摘要:

最近,在一个由100 μ m通量密度> 50 Jy和角速度>-30 °的北半球星系组成的样品中进行的22 GHz脉泽巡天,发现了水脉泽探测率与远红外(FIR)通量密度之间的关系。该调查已扩展到较低的FIR流量密度的星系,以确认这种相关性,并发现更多的微波激射源相关的后续干涉研究。为了< 50 Jy and Dec. >寻找22千兆赫的水汽谱线,在Effelsberg用100米望远镜观测了41个30 Jy &lt; S(100微米)-30度的星系样本。调查的平均3-西格玛噪声水平为40毫焦耳为1公里/秒的通道,对应于各向同性脉泽光度约0.5太阳光度在25百万秒差距的距离的检测阈值。报告了两个检测结果:在Seyfert/HII星系NGC 613中有一个各向同性光度约为35个太阳光度的超脉泽,在合并系统NGC 520中有一个约为1个太阳光度的千脉泽。[删节]

英文摘要:

Recently, a relationship between the water maser detection rate and far infrared (FIR) flux density has been found as a result of a 22 GHz maser survey in a sample comprised of northern galaxies with 100 micron flux density > 50 Jy and a declination >-30 degrees. The survey has been extended toward galaxies with lower FIR flux densities in order to confirm this correlation and to discover additional maser sources for relevant follow-up interferometric studies. A sample of 41 galaxies with 30 Jy < S(100 micron) < 50 Jy and Dec. > -30 degrees was observed with the 100-m telescope at Effelsberg in a search for the 22 GHz water vapor line. The average 3-sigma noise level of the survey is 40 mJy for a 1 km/s channel, corresponding to a detection threshold for the isotropic maser luminosity of about 0.5 solar luminosities at a distance of 25 Mpc. Two detections are reported: a megamaser with an isotropic luminosity of approximately 35 solar luminosities in the Seyfert/HII galaxy NGC613 and a kilomaser of approximately 1 solar luminosity in the merger system NGC520.[abridged]
