摘要:

我们利用1.4GHz VIMOS-VLA深度巡天、光学VVDS和CFHT-LS对射电噪星系和光学星系的性质进行了比较。多波段测光和高质量测光红移的可用性允许导出静止帧颜色和射电光度函数,直到B静止帧M=-20的极限。对射电噪和射电静的早、晚型星系,估算了z~1范围内的星系性质和光度函数。射电大声的晚型星系比射电安静的同类天体更红,这是一种与更强的恒星形成星系中存在更多尘埃有关的效应。此外,我们估计光学LF,恒星质量和恒星形成率分布的射电源,并将它们与那些来自一个定义良好的控制样本进行比较,发现一个星系的概率是一个无线电发射器显着增加在这些参数的高值。射电噪早型星系的双变量射电-光学LF的光度演化是由于射电-光学比的演化。射电噪早型星系的质量函数缺乏演化,这意味着在z<1时没有新的活动星系核形成。相反,射电大声晚型天体在亮度和密度上都表现出强烈的演化,当z>0.7时,射电LF。这种演化是这类强光学演化的直接效应,并且不需要射电-光学比随红移而发生显著变化。利用晚型星系的射电-光学比、光学LF和射电LF,用光学星系作为全球射电辐射的示踪物,估算了z~1.5范围内宇宙的恒星形成历史。

英文摘要:

(abridged) We use the 1.4 GHz VIMOS-VLA Deep Survey and the optical VVDS and the CFHT-LS to compare the properties of radio loud galaxies with respect to the whole population of optical galaxies. The availability of multiband photometry and high quality photometric redshifts allows to derive rest frame colors and radio luminosity functions down to a limit of a B rest-frame magnitude of M=-20. Galaxy properties and luminosity functions (LFs) are estimated up to z~1 for radio loud and radio quiet early and late type galaxies. Radio loud late type galaxies are redder than radio quiet objects of the same class and this is an effect related to the presence of more dust in stronger star forming galaxies. Moreover, we estimate optical LFs, stellar masses and star formation rate distributions for radio sources and compare them with those derived for a well defined control sample, finding that the probability for a galaxy to be a radio emitter significantly increases at high values of these parameters. Radio loud early type galaxies show luminosity evolution of their bivariate radio-optical LF, due to an evolution in the radio-optical ratio. The lack of evolution of the mass function of radio loud early type galaxies means that no new AGN are formed at z<1. On the contrary, radio loud late type objects show a strong evolution, both in luminosity and in density, of the radio LF for z>0.7. This evolution is the direct effect of the strong optical evolution of this class and no significant change with redshift of the radio-optical ratio is required. With the knowledge of the radio-optical ratio and the optical and radio LFs for late type galaxies, we estimated the star formation history of the Universe up to z~1.5, using optical galaxies as tracers of the global radio emission.
