SDSS-IV MaNGA: pattern speeds of barred galaxies
Rui Guo, Shude Mao, E. Athanassoula +5
The MaNGA project has obtained IFU data for several thousand nearby galaxies, including barred galaxies. With the two dimensional spectral and kinematic information provided by IFU…
Linking bar- and interaction-driven molecular gas concentration with centrally-enhanced star formation in EDGE-CALIFA galaxies
Ryan Chown, Cheng Li, E. Athanassoula +6
We study the spatially resolved star formation history and molecular gas distribution of 58 nearby galaxies, using integral field spectroscopy from the CALIFA survey and CO $J=1\ri…
Unveiling the environment and faint features of the isolated galaxy CIG 96 with deep optical and HI observations
P. Ramirez-Moreta, L. Verdes-Montenegro, J. Blasco-Herrera +21
Asymmetries in HI in galaxies are often caused by the interaction with close companions, making isolated galaxies an ideal framework to study secular evolution. The AMIGA project h…
Tidally induced bars in gas-rich dwarf galaxies orbiting the Milky Way
Grzegorz Gajda, Ewa L. Łokas, E. Athanassoula
Bars in galaxies may form not only through instability, but also as a result of an interaction with another galaxy. In particular, they may appear in disky dwarf galaxies interacti…
Tidally induced morphology of M33 in hydrodynamical simulations of its recent interaction with M31
Marcin Semczuk, Ewa L. Lokas, Jean-Baptiste Salomon +2
We present a hydrodynamical model of M33 and its recent interaction with M31. This scenario was previously proposed in the literature in order to explain the distorted gaseous and…
Using N-body simulations to understand the chemo-dynamical evolution of the inner Milky Way
E. Athanassoula
I present examples of how chemo-dynamical N-body simulations can help understanding the structure and evolution of the inner Galaxy. Such simulations reproduce the observed links b…
