Tests of the Radial Tremaine-Weinberg Method
Sharon E. Meidt, Richard J. Rand, Michael R. Merrifield +2
At the intersection of galactic dynamics, evolution and global structure, issues such as the relation between bars and spirals and the persistence of spiral patterns can be address…
Observable Properties of Double-Barred Galaxies in N-Body Simulations
Juntai Shen, Victor P. Debattista
Although at least one quarter of early-type barred galaxies host secondary stellar bars embedded in their large-scale primary counterparts, the dynamics of such double barred galax…
Long-Lived Double-Barred Galaxies From Pseudo-Bulges
Victor P. Debattista, Juntai Shen
A large fraction of barred galaxies host secondary bars that are embedded in their large-scale primary counterparts. These are common also in gas poor early-type barred galaxies. T…
Galactic Warps Induced By Cosmic Infall
Juntai Shen, J. A. Sellwood
Recent ideas for the origin and persistence of the warps commonly observed in disc galaxies have focused on cosmic infall. We present N-body simulations of an idealized form of cos…
The AGN-Disk Dynamics Connection
J. A. Sellwood, Juntai Shen
Any connection between central activity and the large-scale dynamics of disk galaxies requires an efficient mechanism to remove angular momentum from the orbiting material. The onl…
The Survival of Bars with Central Mass Concentrations
Juntai Shen, J. A. Sellwood
Many barred galaxies today harbor massive concentrations of gas in their centers, and some are known to possess supermassive black holes (SBHs) and their associated stellar cusps.…
