Formation of Slowly Rotating Elliptical Galaxies in Major Mergers. A Resolution Study

Formation of Slowly Rotating Elliptical Galaxies in Major Mergers. A Resolution Study

We study resolution effects in numerical simulations of gas-rich (20% of the total baryonic mass) major mergers, and show that the formation of slowly-rotating elliptical galaxies requires a resolution that is beyond the present-day standards to be properly modelled. Our findings show that a high-en...
