Galactic tides and the shape and orientation of dwarf galaxy satellites

TL;DR: This paper used cosmological N-body simulations from the Aquarius Project to study the tidal effects of a dark matter halo on the shape and orientation of its substructure and found that subhaloes affected by tides become substantially more spherical and show a strong radial alignment toward the center of the host halo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Accretion of satellite galaxies and the density of the Universe

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the observed thinness of spiral disc may not exclude a high-density universe, since current merger rates are relatively small and the associated satellites have not yet merged with the central galaxy.
