| dc.description | A review on numerical simulations of galaxy formation is given. Different numerical methods to solve collisionless and gas dynamical systems are outlined and one particular simulation technique, Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics, is discussed in some detail. After a short discussion of the most relevant physical processes which affect the dynamics of the gas, the success and shortcomings of state of the art simulations are discussed via the example of the formation of disk galaxies. | |
