Overview of the Near-IR S0 Galaxy Survey (NIRS0S)

open access: yesAdvances in Astronomy, 2011
An overview of the results of the near-IR S0 galaxy survey (NIRS0S) is presented. NIRS0S is a magnitude- (mB⩽12.5 mag) and inclination- (

Galaxy Zoo : are bars responsible for the feeding of active galactic nuclei at 0.2

open access: yes, 2015
We present a new study investigating whether active galactic nuclei (AGN) beyond the local universe are preferentially fed via large-scale bars. Our investigation combines data from Chandra and Galaxy Zoo: Hubble (GZH) in the AEGIS (All-wavelength ...

Conditions for Bar Formation in Bulgeless Disk Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
While bars are commonly observed in disk galaxies, the precise conditions governing their formation remain incompletely understood. To investigate these conditions, we perform a suite of N -body simulations of bulgeless disk galaxies with stellar masses ...

A Stellar Bar Hidden in an Extreme Gas-rich Disk Galaxy at z = 4.055

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The classical picture for the formation of stellar bars—key dynamical drivers of the evolution of galaxies—is through secular evolution of instability in gas-poor, stellar-dominated disks. The detection with the James Webb Space Telescope of stellar bars

Tidally induced bar-like galaxies in simulated clusters

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
One of the scenarios for bar formation in galaxies involves their interaction with a more massive companion. The stellar component is then transformed from a disk into a bar-like prolate spheroid.

Constraining dark energy using real and mock galaxy surveys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this thesis, we study how dark energy may be constrained by measurements of large-scale clustering in future galaxy surveys, and through the imprint of a time-varying large-scale potential on the CMB (the integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect).

Search for Slow Bars in Two Barred Galaxies with Nuclear Structures: NGC 6951 and NGC 7716

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate two barred galaxies with nuclear structures, NGC 6951 and NGC 7716, to examine whether they host slow bars. Using Gemini/GMOS long-slit spectroscopy, we calculate the bar pattern speed with the Tremaine–Weinberg method and detect ...

The complex relationships between active galactic nuclei, bars, and bulges

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Via scaling relations, it is well known that active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and bulges are linked. This link was thought to be driven by mergers, but recent studies show that secular processes are the dominant mechanism of supermassive black hole

Dissecting Bar-induced Stellar Kinematics in Disk Galaxies: The Bisymmetric Model and Rotation Curve Modifications

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We analyze bars formed in N -body simulations to investigate two key aspects of stellar kinematic structure of barred galaxies: the angular distributions of the radial and azimuthal components of stellar velocities, and the impact of bars on rotation ...
