摘要:

先前对蓝色致密星系(BCG)Haro 11的低表面亮度宿主的研究表明,宿主星系的V-K=4.2+-0.8的异常红色。这种颜色与任何正常的恒星星族在很宽的恒星金属丰度范围内(Z=0.001-0.02)都不一致。类似的,但不太极端的主机颜色已被测量为其他BCGs,并可能与人口合成模型,只要恒星金属的主机是高于中央星暴的电离气体。我们提出了最深的V和K波段观测到的日期哈罗11和推导出一个新的V-K色的宿主星系。我们的新数据表明,V-K=2.3+-0.2的颜色远没有那么极端,这与对一个古老的宿主星系的预期完全一致,该星系的金属含量与恒星形成中心的星云发射线相同。

英文摘要:

Previous studies of the low surface brightness host of the blue compact galaxy (BCG) Haro 11 have suggested an abnormally red color of V-K=4.2+-0.8 for the host galaxy. This color is inconsistent with any normal stellar population over a wide range of stellar metallicities (Z=0.001-0.02). Similar though less extreme host colors have been measured for other BCGs and may be reconciled with population synthesis models, provided that the stellar metallicity of the host is higher than that of the ionized gas in the central starburst. We present the deepest V and K band observations to date of Haro 11 and derive a new V-K color for the host galaxy. Our new data suggest a far less extreme colour of V-K=2.3+-0.2, which is perfectly consistent with the expectations for an old host galaxy with the same metallicty as that derived from nebular emission lines in the star-forming center.
