The effect of galaxy interactions on star formation rates in the COLIBRE simulations

Observations and theory indicate that galaxy interactions enhance star formation rates (SFRs).

Observations and theory indicate that galaxy interactions enhance star formation rates (SFRs). However, the degree of enhancement and its dependence on the properties of the interacting galaxies vary across different studies. In this work, we use the COLIBRE simulations of…
