Stellar Ages through the Corners of the Boxy Bulge
E. Valenti, M. Zoccali, A. Renzini +5
In some scenarios for the formation of the Milky Way bulge the stellar population at the edges of the boxy bulge may be younger than those on the minor axis, or close to the Galact…
The effect of bars on the M-sigma relation: offset, scatter and residuals correlations
Markus Hartmann, Victor P. Debattista, David R. Cole +3
We analyse a set of collisionless disc galaxy simulations to study the consequences of bar formation and evolution on the M-sigma relation of supermassive black holes. The redistri…
N-body simulation insights into the X-shaped bulge of the Milky Way: Kinematics and distance to the Galactic Centre
Esko Gardner, Victor P. Debattista, Annie C. Robin +2
Using simulations of box/peanut- (B/P-) shaped bulges, we explore the nature of the X-shape of the Milky Way's bulge. An X-shape can be associated with a B/P-shaped bulge driven by…
Searching for nuclear stellar discs in simulations of star cluster mergers
E. Portaluri, E. M. Corsini, L. Morelli +4
The nuclei of galaxies often host small stellar discs with scale-lengths of a few tens of parsecs and luminosities up to 10^7 Lsun. To investigate the formation and properties of n…
On the Offset of Barred Galaxies From the Black Hole - Relationship
Jonathan S. Brown, Monica Valluri, Juntai Shen +1
We use collisionless -body simulations to determine how the growth of a supermassive black hole (SMBH) influences the nuclear kinematics in both barred and unbarred galaxies. In…
3D kinematics through the X-shaped Milky Way bulge
S. Vásquez, M. Zoccali, V. Hill +10
It has recently been discovered that the Galactic bulge is X-shaped, with the two southern arms of the X both crossing the lines of sight at l=0 and |b|>4, hence producing a double…
