Description


The simulation survey of tidally perturbed galaxies provides images of 84 different encounters that vary orbit tilt of companion orbit, perigalacticon distance ratio of primary galaxy mass to companion mass, and the amount of inert matter in the primary galaxy. In total 1764 galaxy images are available in the survey. This data set contains 84 separate simulations, each simulation is run for 1000 time steps, producing image output of the star particles and gas particles separately every 50 time steps. The first 21 images represent the "gas", and the second 21 images represent the "stars". Time steps for matching "gas" and "stars" are the same. There are [256,256] grid points on a Cartesian coordinate system. The renormalized densities are stored as 8-bit floating point numbers. The data have been put into FITS. Each header specifies the parameters for that simulation.
