A Near-Infrared Study of 2MASS Bars in Local Galaxies: An Anchor for High-Redshift Studies

TL;DR: In this paper, the fraction of bars in nearby spiral galaxies using near-infrared J, H, and Ks images of 151 spiral galaxies from 2MASS was measured by analyzing the full two-dimensional light distribution and requiring a combined ellipticity and position angle signature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reconstructing the stellar mass distributions of galaxies using S4G IRAC 3.6 and 4.5 μm images. II. The conversion from light to mass.

TL;DR: In this article, a new approach for estimating the 3.6 μm stellar mass-to-light (M/L) ratio Υ_3.6 was presented, which avoids several of the largest sources of uncertainty in existing techniques using population synthesis models.
