The Impact of Bar-induced Noncircular Motions on the Measurement of Galactic Rotation Curves by Jie Liu, Zhi Li, Juntai Shen

“…For $\left|{\rm{\Delta }}\phi \right|\lesssim 40^\circ $ , noncircular motions produce a bar-induced “dip” feature (rise–drop–rise pattern) in the derived RC, which shows higher velocities near the nuclear ring and lower velocities in the bar region compared to the true RC (RC _true ). We demonstrate convincingly that such dip features are very common in the PHANGS-ALMA sample of barred galaxies. …”
