摘要:

在这项工作中,我们提出了两个新的$\sim10^9$粒子自洽模拟的合并人马座状矮星系与银河系状盘星系。一种模型是剧烈的合并产生了一个厚圆盘,和一个盖亚-土卫二/香肠状的残余物。另一个是一个高度稳定的光盘,我们用它来说明如何改进的相空间分辨率使我们能够更好地研究已观察到的小,局部体积在银河系中,如$z-v_z$相位螺旋和集群在$v_{\mathrm{R}}-v_ϕ$平面的结构的形成和演变时,与以前的作品相比。局部$z-v_z$相位螺旋与整个盘的全局不对称性明显相关:我们发现2臂和1臂相位螺旋,它们分别与呼吸和弯曲行为相关。大力神般的移动群体是常见的,聚集在$v_{\mathrm{R}}-v_ϕ$在本地数据样本的模拟。这些群体从星系内部向外迁移,即使在没有星系棒的情况下也与观测到的金属丰度趋势相匹配。我们目前发布了最合适的“当今”合并快照以及未受干扰的星系进行比较。

英文摘要:

In this work we present two new $\sim10^9$ particle self-consistent simulations of the merger of a Sagittarius-like dwarf galaxy with a Milky Way-like disc galaxy. One model is a violent merger creating a thick disc, and a Gaia-Enceladus/Sausage like remnant. The other is a highly stable disc which we use to illustrate how the improved phase space resolution allows us to better examine the formation and evolution of structures that have been observed in small, local volumes in the Milky Way, such as the $z-v_z$ phase spiral and clustering in the $v_{\mathrm{R}}-v_ϕ$ plane when compared to previous works. The local $z-v_z$ phase spirals are clearly linked to the global asymmetry across the disc: we find both 2-armed and 1-armed phase spirals, which are related to breathing and bending behaviors respectively. Hercules-like moving groups are common, clustered in $v_{\mathrm{R}}-v_ϕ$ in local data samples in the simulation. These groups migrate outwards from the inner galaxy, matching observed metallicity trends even in the absence of a galactic bar. We currently release the best fitting `present day' merger snapshots along with the unperturbed galaxies for comparison.
