Dynamical Influence of Bars on the Star Formation in Isolated Galaxies
S. Verley, F. Combes, L. Verdes-Montenegro +2
Star formation depends strongly on both the local environment of galaxies and the internal dynamics of the interstellar medium. To disentangle the two effects, we obtained, in the…
The NUGA project: The Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC3147
V. Casasola, F. Combes, S. Garcia-Burillo +3
We present CO(1-0) and CO(2-1) maps of the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC3147 of the NUclei of GAlaxies (NUGA) sample at 1.8'' x 1.6'' and 1.4'' x 1.2'' resolution respectively. Identifying…
Old stellar counter-rotating components in elliptical-spiral mergers: exploring the GalMer database
P. Di Matteo, F. Combes, A. -L. Melchior +1
We investigate, by means of numerical simulations, the kinematics of elliptical-spiral merger remnants. Counterrotation can appear both in coplanar and in non-coplanar retrograde m…
Atomic Hydrogen Properties of AGN Host Galaxies: HI in 16 NUclei of GAlaxies (NUGA) Sources
S. Haan, E. Schinnerer, C. G. Mundell +2
We present a comprehensive spectroscopic imaging survey of the distribution and kinematics of atomic hydrogen (HI) in 16 nearby spiral galaxies hosting low luminosity AGN, observed…
The coupling of dynamics and molecular chemistry in galaxies
F. Combes
While the best tracer of the molecular component and its dynamics in galaxies is the CO molecule, which excitation is revealed by its isotopic and (2-1)/(1-0) ratios, the denser ga…
Bar formation and galaxy interactions in MOND
O. Tiret, F. Combes
The LCDM model is the most commonly admitted to describe our Universe. In spite of a great success with regard to the large scale structure formation, some problems are still unres…
