Velocity dispersion of stars and gas motion in double - barred galaxies 1
نویسنده
چکیده
The current state of the problem of double-barred galaxies investigation is reviewed. The necessity for application of the panoramic spectroscopy methods to a detailed study of kinematics of these objects is being proved. The first results of observing double-barred galaxies at the 6m telescope using the multipupil spectrograph MPFS and the scanning interferometer Fabry-Perot are described.

Two-dimensional spectroscopy of double-barred galaxies
We describe the results of our spectroscopy for a sample of barred galaxies whose inner regions exhibit an isophotal twist commonly called a secondary bar. The line-of-sight velocity fields of the ionized gas and stars and the light-of-sight velocity dispersion fields of the stars were constructed from two-dimensional spectroscopy with the 6m Special Astrophysical Observatory telescope. We dete...

The SAURON integral field spectrograph was used to observe the central area of the barred spiral galaxy M100 (NGC 4321). M100 contains a nuclear ring of star formation, fueled by gas channeled inward by the galaxy's bar. We present maps of emission line strengths, absorption line strength indices, and the gas velocity dispersion across the field. The Hβ emission is strongest in the ring, along ...

Results of optical and NIR spectral and photometric observations of a sample of candidate double-barred galaxies are presented. Velocity fields and velocity dispersion maps of stars and ionized gas, continuum and emission-line images were constructed from integral-field spectroscopy observations carried out at the 6m telescope (BTA) of SAO RAS, with the MPFS spectrograph and the scanning Fabry-...
متن کاملMeasurement of radial velocities and velocity dispersion of stars in circumnuclear regions of galaxies using the 2D spectrosopy technique
A procedure is described of construction of velocity fields and velocity dispersion of the stellar component in the central regions of galaxies on the basis of data obtained with the integral field spectrograph MPFS. Cross-correlation and Fourier quotients techniques adapted for 2D spectra reduction are used. A detailed discussion is given of the problems of providing for the instrumental profi...
متن کاملObservable Properties of Double-barred Galaxies in N-body Simulations
Although at least one quarter of early-type barred galaxies host secondary stellar bars embedded in their large-scale primary counterparts, the dynamics of such double barred galaxies are still not well understood. Recently we reported success at simulating such systems in a repeatable way in collisionless systems. In order to further our understanding of double-barred galaxies, here we charact...
