Description
We studied the SB0 galaxy NGC 2950, which hosts two nested stellar bars. We used the Tremaine-Weinberg method to measure the pattern speed of the primary bar. We established directly and for the first time in a double-barred galaxy that the two nested bars are rotating with different pattern speeds.

    The role of AGN feedback on the evolution of dwarf galaxies from cosmological simulations: SMBHs suppress star formation in low-mass galaxies
    Recent observational studies suggest that feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGNs) may play an important role in the formation and evolution of low-mass dwarf galaxies, an issue that has received little attention from a theoretical perspective. We investigate this using two sets of 12 cosmological magneto-hydrodynamical simulations of the

    Using gas kinematics to measure resonant structures in disc galaxies: the interaction of M51 with NGC 5195
    Interstellar gas offers advantages when quantifying the structure of the resonances in disc galaxies. The gas is concentrated close to the disc mid-plane, making it easier to determine its in-plane velocity components, and it offers sharp emission lines for good velocity resolution. These properties are shared by atomic, molecular, and ionized gas

    Ultra-deep imaging of NGC1052-DF2 and NGC1052-DF4 to unravel their origins
    A number of scenarios have been proposed to explain the low velocity dispersion (and hence possible absence of dark matter) of the low surface brightness galaxies NGC1052-DF2 and NGC1052-DF4. Most of the proposed mechanisms are based on the removal of dark matter via the interaction of these galaxies with other objects. A common feature of these
