The Impacts of Bars, Spirals, and Bulge Size on Gas-phase Metallicity Gradients in MaNGA Galaxies
As galaxies evolve over time, the orbits of their constituent stars are expected to change in size and Wart Treatment shape, moving stars away from their birth radius.Radial gas flows are also expected.Spiral arms and bars in galaxies are predicted to help drive this radial relocation, and it may be possible to trace this observationally, via a fla
