Observations and numerical simulations

Extract
We discuss the major results from a study of the molecular gas distribution and dynamics in the nuclear disks (ND) of a limited sample of nearby spirals: NGC891, NGC5907, NGC4565, NGC4013, NGC4321, M82, NGC3626 and NGC3593. The main objective is to search for observational evidences of secular evolution along the Hubble sequence in spirals and to study the specific role of bars in the process.
