Kinematic clues to bar evolution for galaxies in the local universe: why the fastest rotating bars are rotating most slowly
J. Font, J. E. Beckman, I. MartÃnez-Valpuesta +7
We have used Spitzer images of a sample of 68 barred spiral galaxies in the local universe to make systematic measurements of bar length and bar strength. We combine these with pre…
Bar pattern speed and position of the circumnuclear ring in NGC 1097
N. Piñol-Ferrer, K. Fathi, C. Carignan +4
We present the first galactic-scale model of the gas dynamics of the prototype barred Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC1097. We use large scale FaNTOmM Fabry-Perot interferometric data covering…
Star Formation in Outer Rings of S0 galaxies. V. UGC 4599 -- an S0 with gas probably accreted from a filament
O. Sil'chenko, A. Moiseev, D. Oparin +2
Though S0 galaxies are usually thought to be `red and dead', they often demonstrate weak star formation organised in ring structures and located in their outer disks. We try to cla…
Interlocking Resonance Patterns in Galaxy Disks
J. Font, J. E. Beckman, M. Querejeta +5
We have developed a method for finding dynamical resonances in disk galaxies using the change in sense of the radial component of the in-plane velocity at a resonance radius. Using…
Processing diffraction-limited images through innovative Super-Resolution techniques
E. Quevedo, S. Velasco, C. Colodro-Conde +10
In the ELTs era, where the need for versatile and innovative solutions to produce very high spatial resolution images has become a major issue, the search of synergies with other s…
The Spanish Square Kilometre Array White Book
J. A. Acosta-Pulido, I. Agudo, A. Alberdi +116
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) is called to revolutionise essentially all areas of Astrophysics. With a collecting area of about a square kilometre, the SKA will be a transformat…
