M33中离散源的Spitzer测光

Spitzer photometry of discrete sources in M33

S. Verley, L. K. Hunt, E. Corbelli, C. Giovanardi

摘要:

结合本星系群旋涡星系M33与斯皮策图像的相对邻近性,我们研究了红外(IR)发射点的性质,并评估了IR发射作为恒星形成示踪剂的可靠性。我们比较了三种已知类型的离散源(HII区域,超新星遗迹和行星状星云)的几个样本的光度测量结果与理论诊断图,并推导出光谱能量分布(从3.6到24微米)的每种类型的对象。此外,我们生成了一个24微米源的目录,并从已知类型源的观测和理论颜色推断出它们的性质。我们估计恒星形成率在M33的全球和本地,从红外线发射和从Halpha发射线。

英文摘要:

Combining the relative vicinity of the Local Group spiral galaxy M33 with the Spitzer images, we investigate the properties of infrared (IR) emission sites and assess the reliability of the IR emission as a star formation tracer. We compared the photometric results for several samples of three known types of discrete sources (HII regions, supernovae remnants and planetary nebulae) with theoretical diagnostic diagrams, and derived the spectral energy distribution (from 3.6 to 24 microns) of each type of object. Moreover, we generated a catalogue of 24 microns sources and inferred their nature from the observed and theoretical colours of the known type sources. We estimated the star formation rate in M33 both globally and locally, from the IR emission and from the Halpha emission line.
