Radial profile of the relative amplitude of the m  = 2 Fourier component at z = 0 (top row) along with the evolution of the bar strength (bottom row). In each row the left-hand, middle, and right-hand panels contain results for Au-06, Au-17, and Au-18, respectively. The black, orange, and purple curves show the fiducial halo, the NoR, and the NoRNoQ variant, respectively. In the top row, the vertical dashed black, orange, and purple lines show the radius of the maximum of the A₂ profile for the fiducial halo, the NoR, and the NoRNoQ variant, respectively. In the bottom row, the black, orange, and purple arrows point at the bar formation time (see the text for more information) of the fiducial halo, the NoR, and the NoRNoQ variant, respectively. All NoRNoQ variants have stronger (i.e. higher A₂ values) and shorter bars than the fiducial and NoR variants and they develop them earlier.
