Angular momentum redistribution within barred galaxies drives their dynamical evolution. Angular momentum is emitted mainly by near-resonant material in the bar region and absorbed by resonant material mainly in the outer disc and in the…

We review current progress in the study of the stellar populations of early-type galaxies, both locally and at intermediate redshifts. In particular, we focus on the ages of these galaxies and their evolution in hopes of determining the…

The galaxy NGC1313 has attracted the attention of various studies due to the peculiar morphology observed in optical bands, although it is classified as a barred, late-type galaxy with no apparent close-by companions. However, the velocity…

We investigate the stellar population properties of pseudo-bulges in barred galaxies drawn from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS DR7) to assess how bars regulate central star formation and secular evolution. Our sample comprises barred…

Almost two-thirds of disk galaxies in the local universe host bars, which serve as important drivers of secular evolutionary processes. While cosmological simulations are powerful tools to study the formation and evolution of galaxies, they…

We present the first estimate of the observed fraction and properties of bars out to $ z\sim4$ using $\textit{JWST}$ CEERS NIRCam images. We analyze 1770 galaxies with $M_\star > 10^{10} M_\odot$ at $0.5 \leq z \leq 4$ and identify barred…

The cosmic evolution of the barred galaxy population provides key information about the secular evolution of galaxies and the settling of rotationally dominated discs. We study the bar fraction in the SMACSJ0723.37323 (SMACS0723) cluster of…

Around the turn of the last century, star clusters of all kinds were considered "simple" stellar populations. Over the past decade, this situation has changed dramatically. At the same time, star clusters are among the brightest stellar…

We carry out a comparison study on the bar structure in the Illustris-1 and TNG100 simulations. At $z=0$, 8.9\% of 1232 disc galaxies with stellar mass $>10^{10.5}M_{\odot}$ in Illustris-1 are barred, while the numbers are 55\% of 1269 in…

Past studies have long emphasised the key role played by galactic stellar bars in the context of disc secular evolution, via the redistribution of gas and stars, the triggering of star formation, and the formation of prominent structures…

We investigate the stellar masses of strongly barred spiral galaxies. Our analysis is based on a sample of ~14000 visually-classified nearby galaxies given in Nair & Abraham 2010(a). The fraction of barred spiral galaxies is found to be a…

Numerical simulations predict that bars represent a very important agent for triggering gas inflows, which in turn could lead to central star formation. Bars thus are thought to contribute to the formation of the bulge.This changes both,…

In the absence of an interaction, central bars might be the most effective mechanism for radial motions of gas in barred spiral galaxies, which represent two-thirds of disc galaxies. The dynamical effects induced by bars in the first few…
