Diffusion in barred-spiral galaxies

, 2010
We characterize the radial migration of stars in the disk plane by calculating the diffusion coefficient and the diffusion time-scale for a bulge-disk N-body self-consistent system with a marginally-stable Toomre-Q parameter. We find that diffusion is not constant in time, but follows the evolution of the bar, and becomes maximum near the corotation ...

PHANGS–JWST First Results: Massive Young Star Clusters and New Insights from JWST Observations of NGC 1365

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
A primary new capability of JWST is the ability to penetrate the dust in star-forming galaxies to identify and study the properties of young star clusters that remain embedded in dust and gas. In this Letter we combine new infrared images taken with JWST

Effect of bars on the galaxy properties

, 2016
Aims: With the aim of assessing the effects of bars on disc galaxy properties, we present an analysis of different characteristics of spiral galaxies with strong, weak and without bars.

Nobeyama CO Atlas of Nearby Spiral Galaxies: Distribution of Molecular Gas in Barred and Nonbarred Spiral Galaxies [PDF]

Publications of the Astronomical Society of Japan, 2007
Abstract The data from a CO ($J$ = 1–0) mapping survey of 40 nearby spiral galaxies, performed with the Nobeyama 45 m telescope, are presented. The criteria of the sample selection were: (1) RC3 morphological type ranging from Sa to Scd, (2) distance of less than 25 Mpc, (3) inclination angle less than 79$^{\circ}$ (RC3), (4) flux at 100$

First Look at z > 1 Bars in the Rest-frame Near-infrared with JWST Early CEERS Imaging

The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Stellar bars are key drivers of secular evolution in galaxies and can be effectively studied using rest-frame near-infrared (NIR) images, which trace the underlying stellar mass and are less impacted by dust and star formation than rest-frame UV or ...

Short-term dynamical evolution of grand-design spirals in barred galaxies

, 2015
We investigate the short-term dynamical evolution of stellar grand-design spiral arms in barred spiral galaxies using a three-dimensional (3D) $N$-body/hydrodynamic simulation.

Formation of the spiral structure in SB galaxies [PDF]

Astronomy Letters, 2001
We consider a scenario of formation of the spiral structure in barred galaxies. This scenario includes the new non-resonant mechanism of elongation of spirals, due to the characteristic behaviour of the gravitational potential beyond the principal spiral arms.

Comparison of physical characteristics of mass and luminosity function of disk systems in barred and unbarred spiral galaxies

مجلة بغداد للعلوم
Among the most important ways to investigate galaxies' distribution over cosmic time is the luminosity function LF in terms of baryonic disc mass ψS(Mb), magnitude  .

A New Mechanism for Radial Migration in Galactic Disks: Spiral-Bar Resonance Overlap [PDF]

, 2010
While it has long been known that a large number of short-lived transient spirals can cause stellar migration, here we report that another mechanism is also effective at mixing disks of barred galaxies.

Spirals and Rings in Barred Galaxies by the ROTASE Model

International Journal of Physics, 2021
This paper extends the application of the ROTASE model for the formation of spiral arms of disc galaxies, questions and confusions from readers about this model are addressed. The optical trail effect behind the spiral arm rotation is the natural consequence of the model.
