Nuclear velocity drops in barred galaxies (σ-drops) Hervé Wozniak & Nicolas Champavert Centre de Recherche Astronomique de Lyon, France 2005 march 10th
Why studying the stellar kinematics of sub-kpc regions in barred galaxies?
Region well inside the bar but outside immediate vicinity of any AGN More or less the region where secondary/nuclear bars are expected to develop Should shed some light on nuclear fuelling mechanisms

Tentative dynamical models…
Bottema & Gerritsen (1997):
N-body simulations (only collisionless particles) Analytical models with/without halo Ad hoc additional ‘cold’ nuclear sphere
Emsellem et al. (2001):
Damped orbits around resonances (Lindblad & Lindblad 1994 formalism) Bulge (Plummer) + Disk (KuzminToomre) + nuclear disk Parameters fitted on V and σ curves

… and successful simulations Wozniak et al. (2003 A&A 409, 469)
Cartesian PM + sticky particles + SF Schmidt law
T= 0: 305 000 *, 76 000 gas
Two stellar populations:
T= 0: 500 000 *, 50 000 gas
‘initial’ population ‘new’ population born during the run
Many runs:
isothermal gas (various initial temperatures and σ) or cooling With/without rigid halo Various resolution and smoothing lengths

Mechanisms of drop formation
Reservoir of gas in the sub-kpc region
By accretion
Active star formation
need a bar (not necessarily a nuclear/secondary bar) or any other non-axisymmetric feature (e.g. nuclear spirals?) From satellites ? Possible but not tested
New stars inherit the gas velocity dispersion at birth Since gas has a lower σ than stars ⇒ σ-drop
Issue: lifetime of a σ-drop
No more gas Stopped or low-rate star formation

σ-drop lifetime ? Wozniak & Champavert 2005
Improved Polar PM + SPH + SF code
More accurate self-forces (sub-gridding) Spatial resolution increased (15 pc in the central region) CFL condition ⇒ very small time steps ⇒ CPU consuming T= 0: 2 500 000 *, 50 000 gas SF switched off at various time
Depth of a σ–drop: 〈σR〉 (r < 100 pc) = σmin 〈σR〉 (r = 500 ± 50 pc) = σ’max’ Δ σ = σ’max’ - σ min 2005/03/10

σ-drop evolution
• 0 < T < 475 Myr: bar formation phase, gas accretion, growing local SFR •475 < T < 800: growing phase; new population more massive than initial one in central region
•T > 800: nearly stable phase but slow heating at the same rate in both regions σ reaches a plateau (→ 2.1 Gyr!)

Conclusions Nuclear drops in stellar velocity dispersion are likely to be due to a new population which is born in low-σ gas accreted in the central region
1.
σ-drops could be long-lived, despite secular heating, provided:
