Surface photometry of barred spiral galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1990
La photometrie de surface detaillee a ete realisee pour 6 galaxies spirales barrees de premier type en utilisant des plaques photographiques a haute resolution. Les observations et les reductions des donnees sont presentees et les profils azimutaux de la luminosite sont extraits et analyses.

Chaotic Spiral Galaxies

open access: yes, 2011
We study the role of asymptotic curves in supporting the spiral structure of a N-body model simulating a barred spiral galaxy. Chaotic orbits with initial conditions on the unstable asymptotic curves of the main unstable periodic orbits follow the shape ...

The Role of the Magnetic Field Orientation on the Variability of the Martian Topside Ionosphere Using MARSIS‐Mars Express Data

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 130, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract Mars, without a global dipole magnetic field, has its atmosphere directly exposed to the impinging solar wind, producing a complex interaction due to the remnant crustal magnetic fields, which, especially in the southern hemisphere, have spatially varying strengths and inclinations. “Mini‐magnetospheres” generated over the strong crustal field

Automated Detection of Galactic Rings from Sloan Digital Sky Survey Images

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Morphological features in galaxies—like spiral arms, bars, rings, and tidal tails, etc.—carry information about their structure, origin, and evolution.

Secular Evolution and the Formation of Pseudobulges in Disk Galaxies

open access: yes, 2004
We review internal processes of secular evolution in galaxy disks, concentrating on the buildup of dense central features that look like classical, merger-built bulges but that were made slowly out of disk gas. We call these pseudobulges. As an existence

ALMA-LEGUS. II. The Influence of Subgalactic Environments on Molecular Cloud Properties

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We compare the molecular cloud properties in subgalactic regions of two galaxies, barred spiral NGC 1313, which is forming many massive clusters, and flocculent spiral NGC 7793, which is forming significantly fewer massive clusters despite having a ...

Bars do drive spiral density waves

open access: yes, 2010
Recently, Buta etal. (2009) examined the question "Do Bars Drive Spiral Density Waves?", an idea supported by theoretical studies and also from a preliminary observational analysis Block etal (2004).

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 ...
