Abstract

We present the results of numerical simulations of equal mass, colliding disk galaxies in which the two rotation axes are oriented at approximately 45 degrees prior to collision. Both impact parameter and velocity are varied, and the resulting N-body/Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics simulations provide insight into the interpretation of some local colliding systems. We acknowledge support of DOE-LLNL contract B506657.
