哈勃超深场中红移统一以来色log(n)型星系演化

Galaxy evolution by color-log(n) type since redshift unity in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field

Ewan Cameron, Simon P. Driver

摘要:

我们探索使用的颜色log(n)平面(其中n是全球Sersic指数)作为一种工具,细分高红移星系人口的物理动机的方式。使用一系列的体积有限的样品在哈勃超深场(UDF)的z=1.5,我们确认的颜色对数(n)平面位置和视觉形态观察本地和其他高红移研究中的颜色和/或结构域之间的相关性。通过与千年星系目录中的低红移样本进行比较,我们通过颜色对数(n)类型量化了进化,分别考虑了每个样本的特定选择和测量偏差。具体来说,我们测量的B波段表面亮度的减少1.57 +/- 0.22 mag/sq.arcsec和1.65 +/- 0.22 mag/sq.arcsec的“蓝色,弥漫”和“红色,紧凑”星系分别在红移单位和现在的一天。

英文摘要:

We explore the use of the color-log(n) plane (where n is the global Sersic index) as a tool for subdividing the high redshift galaxy population in a physically-motivated manner. Using a series of volume-limited samples out to z=1.5 in the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (UDF) we confirm the correlation between color-log(n) plane position and visual morphology observed locally and in other high redshift studies in the color and/or structure domain. Via comparison to a low redshift sample from the Millennium Galaxy Catalogue we quantify evolution by color-log(n) type, accounting separately for the specific selection and measurement biases against each. Specifically, we measure decreases in B-band surface brightness of 1.57 +/- 0.22 mag/sq.arcsec and 1.65 +/- 0.22 mag/sq.arcsec for `blue, diffuse' and `red, compact' galaxies respectively between redshift unity and the present day.
