Seyfert星系的Spitzer光谱

Spitzer spectra of Seyfert galaxies

Luigi Spinoglio, Silvia Tommasin, Matthew A. Malkan, Kevin Hainline

摘要:

本文给出并讨论了12 μ m星系样品中约90个Seyfert星系的Spitzer IRS高分辨光谱。这些代表了大约70%的本地塞弗特星系的总完整样本。强有力的中红外诊断工具(如11.25 μ m PAH特征等效宽度和H_2发射线强度)可以定量分析这些星系中是否存在星暴成分,而AGN的优势可以通过特定的精细结构谱线比值(如[NeV]/[NeII],[NeV]/[SiII]等)来测量。观测到的线比进行比较的半解析模型的结果,它可以用来计算AGN和星爆的总光度的星系的贡献。并根据统一模型和演化模型对结果进行了讨论。

英文摘要:

The Spitzer IRS high resolution spectra of about 90 Seyfert galaxies from the 12um Galaxy Sample are presented and discussed. These represent about 70% of the total complete sample of local Seyfert galaxies. The presence of starburst components in these galaxies can be quantified by powerful mid-IR diagnostics tools (i.e. 11.25um PAH feature equivalent width and the H_2 emission line intensity) as well as the AGN dominance can be measured by specific fine structure line ratios (e.g. [NeV]/[NeII], [NeV]/[SiII], etc.). The observed line ratios are compared to the results of semianalytical models, which can be used to compute the AGN and starburst contributions to the total luminosity of the galaxies. The results are also discussed in the light of unification and evolution models.
