Galaxy Zoo: CANDELS barred discs and bar fractions★

The formation of bars in disc galaxies is a tracer of the dynamical maturity of the population. Previous studies have found that the incidence of bars in discs decreases from the local Universe to z ∼ 1, and by z > 1 simulations predict that bar features in dynamically mature …
