Orbital dynamics of three-dimensional bars: III. Boxy/Peanut edge-on profiles
P. A. Patis, Ch. Skokos, E. Athanassoula
We present families, and sets of families, of periodic orbits that provide building blocks for boxy and peanut (hereafter b/p) edge-on profiles. We find cases where the b/p profile…
Orbital dynamics of three-dimensional bars: II. Investigation of the parameter space
Ch. Skokos, P. A. Patsis, E. Athanassoula
We investigate the orbital structure in a class of 3D models of barred galaxies. We consider different values of the pattern speed, of the strength of the bar and of the parameters…
Orbital dynamics of three-dimensional bars: I. The backbone of 3D bars. A fiducial case
Ch. Skokos, P. A. Patsis, E. Athanassoula
In this series of papers we investigate the orbital structure of 3D models representing barred galaxies. In the present introductory paper we use a fiducial case to describe all fa…
