Invariant manifolds in barred galaxy simulations. II. Quantitative evidence of manifold-trapping in spiral arm formation
Toni Soler-Terricabras, Mercè Romero-Gómez, Santi Roca-Fà brega
The main goal of this work is to quantify, through a robust methodology, the contribution of invariant manifolds to the formation of spiral arms in a pure N-body simulation, settin…

Arm morphology in off-centre barred galaxies
P. Sánchez-MartÃn, M. López-Vilamajó, M. Romero-Gómez +1
Many barred galaxies, including the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), display strong lopsidedness and off-centre bars. The dynamical connection between bar-disc misalignments, internal…
