Bar Classification based on the Potential Map

Yun Hee Lee, Myeong-Gu Park, Hong Bae Ann +2

We introduce a new approach to classify barred galaxies that utilizes the transverse-to-radial force ratio map (ratio map, hereafter) in a different manner from previous studies. W…

Effects of Gas on Formation and Evolution of Stellar Bars and Nuclear Rings in Disk Galaxies

Woo-Young Seo, Woong-Tae Kim, SungWon Kwak +3

We run self-consistent simulations of Milky Way-sized, isolated disk galaxies to study formation and evolution of a stellar bar as well as a nuclear ring in the presence of gas. We…

Effects of Spiral Arms on Star Formation in Nuclear Rings of Barred-spiral Galaxies

Woo-Young Seo, Woong-Tae Kim

We use hydrodynamic simulations to study the effect of spiral arms on the star formation rate (SFR) occurring in nuclear rings of barred-spiral galaxies. We find that spiral arms c…

Star Formation in Nuclear Rings of Barred Galaxies

Woo-Young Seo, Woong-Tae Kim

Nuclear rings in barred galaxies are sites of active star formation. We use hydrodynamic simulations to study temporal and spatial behavior of star formation occurring in nuclear r…

Gaseous Structures in Barred Galaxies: Effects of the Bar Strength

Woong-Tae Kim, Woo-Young Seo, Yonghwi Kim

Using hydrodynamic simulations, we investigate the physical properties of gaseous substructures in barred galaxies and their relationships with the bar strength. The gaseous medium…

Central Regions of Barred Galaxies: Two-Dimensional Non-self-gravitating Hydrodynamic Simulations

Woong-Tae Kim, Woo-Young Seo, James M. Stone +2

The inner regions of barred galaxies contain substructures such as off-axis shocks, nuclear rings, and nuclear spirals. These substructure may affect star formation, and control th…
