The Local Galaxy Density and the Bars of Spiral Galaxies [PDF]
Using a variety of parameters of local galaxy density, we have examined the effects of the environmental density on the presence of bar structures in spiral galaxies of various morphological types. For an extensive sample of nearby galaxies, listed in the ``Nearby Galaxies Catalogue'' (Tully, 1988a), we have found that the spirals characterized by a ...

Nobeyama CO Atlas of Nearby Spiral Galaxies: Distribution of Molecular Gas in Barred and Non-barred Spiral Galaxies [PDF]
The data from a CO(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 in the range Sa to Scd, (2) distance less than 25 Mpc, (3) inclination angle less than 79deg (RC3), (4) flux at 100 um higher than ~ 10 Jy, (5) spiral ...

The abundance gradient of NGC1365: evidence for a recently formed bar in an archetypal barred spiral galaxy? [PDF]
Emission-line optical spectrophotometry for 55 H ii regions in the prominent southern barred spiral galaxy NGC 1365 is presented. Nebular diagnostic diagrams such as (N ii)/(O ii) and (S ii)/(O ii) versus ((O ii) + (O iii))/Hshow that the H ii regions of

The Distribution of Bar and Spiral Strengths in Disk Galaxies [PDF]
The distribution of bar strengths in disk galaxies is a fundamental property of the galaxy population that has only begun to be explored. We have applied the bar/spiral separation method of Buta, Block, and Knapen to derive the distribution of maximum relative gravitational bar torques, Q_b, for 147 spiral galaxies in the statistically well-defined ...

Formation Mechanisms for Spirals in Barred Galaxies [PDF]
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.

Pattern speeds in barred spiral galaxies [PDF]
Des simulations a N corps montrent comment la barre des galaxies SB tourne, se separe de la structure spirale, la rattrappe et se connecte de nouveau au bras spiraux. Cela provient de vitesses de rotation differentes pour la barre et les bras spiraux.

Detecting a disk bending wave in a barred-spiral galaxy at redshift 4.4 [PDF]
The recent discovery of barred spiral galaxies in the early universe (z > 2) poses questions of how these structures form and how they influence galaxy evolution in the early universe.

Herschel and Odin observations of H2O, CO, CH, CH+, and [N II] in the barred spiral galaxy NGC 1365 [PDF]
Context. The Odin satellite is now into its twentieth year of operation, much surpassing its design life of two years. One of its major astronomical pursuits was the search for and study of water vapor in diverse regions of the Solar System and the Milky
