Comparing peanut-shaped `bulges' to N-body simulations and orbital calculations
G. Aronica, E. Athanassoula, M. Bureau +4
We present a near-infrared K_n-band photometric study of edge-on galaxies with a box/peanut-shaped `bulge'. The morphology of the galaxies is analysed using unsharp masking and fit…
