摘要
We have obtained solutions from an N-body simulation and a collisionless Boltzmann simulation which predict the evolution of the same model galaxy. Our principal interest was to compare the non-linear development of a bar instability. We find excellent agreement; in particular, the limiting amplitude of the bar differs by merely 2 per cent between the two calculations. © 1984 Royal Astronomical Society.
