PROJECT #2
------------

This project is motivated by a simple quest; to generate a numerical
model that matches a specific observed system.  For those who are
interested in doing this from scratch, get ready for a fairly long
trial-and-error sequence, or look into using Josh Barnes (Identikit)
software (actually this would be a fun project in itself).

Instead of searching for the correct initial conditions and merging
characteristics from scratch, we'll instead poach these properties
from a number of matching models that have already been published.

To do this, we'll following these steps:


1. Please look in this associated directory (project_2_refs) for a number
of papers, read over them, and try to extract the relevant disk and interaction
parameters.  Rarely, if ever, so they give you everything you need, so
you'll have to grab what you can, and fill in reasonable values for what's
missing.


2. Make the initial galaxy models using MakeDiskGalaxy or MakeHubbleType,
whichever matches the input parameters provided best, or whichever you prefer.


3. Combine the two (or more) galaxy models using CombineGalaxies.


4. Simulate the evolution of this system using Gadget, and use the standard
IDL tools to assess how well you did.


5. If you're feeling ambitious, the outputs from this Gadget simulation
could be run through Sunrise and directly compared to the full set of 
multiwavelength observations.
