A strong correlation between bar strength and global star forming activity in isolated barred galaxies
I have studied the relation between the global star formation activity and the bar structure in a sample of isolated barred galaxies. The star formation activity was quantified via the ratio between the IRAS fluxes at 25 mu m and 100 mu m. Two parameters were chosen to define the bar structure: the strength of the bar and the relative projected bar
