摘要:

我们提出的光学数据为195高选择的星系,属于斯隆数字巡天(SDSS)和帕克斯赤道巡天(ES)。光度的数量已被独立重新计算为我们的样本使用一个新的光度管道优化的大型星系,从而纠正SDSS的有限的可靠性自动光度的角度大或低表面亮度(LSB)星系。我们概述了在SDSS目录级测光的不确定性的大小,并推导出一个定量的方法,用于校正在SDSS测光管道的天空减法。本文的主旨是介绍ES/SDSS样品,并讨论改进光度法背后的方法,这将用于未来的科学分析。我们提出的样品的整体光学性质,并简要地比较体积有限,光学选择的样品。与光学选择的SDSS样本相比(在类似的体积中),HI选择的星系更蓝,更亮(更少的矮椭圆星系和更多的恒星形成)。然而,与典型的SDSS星系研究相比,它们有自己的选择效应,我们的样本更蓝,更暗,质量更小。

英文摘要:

We present the optical data for 195 HI-selected galaxies that fall within both the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and the Parkes Equatorial Survey (ES). The photometric quantities have been independently recomputed for our sample using a new photometric pipeline optimized for large galaxies, thus correcting for SDSS's limited reliability for automatic photometry of angularly large or low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies. We outline the magnitude of the uncertainty in the SDSS catalog-level photometry and derive a quantitative method for correcting the over-sky subtraction in the SDSS photometric pipeline. The main thrust of this paper is to present the ES/SDSS sample and discuss the methods behind the improved photometry, which will be used in future scientific analysis. We present the overall optical properties of the sample and briefly compare to a volume-limited, optically-selected sample. Compared to the optically-selected SDSS sample (in the similar volume), HI-selected galaxies are bluer and more luminous (fewer dwarf ellipticals and more star formation). However, compared to typical SDSS galaxy studies, which have their own selection effects, our sample is bluer, fainter and less massive.
