JWST imaging reveals a z=0.92 disk galaxy with an X-shaped bulge, nuclear stellar disk, and extended disk whose bar geometry matches present-day systems, showing bar-driven secular evolution largely complete 7.6 Gyr ago.
Bar-induced migration can move ω Cen from the GSE phase-space region, but requires Ω_b ≲ 26 km s^{-1} kpc^{-1}, challenging consensus on the bar speed.
In a barred Milky Way-mass simulation, the nuclear star cluster and nuclear disk co-evolve and share a star-formation history, except for a single massive cluster merger.
Stellar feedback regulates radial gas inflow in the Milky Way center, yielding time-averaged rates that fall from 5e-3 to 1e-6 solar masses per year with both smooth secular and episodic components.
The Gaia-Sausage-Enceladus merger occurred 11.2 ± 0.1 Gyr ago, coinciding with the formation of a group of globular clusters and potentially leaving ω Centauri as its remnant, while placing disk formation at z ≳ 4.
N-body+hydro simulation of an isolated Milky Way-like galaxy shows bar-spiral reconnections produce episodic star formation bursts in nuclear stellar discs and clusters after the initial bar-driven burst.
C-rich AGB stars trace the Galactic warp with larger amplitudes than Cepheids at intermediate ages of about 1 Gyr.

Bar-induced migration of $\omega$ Centauri away from Gaia Sausage-Enceladus
