  • Classification of colliding galaxies 
    Narasimhan, K. S. V. S; Sastry, K. S; Alladin, S. M (Astronomical Society of India, 1996)
    we propose a classification scheme for colliding galaxies based on the fractional changes in their binding energy and the orbital energy. We give examples of actual observed pairs of interacting galaxies for the various ...
  • Classification of colliding galaxies - II 
    Narasimhan, K. S. V. S; Alladin, S. M; Sastry, K. S (Astronomical Society of India, 2000)
    In our Paper I we had classified galaxies in increasing order of the intensity of tidal effects on the basis of transfer of energy from the motion of galaxies to the internal motions. This work has been refined by presenting ...
  • Collisions of galaxies of different masses, forms and sizes 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S; Sastry, K. S; Narasimhan, K. S. V. S (Springer, 2001-03)
    We study the tidal effects of close collisions between two spherical galaxies of various mass and mass distributions by numerical simulations. The galaxies are represented by polytropes of indices n=4 and n=0 which denote ...
  • Escape velocities of interacting galaxies in Hernquist's model 
    Narasimhan, K. S. V. S; Alladin, S. M; Sastry, K. S (Astronomical Society of India, 1999)
  • Head-on collision of disk-sphere galaxies 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S; Sastry, K. S; Narasimhan, K. S. V. S (2006-02)
    Numerical simulations are performed to study the tidal effects of non-merging rapid head-on collision between a disk galaxy and a spherical galaxy. The disk consists of three components – a disk, a bulge and a halo – and ...
  • N-Body Simulation of a Deeply Penetrating Collision Between Unequal Galaxies 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S; Sastry, K. S; Narasimhan, K. S. V. S (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1998-09)
    We study the tidal effects of a deeply penetrating collision between two spherical galaxies, one twice massive but less dense than the other, by numerical simulations. We consider the relative motion of the galaxies to be ...
  • N-body simulations of galaxy collisions 
    Namboodiri, P. M. S; Sastry, K. S; Narasimhan, K. S. V. S (Astronomical Society of India, 2001)
    The tidal effects of close collisions between two spherical galaxies of different mass and mass distributions are studied by numerical simulations. The galaxies are represented by polytropes of indices n = 4 and n = 0 which ...
  • Stellar velocity perturbations in colliding galaxies I 
    Zafarullah, S. N; Narasimhan, K. S. V. S; Sastry, K. S (Astronomical Society of India, 1983-06)
    Expressions for the stellar velocity perturbations in colliding galaxies, valid for any distance of closest approach, are derived analytically under the impulsive approximation for spherical galaxies using a Newtonian ...
  • Tidal interaction between a disc galaxy and a spherical galaxy 
    Zafarullah, S. N; Sastry, K. S (Astronomical Society of Indian, 1987)
    The tidal interaction between a disk and a Plummer model spherical galaxy is studied, extending the impulsive approximation theory to disk galaxies. The fractional change in the internal energy and merger velocities for ...
