Simulating the Milky Way bar and bulge with an initially Sérsic disc
N. Deg, Victor P. Debattista, Lawrence Widrow +3
We model the formation of a bar plus box/peanut bulge (BP bulge) component in a Milky Way-like disc galaxy using simulations of isolated multi-component systems that evolve from eq…
The Galactic Bulge exploration IV.: RR~Lyrae stars as traces of the Galactic bar -- 3D and 5D analysis, extinction variation
Z. Prudil, A. Kunder, L. Beraldo e Silva +10
We created new reddening maps and derived new extinction laws from visual to near-infrared passbands using improved RR~Lyrae period-absolute magnitude-metallicity relations, thus e…
The Profiles of Bars in Spiral Galaxies
Peter Erwin, Victor P. Debattista, Stuart Robert Anderson
We present an analysis of major-axis surface-brightness profiles of bars in a volume-limited sample of 182 barred spiral galaxies, using Spitzer 3.6 micron images. Unlike most prev…
Orbital support and evolution of flat profiles of bars (shoulders)
Leandro Beraldo e Silva, Victor P. Debattista, Stuart R. Anderson +4
Many barred galaxies exhibit upturns (shoulders) in their bar major-axis density profile. Simulation studies have suggested that shoulders are supported by looped orbits, occ…
The interplay between accretion, galaxy downsizing and the formation of box/peanut bulges in TNG50
Stuart Robert Anderson, Steven Gough-Kelly, Victor P. Debattista +6
From the TNG50 cosmological simulation we build a sample of 191 well-resolved barred galaxies with a stellar mass at . We search for box/peanut bulges (BPs…
Testing for relics of past strong buckling events in edge-on galaxies: Simulation predictions and data from SG
V. Cuomo, V. P. Debattista, S. Racz +7
The short-lived buckling instability is responsible for the formation of at least some box/peanut (B/P) shaped bulges, which are observed in most massive, , barred galaxies. N…
The secular growth of bars revealed by flat (peak + shoulders) density profiles
Stuart Robert Anderson, Victor P. Debattista, Peter Erwin +3
The major-axis density profiles of bars are known to be either exponential or 'flat'. We develop an automated non-parametric algorithm to detect flat profiles and apply it to a sui…
Predicted Trends in Milky Way Bulge Proper Motion Rotation Curves: future Prospects for HST and LSST
Steven Gough-Kelly, Victor P. Debattista, William I. Clarkson +5
We use an -body+smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulation of an isolated barred galaxy to study the age dependence of bulge longitudinal proper motion () rotation curves.…
The Arecibo 430-MHz Intermediate Galactic Latitude Survey: Discovery of Nine Radio Pulsars
Jose Navarro, Stuart Anderson, Paulo C. Freire
We have used the Arecibo Radio Telescope to search for millisecond pulsars in two intermediate Galactic latitude regions (7 deg < | b | < 20 deg) accessible to this telescope. For…
