Galaxy Zoo: secular evolution of barred galaxies from structural decomposition of multiband images
Galaxy Zoo: secular evolution of barred galaxies from structural decomposition of multiband images
We present the results of two-component (disc+bar) and three-component (disc+bar+bulge) multiwavelength 2D photometric decompositions of barred galaxies in five SDSS bands ($ugriz$). This sample of $\sim$3,500 nearby ($z<0.06$) galaxies with strong bars selected from the Galaxy Zoo citizen science project is the largest sample of barred galaxies to be studied …
