M 81周围和某些dSph星系的发射火花

Emission sparks around M 81 and in some dSph galaxies

摘要:

我们使用位于M81和NGC 3077之间的三个年轻恒星团的H-α图像来估计它们的恒星形成率。我们测量的团簇的径向速度以及dSph星系KDG 61中HII区的速度与它们在M81周围的大旋转气体盘的外围的位置是一致的。与KDG 61相反,dSph星系DDO 44中发射结的径向速度为+213+-25 km/s,这告诉我们这个H-α火花属于dSph星系本身。从HST档案中提取的DDO 44的F475 W和F814 W图像显示了8颗蓝色(B-I < 0.8)恒星,显然与H-α结有关。

英文摘要:

We use H-alpha images of three clumps of young stars situated between M81 and NGC3077 to estimate their star formation rate. Radial velocities of the clumps measured by us, as well as the velocity of HII-region in the dSph galaxy KDG61 are compatible with their location at the outskirts of a large rotating gaseous disc around M81. In contrast to KDG61, radial velocity of the emission knot in the dSph galaxy DDO44, +213+-25 km/s, tells us that this H-alpha spark belongs to the dSph galaxy itself. F475W and F814W images of DDO44 extracted from the HST archive reveal 8 bluish (B-I < 0.8) stars apparently associated with the H-alpha knot.
