Shell galaxies - "sticky particles" hydrodynamical simulations
Zimandl, Martin ; Jungwiert, Bruno (advisor) ; Šolc, Martin (referee)
Shell galaxies are usually ellipticals with concentric faint arc-like stellar structures with sharp outer edges. They originate from galactic collisions (so called mergers). According to observations, some galaxies has also gaseous structures, that can be associated with stellar shells. We carry out a few numerical simulations, in which we recreate gaseous shells throug radial collisions of small and large elliptical galaxies. Then we analyze the differences between stellar and gaseous shells. Our simulations are based on earlier models, which describes gas by using so called "sticky-particles" hydrodynamics. This approach was so far quite succesful in resolving origin of gaseous shells. Our conclusion is, that gas in preset galaxies is not sufficient to make any difference. Higher quantities on the other hand has significant effect. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Velocity dispersion in open clusters
Zimandl, Martin ; Šubr, Ladislav (advisor) ; Jungwiert, Bruno (referee)
There have been measured higher values of velocity dispersion in cores of some open clusters, than was expected for cluster in virial equilibrium. In this writing we'll try to find causes of this effect. To do that, we'll look into two computed numerical models of open clusters, wich shows similiar diversion. On simple observations and statistical analysis we'll design methods to accurately calcula te velocity dispersion and afterwards we'll verify correctness of these methods. Then we'll use these methods to investigate evolution of velocity dispersion in both used models of open clusters. 1
