We extract the resonant orbits from an N-body bar that is a good representation of the Milky Way, using the method recently introduced by Molloy et al. (2015). By decomposing the bar into its constituent orbit families, we show that they…
Understanding radial migration is a crucial point to build relevant chemical and dynamical evolution models of the Milky Way disk. In this paper, we analyze a high-resolution N-body simulation of a Milky Way-type galaxy to study the role…
We have recently identified a new radial migration mechanism resulting from the overlap of spiral and bar resonances in galactic disks. Here we confirm the efficiency of this mechanism in fully self-consistent, Tree-SPH simulations, as well…
With the use of a detailed Milky Way nonaxisymmetric potential, observationally and dynamically constrained, the effects of the bar and the spiral arms in the Galaxy are studied in the disc and in the stellar halo. Especially the trapping…
Context: In the early evolution of a planetary system, a pair of planets may be captured in a mean motion resonance while still embedded in their nesting circumstellar disk. Aims: The goal is to estimate the direction and amount of shift in…
An N-body hybrid simulation, integrating both massive and tracer particles, of a Galactic disk is used to study the stellar phase space distribution or velocity distributions in different local neighborhoods. Pattern speeds identified in…
For mature spiral galaxies, the rotation velocities quickly increase from the galactic center and achieve a constant velocity from the core to the periphery. This dynamic behavior is described by models balancing Newtonian gravitational and…
The secular evolution of disk galaxies is largely driven by resonances between the orbits of 'particles' (stars or dark matter) and the rotation of non-axisymmetric features (spiral arms or a bar). Such resonances may also explain kinematic…
It is widely believed that resonant orbits play an important role in formation and evolution of bars and large-scale spirals in galaxy discs. These resonant orbits have been studied in a number of specific potentials, often with an imposed…
We use $N$-body simulations to investigate the excitation of bending waves in a Milky Way-like disc-bulge-halo system. The dark matter halo consists of a smooth component and a population of subhaloes while the disc is composed of thin and…
The continuation of resonant periodic orbits from the restricted to the general three body problem is studied in a systematic way. Starting from the Keplerian unperturbed system we obtain the resonant families of the circular restricted…
In this work, two new axisymmetric models for the Galactic mass distribution are presented. Motivated by recent results, these two models include the contribution of a stellar thin disc and of a thick disc, as massive as the thin…
Most of the planetary systems discovered around binary stars are located at approximately three semi-major axes from the barycentre of their system, curiously close to low-order mean-motion resonances (MMRs). The formation mechanism of…
This paper describes test particle simulations of the response of the outer parts of Galactic disks to barring and spiral structure. Simulations are conducted for cold Mestel disks and warm quasi-exponential disks with completely flat…
Resonant planetary migration in protoplanetary discs can lead to an interplay between the resonant interaction of planets and their disc torques called overstability. While theoretical predictions and N-body simulations hinted at its…
Detailed analysis of kinematics of the Milky Way disk in the solar neighborhood based on the GAIA DR3 catalog reveals the existence of peculiarities in the stellar velocity distribution perpendicular to the galactic plane. We study the…
Resonant locking of two planets is an expected outcome of convergent disc migration. The planets subsequently migrate together as a resonant pair. In the context of circumbinary planets, the disc is truncated internally by the binary. If…
Mean-motion resonances are expected to frequently arise at the inner edges of protoplanetary disks, where planet-disk interactions facilitate large-scale orbital convergence. Under certain conditions, however, the same dissipative forces…
Context: Resonances in the stellar orbital motion under perturbations from spiral arms structure play an important role in the evolution of the disks of spiral galaxies. The epicyclic approximation allows the determination of the…
The inner parts of many spiral galaxies are dominated by bars. These are strong non-axisymmetric features which significantly affect orbits of stars and dark matter particles. One of the main effects is the dynamical resonances between…
