It has recently been argued that the observed ellipticities of galaxies may be determined at least in part by the primordial tidal gravitational field in which the galaxy formed. Long-range correlations in the tidal field could thus lead to…
We study the evolution of angular momenta of ($M_*=10^{10}-10^{12}\msun$) galaxies utilizing large-scale ultra-high resolution cosmological hydrodynamic simulations and find that spin of the stellar component changes direction frequently,…
The amplification of astrophysical magnetic fields takes place via dynamo instability in turbulent environments. The presence of vorticity is crucial for the dynamo to happen. However, the role of vorticity is not yet fully understood. This…
We assume that the individual stars which are located at the peripheral parts of the spiral galaxies are experiencing a drag force acting upon them radially. Such a force might be produced by some sort of a dynamically generated viscous…
We have performed intermediate-resolution VLT/FORS spectroscopy and HST/ACS imaging of 129 field spiral galaxies within the FORS Deep Field. The galaxies cover the redshift range 0.1 < z < 1.0 and comprise all types from Sa to Sdm/Im.…
Subject of this paper is the weak lensing effect on galaxies that show intrinsically correlated ellipticities. In our model, we investigate the distortion of the ellipticity field if the galaxies experience an apparent shift in their…
Gravitational coupling between protoplanetary discs and planets embedded in them leads to the emergence of spiral density waves, which evolve into shocks as they propagate through the disc. We explore the performance of a semi-analytical…
We simulate star formation in two molecular clouds extracted from a larger disc-galaxy simulation with a spatial resolution of ~0.1 pc, one exiting a spiral arm dominated by compression, and another in an inter-arm region more strongly…
We compute a general expression for the contribution of vector perturbations to the redshift-space distortion of galaxy surveys. We show that they contribute to the same multipoles of the correlation function as scalar perturbations and…
Galaxy formation in the current cosmological paradigm is a very complex process in which inflows, outflows, interactions and mergers are common events. These processes can redistribute the angular momentum content of baryons. Recent…
We present the analysis of the spin vector orientation of 5$\,$987 SDSS galaxies having negative redshift from $-$87.6 to $-$0.3 km$\,$s$^{-1}$. Two dimensional observed parameters are used to compute three dimensional galaxy rotation axes…
In the theory of structure formation, galaxies are biased tracers of the underlying matter density field. The statistical relation between galaxy and matter density field is commonly referred as galaxy bias. In this paper, we test the…
We study the stability of gaps opened by a giant planet in a self-gravitating protoplanetary disc. We find a linear instability associated with both the self-gravity of the disc and local vortensity maxima which coincide with gap edges. For…
High-angular resolution observations at sub-millimeter/millimeter wavelengths of disks surrounding young stars have shown that their morphology is made of azimuthally-symmetric or point-symmetric substructures, in some cases with spiral…
2D axis-symmetric hydrodynamical simulations are presented which explore the interaction of stellar and disk winds with surrounding infalling cloud material. The star, and its accompanying disk, blow winds inside a cavity cleared out by an…
We find a emergent azimuthal-angle dependency of the Nielsen-Olesen vortices in the general relativistic situation just after the symmetry breaking at GUT-scale. Using a high-frequency perturbation method, we obtain in the first and second…
CONTEXT. Hydrodynamical cosmological simulations predict flows of the intergalactic medium along the radial vector of the voids, approximately in the direction of the infall of matter at the early stages of the galaxy formation. AIMS. These…

The formation of circumstellar disks is investigated using three-dimensional resistive magnetohydrodynamic simulations, in which the initial prestellar cloud has a misaligned rotation axis with respect to the magnetic field. We examine the…
