Detection of a stellar bar in the extreme gas-rich galaxy GN20 at z=4.055 shows that gas-rich disks support rapid bar formation in the early universe.
Bar pattern speeds anti-correlate with stellar and total dynamical mass in 30 galaxies, placing the slowest bars in the most massive systems and supporting angular momentum transfer to dark matter.
A local Tremaine-Weinberg framework integrates the continuity equation over flexible loops to measure galactic pattern speeds, recovering standard methods as special cases and validated on IllustrisTNG simulations.
DESI DR2 identifies 50,088 galaxies with moderate and 27,420 with strong evidence for down-the-barrel NaI D absorption revealing inflows at ~20 km/s and multiple accretion pathways at z < 0.6.
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.
Barred galaxies transition from actively star-forming at z~1-2 to quiescent at z~0, with the fraction of quiescent galaxies hosting bars increasing steeply over cosmic time.
Strong bars correlate with massive red galaxies, boost central star formation in low-mass systems while quenching it in high-mass ones, and increase AGN incidence, supporting bar-driven gas inflow.
