Relating bars with the environment in the nearby Universe
  We study the correlation between the fraction of barred spiral galaxies and
environmental parameters of galaxies to understand in which environments the
bars are more commonly found. For this purpose we apply the Blanton et al.
technique to a sample of spiral galaxies drawn from the Nair & Abraham
catalogue. Our results agree with previous findings in which the fraction of
barred galaxies is almost insensitive to environment.
