dc.descriptionWe propose a new dynamical mechanism to account for the bar off-centering observed in many barred galaxies. It is based on the presence of a m=1 density wave, non-linearly excited by the strong m=2 component due to the linearly unstable bar and by a m=3 mode. N-body simulations suggest that this mechanism is at work in the centers of galaxies, and provide a natural explanation by spontaneously producing bar off-centering which amounts to several tens of parsecs.
