Abstract: Using N-body simulations of the interaction between an accreting satellite and M31, we have successfully reproduced observed distribution of the Andromeda stellar stream, and find physical constraints about the progenitor dwarf galaxy. Furthermore, we show such interaction suspends the AGN activity of galaxies due to stripping of a torus as a mass reservoir of the AGN.
