摘要:

我们计算两点关联函数,并测量剪切信号,由于星系星系透镜的80,000光学识别和5,700射电大声AGN从数据发布4(DR 4)的斯隆数字巡天。晕占据模型被用来估计晕质量和卫星分数为这两种类型的活动星系核。大的样本量使我们能够根据其宿主星系的恒星质量来分离AGN。我们研究了在固定的M* 下,光学和射电活动星系核的晕质量与母体的晕质量的差异。从聚类和从透镜效应推导出的晕质量令人满意地一致。射电活动星系核比光学活动星系核存在于质量更大的晕中:在我们的样本中,它们的平均晕质量分别为1.6 x 10^{13}和8 x 10^{11} M_{sun} /h。光学AGN遵循相同的恒星质量和晕质量之间的关系,选择星系不考虑核属性,但射电响亮AGN偏离这个关系显着。射电噪声活动星系核的暗物质晕大约是相同恒星质量的控制星系的两倍。这种增强与射电光度无关,即使我们的分析仅限于场星系,它也会持续存在。星系的大尺度气体环境显然在产生可观测到的无线电辐射方面起着至关重要的作用。暗物质晕的质量,我们得到的活动星系核在我们的两个样本是在最近的模型,其中来自无线电活动星系核的反馈成为占主导地位的气体冷却准静态的晕。

英文摘要:

We compute two-point correlation functions and measure the shear signal due to galaxy-galaxy lensing for 80,000 optically identified and 5,700 radio-loud AGN from Data Release 4 (DR4) of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. Halo occupation models are used to estimate halo masses and satellite fractions for these two types of AGN. The large sample size allows us to separate AGN according to the stellar mass of their host galaxies. We study how the halo masses of optical and radio AGN differ from those of the parent population at fixed M*. Halo masses deduced from clustering and from lensing agree satisfactorily. Radio AGN are found in more massive halos than optical AGN: in our samples their mean halo masses are 1.6 x 10^{13} and 8 x 10^{11} M_{sun}/h, respectively. Optical AGN follow the same relation between stellar mass and halo mass as galaxies selected without regard to nuclear properties, but radio-loud AGN deviate significantly from this relation. The dark matter halos of radio-loud AGN are about twice as massive as those of control galaxies of the same stellar mass. This boost is independent of radio luminosity, and persists even when our analysis is restricted to field galaxies. The large-scale gaseous environment of the galaxy clearly plays a crucial role in producing observable radio emission. The dark matter halo masses that we derive for the AGN in our two samples are in good agreement with recent models in which feedback from radio AGN becomes dominant in halos where gas cools quasi-statically.
