麦哲伦桥的Ha辐射

Ha Emission from the Magellanic Bridge

E. Muller, Q. Parker

摘要:

我们在这里提出了一个初步的报告和评论最近处理的观测哈排放朝向麦哲伦桥。这些数据已被分析,试图量化的程度,恒星星族是能够重塑本地ISM。我们发现,哈发射区域小,弱,分布稀疏,符合一个相对静止和不活跃的ISM辐射和碰撞电离是低效和零星的。这表明,小尺度(即~几十pc)的能量过程并不主导桥的ISM内的能量平衡,因此它拥有一个原始的湍流结构,否则在我们自己的银河系中无法进入。我们发现Ha发射与检测到的12 CO(1-0)线发射(分子氢的代表)以及其他容易识别的环状HI特征密切相关。

英文摘要:

We present here a preliminary report and commentary of recently processed observations of Ha emission towards the Magellanic Bridge. These data have been analysed in an attempt to quantify the extent to which the stellar population is capable of reshaping the local ISM. We find that the Ha emission regions are small, weak and sparsely distributed, consistent with a relatively quiescent and inactive ISM where radiative and collisional ionisation is inefficient and sporadic. This suggests that energetic processes at the small scale (i.e. ~tens of pc) do not dominate the energy balance within the ISM of the Bridge, which therefore hosts a pristine turbulent structure, otherwise inaccessible within our own Galaxy. We find Ha emission that is well correlated with detected 12CO(1-0) line emission (a proxy for molecular hydrogen), as well as other easily identified ring-like HI features.
