N-body Simulations of Galaxy Bars Generated by Satellite Collisions: Effects of the Impact Geometry

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Bars, a common and important structure in disk galaxies, can be induced by galaxy interactions. Although there have been some studies on bar formation in flybys or collisions, the vast parameter space still leaves many scenarios that require further ...

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 ...

The Impact of Bar-induced Noncircular Motions on the Measurement of Galactic Rotation Curves

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We study the impact of bar-induced noncircular motions on the derivation of galactic rotation curves (RCs) using hydrodynamic simulations and observational data from the PHANGS-ALMA survey.

Barred Galaxies in the Abell 901/2 Supercluster with STAGES

open access: yes, 2009
We present a study of bar and host disk evolution in a dense cluster environment, based on a sample of ~800 bright (MV

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.

Inner Molecular Rings in Barred Galaxies: BIMA SONG CO Observations

open access: yes, 2002
Although inner star-forming rings are common in optical images of barred spiral galaxies, observational evidence for the accompanying molecular gas has been scarce.

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).

The Tully-Fisher Relation of Barred Galaxies

open access: yes, 2003
We present new data exploring the scaling relations, such as the Tully-Fisher relation (TFR), of bright barred and unbarred galaxies. A primary motivation for this study is to establish whether barredness correlates with, and is a consequence of, virial ...
