Journal ArticleDOI
Dissipation in barred galaxies - The growth of bulges and central mass concentrations
Daniel Pfenniger,Colin Norman +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, basic dynamical mechanisms that produce an amplification of the accretion rate of gas clouds into the central regions of barred galaxies, and their subsequent effects on the evolution of the galaxy are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Galactic bars with central mass concentrations : three-dimensional dynamics
TL;DR: In this paper, the stellar dynamics at the transitions between a strongly barred and rotating potential and a spherical and dense central mass concentration are investigated in a model potential, and three different degrees of concentration of the central mass are studied.
BookDOI
Galaxies: Interactions and Induced Star Formation
TL;DR: Induced Star Formation and Galaxy Interaction: Observational evidence for Interactions and Mergers as mentioned in this paper. And Dynamics of Galaxy Interactions, including the relationship between star formation and galaxy mergers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stellar diffusion in barred spiral galaxies
TL;DR: In this article, the radial diffusion of stars in the plane of a typical barred disk galaxy was characterized empirically by calculating the local spatial diffusion coefficient and diffusion time-scale for bulge-disk-halo N-body self-consistent systems which initially differ in the SafronovToomre-QT parameter.
