Abstract:
Based on parallel three-dimensional simulation of N-body and gas self-consistent dynamics, we study the behavior of
hot coronal gas in the colliding galaxies with “live” dark matter halos.
We model a few scenarios of the galactic collisions including “bull-eye” and non-central ones, and use
different values of the initial velocities of the colliding galaxies. Taking into account the self-gravity, we demonstrate that the collision of gaseous and
stellar components does not lead to the formation of a gaseous
“protogalaxy” observed in some numerical simulations. Also,
we show that about sixty percent of hot halo gas is expelled into intergalactic space during the collision.
Numerical simulations show that a considerable amount of gas (up to 70% for a bull-eye collisions) exchanges between two colliding galaxies.
