A fast bar in the post-interaction galaxy NGC 1023.

Abstract (from CDS):

We measured the bar pattern speed, Ωp, of the SB0 galaxy NGC 1023 using the Tremaine-Weinberg method with stellar-absorption slit spectroscopy. The morphology and kinematics of the Hi gas outside NGC 1023 suggest it suffered a tidal interaction, sometime in the past, with one of its dwarf companions. At present, however, the optical disc is relaxed. If the disc had been stabilized by a massive dark matter halo and formed its bar in the interaction, then the bar would have to be slow. We found Ωp =5.0±1.8km.s–1.arcsec–1, so that the bar ends near its corotation radius. It is therefore rotating rapidly and must have a maximum disc.
