Fig: Galaxies consists of Dark Matter halos, baryonic disks and stellar bulge and/or stellar bars.
Fig: Stars in the central region of galaxies from triaxial structures that look like a bar.

I have worked with FIRE-2 simulations and the TNG50 simulations. I will be working with the Romulus25 simulations soon.
