The Milky Way Spiral Arm Pattern

Peter Englmaier, Martin Pohl, Nicolai Bissantz

A complete map of the 3D distribution of molecular (CO) gas was constructed using a realistic dynamical model of the gas flow in the barred potential of the Milky Way. The map show…

3D Distribution of Molecular Gas in the Barred Milky Way

Martin Pohl, Peter Englmaier, Nicolai Bissantz

We present a new model of the three-dimensional distribution of molecular gas in the Milky Way Galaxy, based on CO line data. Our analysis is based on a gas-flow simulation of the…

Milky Way Gas Dynamics

P. Englmaier, O. Gerhard, ;

The Milky Way is made up of a central bar, a disk with embedded spiral arms, and a dark matter halo. Observational and theoretical constraints for the characteristic parameters of…

Dynamical Decoupling of Nested Bars: Self-Gravitating Gaseous Nuclear Bars

Peter Englmaier, Isaac Shlosman

A substantial fraction of barred galaxies host additional nuclear bars which tumble with pattern speeds exceeding those of the large-scale (primary) stellar bars. We have investiga…

NUclei of GAlaxies (NUGA): the IRAM Survey of Low Luminosity AGN

S. Garcia-Burillo, F. Combes, A. Eckart +8

The NUGA project is the first high-resolution (0.5''-1'') CO survey of low luminosity AGN including the full sequence of activity types (Seyfert 1--2 and LINERs). NUGA aims to stud…
