We present a novel method for classifying two-dimensional orbits in rotating bar potentials based on an empirical proxy for the second integral of motion, calibrated angular momentum (CAM), which is defined as the ratio of the time-averaged angular ...

A Stellar Bar Hidden in an Extreme Gas-rich Disk Galaxy at z = 4.055
The classical picture for the formation of stellar bars—key dynamical drivers of the evolution of galaxies—is through secular evolution of instability in gas-poor, stellar-dominated disks. The detection with the James Webb Space Telescope of stellar bars

Identification and Analysis of Galactic Bars in DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys
We present a comprehensive study of bar structures in the local universe using data from the DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys. Through isophotal analysis of 232,142 galaxies, we identify bars and classify them into strong and weak categories based on ...

Impacts of Bar-driven Shear and Shocks on Star Formation
Bars drive gas inflow. As the gas flows inward, shocks and shear occur along the bar dust lanes. Such shocks and shear can affect the star formation (SF) and change the gas properties.

Formation Mechanisms for Spirals in Barred Galaxies
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.

Do Strong Bars Exhibit Strong Noncircular Motions?
Galactic bars induce characteristic motions deviating from pure circular rotation, known as noncircular motions. As bars are nonaxisymmetric structures, stronger bars are expected to show stronger noncircular motions.
