摘要:

本文介绍了在A2151星系团的中心区域的星系的Halpha成像调查的第一个结果。在Halalpha中共检测到50个放射源。43 H $α$选择的星系的形态范围从宏伟的设计螺旋和相互作用的星系到蓝色致密体和潮汐矮星或孤立的河外HII区域,与后发座星系团和A1367星系团以及场星系样本的比较表明,存在L(H α)星系团。低于预期的MB,这是集群环境的召唤。这一事实导致了团簇相对于场的L(H α)与EW(H α)和L(Hα)分布的差异,以及这些量在团簇之间的变化,我们认为这是由作为总质量的全局团簇性质驱动的。总的来说,我们的结论是,全球集群环境以及集群合并的历史发挥不可忽视的作用,星系团的整体恒星形成的性质。

英文摘要:

This paper presents the first results of an Halpha imaging survey of galaxies in the central regions of the A2151 cluster. A total of 50 sources were detected in Halpha. The morphologies of the 43 H$α$ selected galaxies range from grand design spirals and interacting galaxies to blue compacts and tidal dwarfs or isolated extragalactic HII regions, spanning a range of magnitudes of -21 <= MB <= -12.5 mag. A comparison with the clusters Coma and A1367 and a sample of field galaxies has shown the presence of cluster galaxies with L(Halpha) lower than expected for their MB, a consecuence of the cluster environment. This fact results in differences in the L(Halpha) vs. EW(Halpha) and L(Hα) distributions of the clusters with respect to the field, and in cluster to cluster variations of these quantities, which we propose are driven by a global cluster property as the total mass. Overall, we conclude that both, the global cluster environment as well as the cluster merging history play a non negligible role in the integral star formation properties of clusters of galaxies.
