Scientific paper

The interstellar gas flow in the inner disk of M31 is modelled using a two dimensional, grid based, hydrodynamics code. The underlying stellar potential is assumed to be triaxial and rotating in the same plane as the disk in order to explain the twisted nature of the central isophotes in the galaxy and the non circular velocities of gas in the inner disk. Results are compared with HI and CO observations in order to constrain the parameters of the model and determine the nature of M31's bar-like bulge.
