Morphologies arising from the gas flow in the innermost kiloparsec of barred galaxy models

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. We study a series of response models to investigate the formation of specific morphological features in the central 1 kpc region of the gas component in barred spiral galaxies. Aims. We aim to understand how structures, such as nuclear rings and

Coevolution of Bar and Spiral Arms in TNG50 Simulations Using Information Theory

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Using Information Theory, we investigate the coevolution of bars and spiral arms in barred-spiral galaxies from the cosmological magnetohydrodynamic Illustris TNG50 simulations. We first calculate Mutual Information (MI) between a structural or kinematic

Tracing Coherent Gas Structures in the Central Region of the Starburst Galaxy NGC 253. II. Gas Excitation and Star Formation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Molecular gas in the central region of the starburst galaxy NGC 253 is complicated because of the combination of different gas kinematics, including stellar feedback, noncircular motions, and magnetic activity.

The Clearing Timescale for Infrared-selected Star Clusters in M83 with HST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present an analysis of Hubble Space Telescope data from Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3)/Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer, WFC3/IR, and the Advanced Camera for Surveys, investigating the young stellar cluster (YSC) population in the face-on spiral galaxy ...

The NGC 3109 Satellite System: The First Systematic Resolved Search for Dwarf Galaxies Around an SMC-mass Host

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We report the results of the deepest search to date for dwarf galaxies around NGC 3109, a barred spiral galaxy with a mass similar to that of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), using a semiautomated search method. Using the Dark Energy Camera, we survey a

Ring or No Ring—Revisiting the Multiphase Nuclear Environment in M31

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Nuclear rings, prevalent in barred galaxies, are essential to understanding gas transport toward galactic nuclei. However, the peculiar nuclear ring in our neighboring galaxy M31 remains poorly understood.
