Simulations of shell galaxies with GADGET-2: Multi-generation shell systems

Published 13 Mar 2011 in astro-ph.GA and astro-ph.CO | (1103.2562v1)

Abstract: As the missing complement to existing studies of shell galaxies, we carried out a set of self-consistent N-body simulations of a minor merger forming a stellar shell system within a giant elliptical galaxy. We discuss the effect of a phenomenon possibly associated with the galaxy merger simulations --- a presence of multiple generations of shells.
