Properties of Early-type, Dry Galaxy Mergers and the Origin of Massive Elliptical Galaxies
The luminosity dependence of kinematical and isophotal properties of elliptical galaxies is investigated using numerical simulations of galaxy merging, combined with semi-analytical models of hierarchical structure formation. Mergers of spiral galaxies as the only formation mechanism for elliptical galaxies can neither reproduce the kinematical and photometric properties of very massive ellipti...
متن کاملEvaluation of New MOND Interpolating Function with Rotation Curves of Galaxies
The rotation curves of a sample of 46 low- and high-surface brightness galaxies are considered in the context of Milgrom's modi_ed dynamics (MOND) to test a new interpolating function proposed by Zhao et al. (2010) [1] and compare with the results of simple interpolating function. The predicted rotation curves are calculated from the total baryonic matter based on the B-band surface photometry,...
متن کاملGalactic Dynamics via General Relativity: A Compilation and New Developments
We consider the consequences of applying general relativity to the description of the dynamics of a galaxy, given the observed flattened rotation curves. The galaxy is modeled as a stationary axially symmetric pressure-free fluid. In spite of the weak gravitational field and the non-relativistic source velocities, the mathematical system is still seen to be non-linear. It is shown that the rota...
متن کاملNgc 5128 as an Isotropic Rotator
NGC 5128 is a well-studied elliptical galaxy with an excellent kinematic data set for planetary nebulae which has been modelled up till now only by solving the Jeans equation for spherical systems. As a first approximation beyond spherical symmetry we model the galaxy as an axisymmetric system flattened by rotation with isotropic velocity distribution. We propose a new version of such an isotro...
متن کاملStar Formation and Metal Production as a Function of Redshift: The Role of the Multi-Phase ISM
We present models of the cosmological star formation and metal production history of (proto-)galaxies with varying axis ratios. More massive and/or roughly spherical systems reach the threshold-metallicity for a transition to a multi-phase interstellar medium earlier than less massive, more flattened systems. Therefore, more flattened, lower-mass systems start to form stars actively at smaller ...
