Context. The tumbling pattern of a bar is the main parameter characterising its dynamics. From numerical simulations, its evolution since bar formation is...
Bar pattern speeds in CALIFA galaxies. I. Fast bars across the Hubble sequence
Context. The bar pattern speed (Ωb) is defined as the rotational frequency of the bar, and it determines the bar dynamics. Several methods have been proposed...
Bar pattern speeds in CALIFA galaxies. II. The case of weakly barred galaxies
Context. About 35% of the nearby disc galaxies host a weak bar for which different formation scenarios, including the weakening of a strong bar and tidal...
Bar pattern speeds in CALIFA galaxies. III. Solving the puzzle of ultrafast bars
Context. More than 10% of barred galaxies with a direct measurement of the bar pattern speed host an ultrafast bar. These bars extend well beyond the corotation...
Bar properties as a function of wavelength: a local baseline with S<SUP>4</SUP>G for high-redshift studies
The redshift evolution of bars is an important signpost of the dynamic maturity of disc galaxies. To characterize the intrinsic evolution safe from band...
Bar properties as a function of wavelength: a local baseline with S<SUP>4</SUP>G for high-redshift studies
The redshift evolution of bars is an important signpost of the dynamic maturity of disc galaxies. To characterize the intrinsic evolution safe from band...
Using the gravitational torque indicator Qb, we derive the distribution of bar strengths for a sample of early-type disk galaxies. The sample is part of the...
Bar Strengths in Galaxies as Measured from INGRID Images
We describe results from our study of a sample of spiral galaxies of a wide range of Hubble types on the basis of near-IR imaging obtained with INGRID on the...
Bar Strengths, Bar Lengths, and Corotation Radii, Derived Photometrically for 10 Barred Galaxies
We have used photometric images of 10 barred galaxies in the B and I bands to infer geometric and dynamical parameters of their bars: their lengths, their...
