揭开透镜星系中的暗晕

Unveiling dark halos in lensing galaxies

Ignacio Ferreras, Prasenjit Saha, Scott Burles

摘要:

我们提出了一个空间分辨比较的恒星质量和总质量的表面分布的9个早期类型的星系。这些星系是斯隆透镜ACS巡天(或SLACS; Bolton et al. 2006)的一个子集。通过探索再现透镜图像的像素化质量模型来获得总质量分布。恒星质量分布是由适合透镜星系光度学的星族综合模型导出的。还计算了非线性-主要是模型退化。恒星可以解释内部区域的所有质量。事实上,萨尔彼得IMF在内部区域提供了太多的恒星质量,因此似乎被排除在外。暗物质在半光半径处变得重要,并在更大的半径处变得越来越占主导地位。恒星和黑暗的成分是紧密对齐的,但实际的椭圆度是不相关的。最后,我们试图直观地总结的结果,渲染的密度,恒星与黑暗的比例,和不确定性作为假彩色地图。

英文摘要:

We present a spatially resolved comparison of the stellar-mass and total-mass surface distributions of nine early-type galaxies. The galaxies are a subset of the Sloan Lens ACS survey (or SLACS; Bolton et al. 2006). The total-mass distributions are obtained by exploring pixelated mass models that reproduce the lensed images. The stellar-mass distributions are derived from population synthesis models fit to the photometry of the lensing galaxies. Uncertainties - mainly model degeneracies - are also computed. Stars can account for all the mass in the inner regions. A Salpeter IMF actually gives too much stellar mass in the inner regions and hence appears ruled out. Dark matter becomes significant by the half-light radius and becomes increasingly dominant at larger radii. The stellar and dark components are closely aligned, but the actual ellipticities are not correlated. Finally, we attempt to intuitively summarize the results by rendering the density, stellar-vs-dark ratio, and uncertainties as false-colour maps.
