This research project aims to study the bars of spiral galaxies, in the context of triaxial dark matter halos. We intend to analyse the origin and evolution of bars as related to its interactions with the halo, which, not being spherical, should significantly influence the dynamics of the stellar disk. The effects of the halo on the bar will be approached with numerical N-body simulations…
