Fig. 2.

Projected density of the Q1_ℳ29 model in the z-plane. The projected density is normalised by the initial central projected density of the galaxy, shown at 0, 0.4, and 0.8 rotational times (t_rot), from left to right. We see the gradual emergence of filamentary structures around R = 2–4 kpc.
