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

Physical Properties of Gas Departing from Circular Rotation at 50 pc Scales Using the PHANGS-MUSE Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Noncircular (NC) motions have been observed across various spatial scales in disk galaxies, yet the physical properties of the gas involved in these motions remain poorly constrained.

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.

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 ...

The two-phase formation history of spiral galaxies traced by the cosmic evolution of the bar fraction

open access: yes, 2012
We study the evolution of galactic bars and the link with disk and spheroid formation in a sample of zoom-in cosmological simulations. Our simulation sample focuses on galaxies with present-day stellar masses in the 10^10-10^11 Msun range, in field and ...

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.
