The impact of strong and weak bars on galaxy evolution
- Abstract:
-
Bars are common structures in disc galaxies that are thought to be long-lived and to have the ability to redistribute matter and angular momentum in their hosts. This implies that bars are important in the evolution of galaxies. Previous studies have traditionally been focussed on strong bars, as they are easier to identify and observe, while the role of weak bars remains relatively unclear. In this thesis, I study the impact that both strong and weak bars have on their hosts, especially i...
