摘要:

上下文高红移Tully-Fisher关系的研究受到长缝摄谱仪、静止标架B带和恒星形成选择星系的限制。目标。我们试图规避这些问题,通过使用积分场光谱(SINFONI),通过研究的休息帧K波段和恒星质量TFR,并通过选择目标没有偏见,强烈的恒星形成星系。在本文中,我们证明了我们的方法在我们的最佳情况。这个星系,F257,z=2.03,是从哈勃深空南部的候选高红移大圆盘星系中选出的,这些星系是用光度和形态标准选出的。方法.我们使用SINFONI在VLT获得一个积分场谱的H α线,因此速度场和旋转曲线。我们还使用UBVIJHK+IRAC波段测光来确定恒星的光度质量。结果我们发现F257在许多方面与局域晚型星系没有区别:它具有规则的速度场,速度向中心逐渐增加,自转曲线在1-2个盘尺度长度上呈抛物线状,比角动量与局域盘相同,其性质与局域K带TFR一致。虽然主要是旋转支撑,它的气体成分是动态加热相对于本地星系(V/sigma_z ~ 4),它是从本地恒星质量TFR在2sigma水平偏移。但是,该偏移取决于SED建模参数。特别是,对于一个2分量的恒星形成史(SFH),F257与当地恒星质量TFR是一致的。F257则是一个接近(~75%)的最大圆盘。F257的动力学性质比迄今为止观测到的具有类似红移的任何其他星系更像本星系。然而,气体与恒星的质量比非常大:2.5。

英文摘要:

Context. The study of high redshift Tully-Fisher relations (TFRs) is limited by the use of long slit spectrographs, rest frame B band and star formation selected galaxies. Aims. We try to circumvent these issues by using integral field spectroscopy (SINFONI), by studying the rest frame K band and stellar mass TFR, and by selecting targets without a bias to strongly star forming galaxies. In this paper, we demonstrate our methods on our best case. This galaxy, F257, at z=2.03, was selecte from a sample of candidate high redshift large disk galaxies in the Hubble Deep Field South that were selected with photometric and morphological criteria. Methods. We used SINFONI at the VLT to obtain an integral field spectrum of the Halpha line and hence a velocity field and rotation curve. We also use UBVIJHK+IRAC band photometry to determine a stellar photometric mass. Results. We find that F257 is indistinguishable from local late type galaxies in many respects: it has a regular velocity field, increasing velocity disperion towards its center, its rotation curve flattens at 1-2 disk scale lengths, it has the same specific angular momentum as local disks, its properties are consistent with the local K band TFR. Although mainly rotationally supported, its gas component is dynamically heated with respect to local galaxies (V/sigma_z ~ 4) and it is offset from the local stellar mass TFR at the 2sigma level. But, this offset depends on the SED modeling parameters. In particular, for a 2-component star formation history (SFH), F257 is in agreement with the local stellar mass TFR. F257 is then a nearly (~75%) maximum disk. The dynamical properties of F257 are more like those of local galaxies than those of any other galaxy at similar redshift observed to date. However, the gas-to-stellar mass ratio is unusally large: 2.5.
