Galaxy Interactions and Starbursts at High Redshift

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

Using high resolution N-body simulations with hydrodynamics and star formation, we investigate interactions and the resulting starbursts in galaxies with properties typical of z3z\sim 3. We apply spectral population models to produce mock-HST images, and discuss the observed magnitude, color, and morphological appearance of our simulated galaxies in both the rest-UV and rest-visual bands.
