内容記述 | The dynamics of interacting galaxies as observed in the present epoch is reviewed. Topics discussed include numerical methods for modeling galactic interactions, the signatures of interacting galaxies due to tidal forces, and events that add mass to a galaxy. The review also covers major mergers between systems of comparable mass, forms of activity triggered or induced by galactic interactions, and galaxies' return to normality and related cosmological issues. Finally, some questions that yet have to be answered are examined. |
