摘要:

我们讨论了NGC 4151窄线区(NLR)的近红外发射线强度分布和运动学的二维映射,获得了Gemini近红外积分场光谱仪,投影空间分辨率为~ 8 pc。电离气体的强度分布如下的投影双锥形态观察到在以前的光学窄带图像,其运动学揭示沿双锥流出。我们提出了一个运动学模型,在这个模型中,NLR中的气体以约600 km s^-1的速度运动到离核约100 pc的位置。一个完全不同的形态和运动学结构观察的分子气体,它避免了双锥的区域,并具有接近系统的速度,是一致的星系平面中的起源。因此,分子气体跟踪活动星系核的馈送,而电离气体跟踪其反馈。

英文摘要:

We discuss two-dimensional mapping of the near-infrared emission-line intensity distributions and kinematics of the narrow-line region (NLR) of NGC 4151, obtained with the Gemini Near-Infrared Integral Field Spectrograph, with a projected spatial resolution of ~8pc. The ionized gas intensity distribution follows the projected bi-cone morphology observed in previous optical narrow-band images, and its kinematics reveal outflows along the bi-cone. We propose a kinematic model in which the gas in the NLR moves at a velocity of ~600 km s^-1 up to ~100 pc from the nucleus. A completely distinct morphology and kinematic structure is observed for the molecular gas, which avoids the region of the bi-cone and has velocities close to systemic, and is consistent with an origin in the galaxy plane. The molecular gas thus traces the AGN feeding, while the ionized gas traces its feedback.
