AINUR: Atlas of Images of NUclear Rings
S. Comeron, J. H. Knapen, J. E. Beckman +4
We present the most complete atlas of nuclear rings to date. We include 113 rings found in 107 galaxies, six of which are elliptical galaxies, five are highly inclined disc galaxie…
Fourier Photometric Analysis of Isolated Galaxies in the Context of the AMIGA Project
A. Durbala, R. Buta, J. W. Sulentic +1
We present the results of a Fourier photometric decomposition of a representative sample of ~100 isolated Sb-Sc CIG/AMIGA galaxies. It complements the analysis presented in Durbala…
Pattern Corotation Radii from Potential-Density Phase-Shifts for 153 OSUBGS Sample Galaxies
Ronald J. Buta, Xiaolei Zhang
We apply the potential-density phase-shift method to 153 galaxies in the Ohio State University Bright Galaxy Survey (OSUBGS) to study the general relationship between pattern corot…
Do Bars Drive Spiral Density Waves?
R. J. Buta, J. H. Knapen, B. G. Elmegreen +5
We present deep near-infrared K_s-band AAT IRIS2 observations of a selected sample of nearby barred spiral galaxies, including some with the strongest known bars. The sample covers…
Bars, ovals and lenses in early-type disk galaxies: probes of galaxy evolution
E. Laurikainen, H. Salo, R. Buta +1
The origin of S0 galaxies is discussed in the framework of early mergers in a Cold Dark Matter cosmology, and in a scenario where S0s are assumed to be former spirals stripped of g…
