We apply the Tremaine-Weinberg method to 19 nearby galaxies using stellar mass surface densities and velocities derived from the PHANGS-MUSE survey, to calculate (primarily bar) pattern speeds ($Ω_{\rm P}$). After quality checks, we find that around half (10) of these stellar mass-based measurements are reliable. For those galaxies, we find good agreement between our results and previously published pattern speeds, and use rotation curves to calculate major resonance locations (co-rotation radii and Lindblad resonances). We also compare these stellar-mass derived pattern speeds with H$α$ (from MUSE) and CO($J=2{-}1$) emission from the PHANGS-ALMA survey. We find that in the case of these clumpy ISM tracers, this method erroneously gives a signal that is simply the angular frequency at a representative radius set by the distribution of these clumps ($Ω_{\rm clump}$), and that this $Ω_{\rm clump}$ is significantly different to $Ω_{\rm P}$ ($\sim$20% in the case of H$α$, and $\sim$50% in the case of CO). Thus, we conclude that it is inadvisable to use "pattern speeds" derived from ISM kinematics. Finally, we compare our derived pattern speeds and co-rotation radii, along with bar properties, to the global parameters of these galaxies. Consistent with previous studies, we find that galaxies with a later Hubble type have a larger ratio of co-rotation radius to bar length, more molecular-gas rich galaxies have higher $Ω_{\rm P}$, and more bulge-dominated galaxies have lower $Ω_{\rm P}$. Unlike earlier works, however, there are no clear trends between the bar strength and $Ω_{\rm P}$, nor between the total stellar mass surface density and the pattern speed.

MaNGA项目已经获得了数千个邻近星系的IFU数据,包括棒星系。利用IFU提供的二维光谱和运动学信息,我们可以测量棒星系的斑图速度,它决定了棒星系的动力学。我们应用Tremaine \& Weinberg提出的非参数方法估计了53个棒星系的条形图速度,这是迄今为止以这种方式研究的最大样本。我们的样本来自MaNGA第一次公开数据发布,作为SDSS Data Release 13的一部分,主要根据杆和盘之间的轴比和位置角差,而运动学数据来自后来的SDSS Data Release 14。我们已经使用了光度图像的光度位置角和恒星速度图的运动位置角来推导图案速度。结合三个独立的酒吧长度测量和圆速度从牛仔裤各向异性建模(JAM),我们还确定了无量纲比$\cal{R}$的共转半径的酒吧长度。我们发现,星系的位置角是主要的不确定性,在确定的酒吧模式的速度。运动学位置角比光度学位置角导致更少的超快棒,这可能是由于测量运动学位置角的方法。我们研究了$\cal{R}$值对星系性质的依赖性,例如JAM模型中的暗物质分数和恒星星族合成(SPS)中的恒星年龄和金属丰度。钢筋长度与钢筋强度之间存在正相关关系:钢筋越长,钢筋强度越高。然而,没有发现其他显著的相关性,这可能是由于推导$\cal{R}$值时的误差,或者是由于星系棒复杂的形成和减速过程。
