光谱能量分布拟合在莱曼α发射半导体中的应用

Spectral Energy Distribution Fitting: Application to Lyman Alpha-Emitting Galaxies

Eric Gawiser

摘要:

光谱能量分布(SED)拟合是一个发展良好的天体物理工具,最近已被应用于高红移莱曼α发射星系。如果静止帧紫外到近红外测光是可用的,它允许同时确定恒星形成的历史和尘埃灭绝的星系。从文献中得到的莱曼α辐射源SED拟合结果发现,恒星形成率约为3 M太阳/年,恒星质量一般约为10^9 M太阳,但IRAC检测到的子集约为10^10 M太阳,尘埃消光非常低,A_V < 0.3,尽管一些外围分析认为尘埃明显更多,恒星形成率更高。讨论了执行SED拟合时必须做出的14个关键选择的清单。

英文摘要:

Spectral Energy Distribution (SED) fitting is a well-developed astrophysical tool that has recently been applied to high-redshift Lyman Alpha-emitting galaxies. If rest-frame ultraviolet through near-infrared photometry is available, it allows the simultaneous determination of the star formation history and dust extinction of a galaxy. Lyman Alpha-emitter SED fitting results from the literature find star formation rates ~3 M_sun/yr, stellar masses ~10^9 M_sun for the general population but ~10^10 M_sun for the subset detected by IRAC, and very low dust extinction, A_V < 0.3, although a couple of outlying analyses prefer significantly more dust and higher intrinsic star formation rates. A checklist of 14 critical choices that must be made when performing SED fitting is discussed.
