Photometric and Morphological Analysis of Fornax Galaxies through S-PLUS

A. V. Smith Castelli, A. R. Lopes, A. Cortesi +10

The photometric and morphological analysis of galaxies in clusters provides invaluable information regarding the evolutionary stage of the cluster itself. In addition, it helps to…

Spontaneous formation of double bars in dark matter dominated galaxies

Kanak Saha, Witold Maciejewski

Although nearly one-third of barred galaxies host an inner, secondary bar, the formation and evolution of double barred galaxies remain unclear. We show here an example model of a…

Spinning dark matter halos promote bar formation

Kanak Saha, Thorsten Naab

Stellar bars are the most common non-axisymmetric structures in galaxies and their impact on the evolution of disc galaxies at all cosmological times can be significant. Classical…

Secular evolution and cylindrical rotation in boxy/peanut bulges: impact of initially rotating classical bulges

Kanak Saha, Ortwin Gerhard

Boxy/peanut bulges are believed to originate from galactic discs through secular processes. A little explored question is how this evolution would be modified if the initial disc w…

Meridional tilt of the stellar velocity ellipsoid during bar buckling instability

Kanak Saha, Daniel Pfenniger, Ronald E. Taam

The structure and evolution of the stellar velocity ellipsoid plays an important role in shaping galaxies undergoing bar driven secular evolution and the eventual formation of a bo…

Spin-up of low mass classical bulges in barred galaxies

Kanak Saha, Inma Martinez-Valpuesta, Ortwin Gerhard

Secular evolution is one of the key routes through which galaxies evolve along the Hubble sequence. Not only the disk undergoes morphological and kinematic changes, but also a pree…
