Óscar Jiménez-Arranz - Tidal interaction can stop galactic bars

Tidal interaction can stop galactic bars: on the LMC non-rotating bar

This collection shows different videos of the K9 and K21 KRATOS simulations that highlight that tidal interaction can stop galactic bars. For more information about the simulations, we recommend reading the main reference (Jiménez-Arranz+25b).

Figure 1. Time evolution of the stellar density map of K9's GLMC disc as seen face-on. The reference system is centred in the galactic bar.

Figure 2. Same as Fig. 1, but the reference system if centred in the center of mass.

K21_stop_bar_bar.mp4

Figure 3: Same as Fig. 1, but for K21.

Figure 4: Same as Fig. 2, but for K21.
