摘要:

利用超深源HUDF 09和深源ERS的HST WFC 3/IR相机数据,以及GOODS-S的宽域Spitzer/IRAC数据,计算了恒星形成星系在z ~ 7 ~ z ~ 4的宽光度范围(M_1500 ~ -21 ~M_1500 ~ -18)内从静止坐标系UV到光学的SED。样本包含~ 400个z ~ 4,~ 120个z ~ 5,~ 60个z ~ 6和36个先前的z ~ 7星系。中值叠加使得第一次全面研究非常微弱的高z星系在多个红移(例如,[3.6]= 27.4 +/- 0.1 AB mag(对于z ~ 4处的M_1500 ~ -18源)。在z ~ 4处,我们的微弱中间叠加的SED达到~ 0.06 L*(z=4),并与最近发表的在高亮度L > L* 处延伸到M_1500 ~-23的结果相结合。我们使用所观察到的SED和模板拟合来推导所有红移和光度下的静止帧UV到光学颜色(U-V)。我们发现,这种颜色不随红移在一个固定的光度显着变化。紫外-可见光颜色确实显示出随光度变化的微弱趋势,在更高的光度下变得更红。这很可能是因为灰尘。在z >~ 5处,我们发现蓝色[3.6]-[4.5] ~ -0.3 mag,这很可能是由于静止帧光学发射线对IRAC滤波器带通中的通量有贡献。在我们推导的SED中的散射仍然很大,但结果与在给定光度下具有红移的SED中缺乏任何演化最一致。SED的相似性表明,在0.7 Gyr到1.5 Gyr的时间跨度内,存在一种自相似的演化模式,其中包括宇宙中恒星质量密度的大幅增长(从~ 4 × 10^6 Msun Mpc^-3到~ 2 × 10^7 Msun Mpc^-3)。

英文摘要:

We use the ultra-deep HUDF09 and the deep ERS data from the HST WFC3/IR camera, along with the wide area Spitzer/IRAC data from GOODS-S to derive SEDs of star-forming galaxies from the rest-frame UV to the optical over a wide luminosity range (M_1500 ~ -21 to M_1500 ~ -18) from z ~ 7 to z ~ 4. The sample contains ~ 400 z ~ 4, ~ 120 z ~ 5, ~ 60 z ~ 6, and 36 prior z ~ 7 galaxies. Median stacking enables the first comprehensive study of very faint high-z galaxies at multiple redshifts (e.g., [3.6] = 27.4 +/- 0.1 AB mag for the M_1500 ~ -18 sources at z ~ 4). At z ~ 4 our faint median-stacked SEDs reach to ~ 0.06 L*(z=4) and are combined with recently published results at high luminosity L > L* that extend to M_1500 ~ -23. We use the observed SEDs and template fits to derive rest frame UV-to-optical colors (U - V) at all redshifts and luminosities. We find that this color does not vary significantly with redshift at a fixed luminosity. The UV-to-optical color does show a weak trend with luminosity, becoming redder at higher luminosities. This is most likely due to dust. At z >~ 5 we find blue colors [3.6]-[4.5] ~ -0.3 mag that are most likely due to rest-frame optical emission lines contributing to the flux in the IRAC filter bandpasses. The scatter across our derived SEDs remains substantial, but the results are most consistent with a lack of any evolution in the SEDs with redshift at a given luminosity. The similarity of the SEDs suggests a self-similar mode of evolution over a timespan from 0.7 Gyr to 1.5 Gyr that encompasses very substantial growth in the stellar mass density in the universe (from ~ 4x10^6 to ~ 2x10^7 Msun Mpc^-3).
