The Origin of the Light Distribution in Spiral Galaxies (2009)
Sanchez-Blazquez, Patricia, Courty, Stephanie, Gibson, Brad, Brook, Christopher
We analyse a high-resolution, fully cosmological, hydrodynamical disc galaxy simulation, to study the source of the double-exponential light profiles seen in many stellar discs, and the effects of...
Hydrodynamical Adaptive Mesh Refinement Simulations of Disk Galaxies (2008)
Gibson, Brad K., Courty, Stephanie, Sanchez-Blazquez, Patricia, Teyssier, Romain, House, Elisa L., Brook, Chris B., ...
To date, fully cosmological hydrodynamic disk simulations to redshift zero have only been undertaken with particle-based codes, such as GADGET, Gasoline, or GCD+. In light of the (supposed)...
Numerical counterparts of GRB host galaxies (2007)
Courty, Stephanie, Bjornsson, Gunnlaugur, Gudmundsson, Einar H.
We explore galaxy properties in general and properties of host galaxies of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) in particular, using N-body/Eulerian hydrodynamic simulations and the stellar population synthesis...
Chemodynamical Simulations of Elliptical Galaxies (2006)
Gibson, Brad K., Sanchez-Blazquez, Patricia, Courty, Stephanie, Kawata, Daisuke
We review recent developments in the field of chemodynamical simulations of elliptical galaxies, highlighting (in an admittedly biased fashion) the work conducted with our cosmological N-body/SPH...
Host Galaxies of Gamma-Ray Bursts and their Cosmological Evolution (2004)
Courty, Stephanie, Bjornsson, Gunnlaugur, Gudmundsson, Einar H.
We use numerical simulations of large scale structure formation to explore the cosmological properties of Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) host galaxies. Among the different sub-populations found in the...
