Counter-rotating bars within bars
The dynamical stability and evolution of disc galaxies with different disc thickness as well as various fraction and concentration of stellar counter-rotation is investigated with self-consistent numerical simulations. In particular, systems of nested, counter-rotating, stable bars are presented. As for the direct case, the nuclear secondary bar rotates faster than the primary bar. Contrary to ...
متن کاملBulges or Bars from Secular Evolution?
We use high resolution collisionless N -body simulations to study the secular evolution of disk galaxies and in particular the final properties of disks that suffer a bar and perhaps a bar-buckling instability. Although we find that bars are not destroyed by the buckling instability, when we decompose the radial density profiles of the secularly-evolved disks into inner Sérsic and outer exponen...
متن کاملEstablishing the Connection between Peanut-shaped Bulges and Galactic Bars
It has been suggested that the peanut-shaped bulges seen in some edge-on disk galaxies are due to the presence of a central bar. Although bars cannot be detected photometrically in edge-on galaxies, we show that barred potentials produce a strong kinematic signature in the form of double-peaked line-of-sight velocity distributions with a characteristic “figure-ofeight” variation with radius. We...
متن کاملLetter to the Editor Hidden bars and boxy bulges
It has been suggested that the boxy and peanut-shaped bulges found in some edge-on galaxies are galactic bars viewed from the side. We investigate this hypothesis by presenting emission-line spectra for a sample of 10 edge-on galaxies that display a variety of bulge morphologies. To avoid potential biases in the classification of this morphology, we use an objective measure of bulge shape. Gene...
متن کاملOn Bars, Bulges and Fuelling of Active Galactic Nuclei
Both fuelling of a central black hole and the build-up of bulges are – at least theoretically – facilitated by non-axisymmetric potentials. It is argued here that the recently established surface brightness division between bulge-dominated galaxies that dominate the local type 2 AGN luminosity function, and diskdominated galaxies that host (at best) weak AGN can be understood in terms of a simp...
