Supernovae and their host galaxies - II. The relative frequencies of supernovae types in spirals

open access: yes, 2014
We present an analysis of the relative frequencies of different supernova (SN) types in spirals with various morphologies and in barred or unbarred galaxies.

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.

Orbital Support and Evolution of CX/OX Structures in Boxy/Peanut Bars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Barred galaxies exhibit boxy/peanut or X-shapes (BP/X) protruding from their disks in edge-on views. Two types of BP/X morphologies exist depending on whether the X-wings meet at the center (CX) or are off-centered (OX).

Comparison of Bar Formation Mechanisms. II. Does a Tidally Induced Bar Grow Faster than an Internally Developed Bar?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Bar structures can form internally due to the instability of their host galaxies or externally due to perturbations from other galaxies. We systematically quantify the growth timescales ( τ _bar ) of bars formed through these two mechanisms with a series

Enhanced star formation: The importance of bars in spiral galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes
It was found that among an IR luminous subset of nearby spiral galaxies, nearly all of the systems with IRAS colors and luminosities indicative of enhanced star formation are barred.

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
