Effects of Spiral Arms on Star Formation in Nuclear Rings of Barred-spiral Galaxies
Woo-Young Seo, Woong-Tae Kim
We use hydrodynamic simulations to study the effect of spiral arms on the star formation rate (SFR) occurring in nuclear rings of barred-spiral galaxies. We find that spiral arms c…

Nature of the Wiggle Instability of Galactic Spiral Shocks
Woong-Tae Kim, Yonghwi Kim, Jeong-Gyu Kim
Gas in disk galaxies interacts nonlinearly with an underlying stellar spiral potential to form galactic spiral shocks. While numerical simulations typically show that spiral shocks…
