摘要:

我们报告了一个基于ALFA 08度< delta < 16度带的室女星系团80度^2的HI盲态巡天的结果,即阿雷西博遗产快速ALFA巡天。在室女星系团(-1000<cz<3000 km/s)的这一区域内发现了187个高意义的HI源,提供了一个完整的HI源普查,其M_H> 10^7.5-8 M_sun。156/187(83%)的来源被确定为室女星系团目录(Binggeli et al. 1985)中的光学星系,除了8个外,其余都是晚型星系。十个源与光学星系无关,并被发现对应于潮汐扰动系统(参见Kent等人2007和Haynes、Giovanelli和Kent 2007)。剩下的21个(11%)与不在室女星系团目录中的星系有关。对于斯隆数字巡天中具有光学对应物的所有源,我们分析了i波段SDSS板以测量光学结构参数。我们发现在室女星系团中:i)HI存在于结构上类似于普通晚型星系的星系中; ii)HI含量可以从它们的光学光度预测; iii)低表面亮度星系具有低的光学光度,含有少量的中性氢; iv)低表面亮度、大质量的Malin 1型星系是非常罕见的天体(小于0.5%); v)没有HI质量M_HI > 10^7.5-8 M_sun的“暗星系”; vi)小于1%的早型星系含有M_HI>10^7.5-8 M_sun的中性氢(di Serego Alighieri et al. 2007)。

英文摘要:

We report the results of an HI blind survey of 80deg^2 of the Virgo cluster, based on the 08deg < delta < 16 deg strip of ALFALFA, the Arecibo Legacy Fast ALFA Survey. 187 HI sources of high significance are found providing a complete census of HI sources in this region of the Virgo cluster (-1000<cz<3000 km/s) with M_HI > 10^7.5-8 M_sun. 156/187 (83%) sources are identified with optical galaxies from the Virgo Cluster Catalogue (Binggeli et al. 1985), all but 8 with late-type galaxies. Ten sources are not associated with optical galaxies and were found to correspond to tidally-disrupted systems (see Kent et al. 2007 and Haynes, Giovanelli and Kent 2007). The remaining 21 (11%) are associated with galaxies that are not listed in the Virgo Cluster Catalogue. For all sources with an optical counterpart in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, we analyzed i-band SDSS plates to measure optical structural parameters. We find that in the Virgo cluster: i) HI inhabits galaxies that are structurally similar to ordinary late-type galaxies; ii) their HI content can be predicted from their optical luminosity; iii) low surface brightness galaxies have low optical luminosity and contain small quantities of neutral hydrogen; iv) low surface brightness, massive Malin1 type galaxies are comfortably rare objects (less than 0.5%); v) there are no "dark-galaxies" with HI masses M_HI > 10^7.5-8 M_sun; vi) less than 1% of early-type galaxies contain neutral hydrogen with M_HI>10^7.5-8 M_sun (di Serego Alighieri et al. 2007).
