Multicolor Photometry of Barred Spiral Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1996
B – V and R – I color maps (from CCD imagery obtained at Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory) of six barred spiral galaxies have been used (Horst 1992) to investigate stellar populations within the bars and nuclei. Two-color diagrams show that the distribution of pixel colors largely parallels the expected locus for normal unreddened stars. If the “

The CO-to-H2 Conversion Factor in the Barred Spiral Galaxy M83

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We analyze the CO-to-H _2 conversion factor ( α _CO ) in the nearby barred spiral galaxy M83. We present new H i observations from the VLA and single-dish GBT in the disk of the galaxy, and combine them with maps of CO(1-0) integrated intensity and dust ...

Stellar Bars in Isolated Gas-rich Spiral Galaxies Do Not Slow Down

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Elongated bar-like features are ubiquitous in galaxies, occurring at the centers of approximately two-thirds of spiral disks in the nearby Universe. Due to gravitational interactions between the bar and the other components of galaxies, it is expected ...

UV–Vis Spectra of Carbonic Acid: Rationalizing Experimental Redshifts between Monomer and Bulk based on (H2CO3)n Calculations

open access: yesChemPhysChem, Volume 26, Issue 18, September 19, 2025.
In bulk carbonic acid (e.g., in interstellar icy dust grains) cluster formation produces two distinct UV‐Vis spectral features redshifted by ≈2 eV (25 nm) and by ≈5 eV (80 nm) compared to gas phase single molecule carbonic acid 's adiabatic ionization energy. Theory and experiment were used to investigate the origin of these shifts.

Impacts of Bar-driven Shear and Shocks on Star Formation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
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.

Evidence of a Cloud–Cloud Collision from Overshooting Gas in the Galactic Center

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The Milky Way is a barred spiral galaxy with bar lanes that bring gas toward the Galactic center. Gas flowing along these bar lanes often overshoots, and instead of accreting onto the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ), it collides with the bar lane on the ...

Stellar Populations, Bars and Secular Evolution in Late-Type Galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We have done a robust statistical analysis of UBV color profiles of 257 Sbc barred and unbarred galaxies. We found that there is an excess of barred galaxies among the objects with null or positive (bluish inward) color gradients, which seems to indicate
