Ring and Lens Formation
1996
International Astronomical Union Colloquium
AbstractThe dynamical mechanism to form rings at Lindblad resonances in a barred galaxy is now well-known: due to its dissipative character, the gas is forced in a spiral structure, and experiences torques ...
We propose here that lenses are the result of partial bar destruction, a necessary step in a feedback cycle of bar formation-destruction, a cycle driven by gas accretion. ...
Current views of the ISM are therefore based on self-similar structures, a hierarchy of clouds over several orders of magnitude in scale (Falgarone et Combes al. 1992; Pfenniger k Combes 1994) . ...

Gaseous flows in galaxies
2007
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union
The gas component plays a major role in the dynamics of spiral galaxies, because of its dissipative character, and its ability to exchange angular momentum with stars in the disk. ...
The various time-scales of these gaseous flows are described. ...

A dynamo model for the magnetic field of the weakly barred galaxy IC 4214
1999
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
A B S T R A C T IC 4214 is a weakly barred galaxy, the observed velocity field of which has been well modelled by a dynamical simulation. ...
We take the velocity field from this simulation as being representative of that to be found in a class of barred spiral galaxies, and use it as input into a galactic dynamo model. ...
Their general properties have been modelled by various gas dynamical simulations using analytical or numerical potentials (Schwarz 1981; Combes & Gerin 1985; Byrd et al. 1994) . ...

Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
The two-dimensional structure of the time-averaged flow is significantly different compared to the hydrodynamical case. ...

AGN activity and nuclear starbursts: Sgr A* activity shapes the Central Molecular Zone
[article]
2015
arXiv
pre-print
In this paper, I use SPH simulations to show that most of these properties can be explained as due to a recent outburst of AGN activity in Sgr A*, the central supermassive black hole of the Milky Way. ...
The Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) of the Milky Way shows several peculiar properties: a large star formation rate, some of the most massive young star clusters and molecular clouds in the Galaxy, and a ...
This is a stochastic process, so I turn to numerical simulations to investigate the properties of the structures forming in a perturbed CMZ. ...

Hydrodynamical simulations of Galactic fountains – I. Evolution of single fountains

Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
This localized circulation of disk gas does not influence the radial chemical gradients on large scale, as required by the chemical models of the Milky Way which reproduce the metallicity distribution ...
To this aim, we performed a number of 3D hydrodynamical radiative cooling simulations of the gas in the Milky Way where the whole Galaxy structure, the Galactic differential rotation and the supernovae ...

These are the beginning of two straight dust lanes, which are aligned parallel to an oval distortion, reminiscent of a primary bar, almost perpendicular to the nuclear one. ...

Escapees from the bar resonances. Presence of low-eccentricity metal-rich stars at the solar vicinity
2020
Astronomy and Astrophysics
Understanding radial migration is a crucial point for building relevant chemical and dynamical evolution models of the Milky Way disk. ...
Once the bar strength reaches its maximum amplitude, some of the stars delivered to the outer disk escape the resonances and some of them settle on nearly circular orbits. ...
Numerical simulations were carried by using the equipment of the shared research facilities of HPC computing resources at Lomonosov Moscow State University supported by the project RFMEFI62117X0011. ...

CHEMODYNAMIC EVOLUTION OF DWARF GALAXIES IN TIDAL FIELDS
2016
Astrophysical Journal
We perform a series of smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations of dwarf galaxies in external tidal fields to examine the effects of tides on their metallicities and metallicity gradients. ...
In our simulated galaxies, gravitational instabilities drive gas inwards and produce centralized star formation and a significant metallicity gradient. ...

A dynamical mechanism for the origin of nuclear rings
2018
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
However, the fact that gas follows non circular orbits in an external barred potential has profound consequences: it creates a region of reverse shear in which it is energetically favourable to form a ...
In analogy with the standard theory of accretion discs, our theory is based on shear viscous forces among nested annuli of gas. ...
So, if everything is forced to remain on a circular orbit, the inner ring must move outwards, and the outer ring moves inwards. ...

Exploring spiral galaxy potentials with hydrodynamical simulations
2003
Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
where effects like inflows due to numerical viscosity and morphological dependence on gas sound speed are less of a concern than they are in the centers of disks. ...
In particular, we show that a global least squares analysis is not the optimal method for distinguishing different models as it tends to slightly favor low disk fraction models. ...

We study the stability of trajectories near the disk plane of galaxy models with a triaxial dark matter halo component. ...
It was found that weak discreteness noise can change the fraction of such trajectories significantly and can therefore have important consequences for the modelling of galaxies. ...
Numerical simulations based on CDM models on the other hand predict
no core radius at all, but a density increasing as 1/r in the central areas. ...
