The relation between dynamics and star formation in barred galaxies [PDF]
We analyze optical and near-infrared data of a sample of 11 barred spiral galaxies, in order to establish a connection between star formation and bar/spiral dynamics. We find that 22 regions located in the bars, and 20 regions in the spiral arms beyond the end of the bar present azimuthal color/age gradients that may be attributed to star formation ...

Chiral Emission from Optical Metasurfaces and Metacavities
Chiral emission with near‐unity degree of circular polarization and strong emission intensities is highly desirable. This review discusses recent experimental demonstrations on chiral emission from achiral emitters that are combined with patterned nanostructures.

The genome of Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus was screened for genes encoding peptidases (n = 320), glycosylases (n = 77), lipases and esterases (n = 320), peptidase inhibitors (n = 65) and allergen‐related proteins (n = 52). Ingestion of cystatin A caused the regulation of cysteine endopeptidases and glycosylases, genes acquired by horizontal gene ...

Gas flow in the barred spiral galaxy NGC 5383
Line-of-sight gas velocities calculated from a numerical hydrodynamical model of a barred spiral galaxy are compared with the observations and models made by Peterson, Rubin, Ford, and Thonnard of the gas flow in NGC 5383.

Abstract Insufficient physical activity is associated with increased relative risk of cardiometabolic disease and is an independent risk factor for mortality. Experimentally reducing physical activity rapidly induces insulin resistance, impairs glucose handling, and drives metabolic inflexibility.

Barred spiral galaxy NGC 3992: Does it have a massive halo
We present new high-resolution H I observations of the barred spiral galaxy NGC 3992 and three nearby satellite systems. These data are employed to estimate the mass and mass distribution of NGC 3992.

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

Properties of bars in the local universe [PDF]
We studied the fraction and properties of bars in a sample of about 3000 galaxies extracted from SDSS-DR5. This represents a volume limited sample with galaxies located between redshift 0.01

Ring or No Ring—Revisiting the Multiphase Nuclear Environment in M31
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.

Effects of Halo Spin on the Formation and Evolution of Bars in Disk Galaxies
The spin of dark halos has been shown to significantly affect bar formation and evolution in disk galaxies. To understand the physical role of halo spin in bar formation, we run N -body simulations of isolated, Milky Way–sized galaxies by varying the ...
