The EDGE-CALIFA survey: The role of spiral arms and bars in driving central molecular gas concentrations

Si-Yue Yu, Veselina Kalinova, Dario Colombo +9

Shocks and torques produced by non-axisymmetric structures such as spiral arms and bars may transport gas to galaxy central regions. We test this hypothesis by studying the depende…
