Simulation of Mass Transport in Disk Galaxies
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 May 2016
Extract
The large-scale dynamics and evolution of disk galaxies is controlled by the angular-momentum transport provided by non-axisymmetric perturbances through their gravity torques. To continuously maintain such gravitational instabilities, the presence of the gas component and its dissipative character are essential.
