The influence of a galaxy's environment on its evolution has been studied and compared extensively in the literature, although differing techniques are often used to define environment. Most methods fall into two broad groups: those that use nearest neighbours probe underlying density field fixed apertures. differences between inhibit clean comparison analyses leave open possibility that, even with same data, different properties actually being measured. In this work we apply twenty...

Warped disks are almost ubiquitous among spiral galaxies. Here we revisit and test the "flyby scenario" of warp formation, in which impulsive encounters between galaxies responsible for warped disks. Based on N-body simulations, investigate morphological kinematical evolution stellar component when undergo flyby interactions with adjacent dark matter halos. We find that so-called "S"-shaped warps can be excited by flybys sustained even up to a few billion years, this scenario provides...
Bar fractions depend on the properties of host galaxies, which are closely related to formation and evolution bars. However, observational studies do not provide consistent results. We investigate bar fraction its dependence galaxies by using three classification methods: visual inspection, ellipse fitting method, Fourier analysis.

We test the idea that bar pattern speeds decrease with time owing to angular momentum exchange a dark matter halo. If this process actually occurs, then locations of corotation resonance and other resonances should generally increase time. therefore derive velocity $\Omega$ epicyclic frequency $\kappa$ as functions galactocentric radius for 85 barred galaxies using photometric data. Mass maps are constructed by assuming dynamical mass-to-light ratio solving Poisson equation gravitatonal...
ABSTRACT Star formation histories (SFHs) are essential for understanding galaxy and evolution. We present the mean SFHs of 148 dwarf lenticular galaxies (dS0s) derived from Sloan Digital Sky Survey spectra. These reveal two distinct periods active star formation. The first period, concluding approximately 6 Gyr ago, witnessed predominantly old, metal-poor (Z = 0.0004) stars, accounting 60 per cent stellar mass 30 luminosity. scarcity extremely 0.0001) stars suggests pre-enrichment during...
We introduce a new approach to classify barred galaxies that utilizes the transverse-to-radial force ratio map (ratio map, hereafter) in different manner from previous studies. When we display polar coordinates, appear as four aligned, horizontal thick slabs. This characteristic feature enables us successfully and nonbarred with an accuracy of 87%. It yields bar fraction 53%, including both SBs SABs, when applied 884 nearby (z < 0.01) spiral Sloan Digital Sky Survey/DR7. also provides...
We have performed smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations for the response of gaseous disk to imposed moderately strong non-axisymmetric potentials. The model galaxies are composed three stellar components (disk, bulge and bar) two dark ones (supermassive black hole halo) whose gravitational potentials assumed be invariant in time frame corotating with bar. found that torques alone generated by bar gives maximum tangential-to-radial force ratio as $(F_{Tan}/F_{Rad})_{max}= 0.3$ not...

We study the behavior of galactic disks in triaxial halos both numerically and analytically to see if warps can be excited sustained potentials. consider following two scenarios: (1) that are initially tilted relative equatorial plane halo (for a pedagogical purpose), (2) infall dark matter disk halo. With numerical simulations 100,000 particles fixed potential, we find halos, just as spherical or axisymmetric but they show some oscillatory even transformed polar-ring system has prolate-like...
