Age distributions of star clusters in spiral and barred galaxies as a test for theories of spiral structure [PDF]

open access: bronze, 2010
We consider models of gas flow in spiral galaxies in which the spiral structure has been excited by various possible mechanisms: a global steady density wave, self-gravity of the stellar disc and an external tidal interaction, as well as the case of a ...

Dynamically Driven Evolution of Molecular Gas in the Barred Spiral Galaxy M83 Traced by CO J = 2–1/1–0 Line Ratio Variations

open access: goldThe Astrophysical Journal
We show the variations of the CO J = 2–1/1–0 line ratio ( R _21/10 ) across the barred spiral galaxy M83, using the 46 pc resolution data from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array. The R _21/10 map clearly evidences the systematic large-scale

Formation of Major Types of Galaxies Based on the Energy Circulation Theory

open access: yesReports in Advances of Physical Sciences, 2022
The standard cosmology can answer almost nothing about how the structure of a galaxy is formed. It expects a supermassive black hole at the center and dark matter in the halo to explain the circulation of stars and its velocity.

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

open access: yesThe 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 ...

Exploring the Magnetic Field Geometry in NGC 891 with SOFIA/HAWC+

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Stratospheric Observatory For Infrared Astronomy/High-resolution Airborne Wideband Camera-plus 154 μ m Far-Infrared polarimetry observations of the well-studied edge-on galaxy NGC 891 are analyzed and compared to simple disk models with ordered (planar ...

J0107a: A Barred Spiral Dusty Star-forming Galaxy at z = 2.467

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Dusty star-forming galaxies (DSFGs) are among the most massive and active star-forming galaxies during the cosmic noon. Theoretical studies have proposed various formation mechanisms of DSFGs, including major merger-driven starbursts and secular star ...

Star formation efficiency in the Barred Spiral Galaxy NGC 4303 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We present new $^{12}$CO(J=1-0) observations of the barred galaxy NGC 4303 using the Nobeyama 45m telescope (NRO45) and the Combined Array for Research in Millimeter-wave Astronomy (CARMA). The H$\alpha$ images of barred spiral galaxies often show active

Dense Cloud Formation and Star Formation in a Barred Galaxy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We investigate the properties of massive, dense clouds formed in a barred galaxy and their possible relation to star formation, performing a two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulation with the gravitational potential obtained from the 2Mass data from the ...

The Visibility of Galactic Bars and Spiral Structure At High Redshifts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
We investigate the visibility of galactic bars and spiral structure in the distant Universe by artificially redshifting 101 B-band CCD images of local spiral galaxies from the Ohio State University Bright Spiral Galaxy Survey. Our artificially redshifted
