Star Formation Properties in Barred Galaxies (SFB). II. NGC 2903 and NGC 7080

Zhi-Min Zhou, Chen Cao, Hong Wu

摘要:

恒星棒对盘星系的长期演化很重要,因为它们可以将气体驱入星系中心区域。为了研究棒星系的恒星形成特性,我们对两个棒星系NGC 2903和NGC 7080进行了多波长研究。我们利用3.6 μm图像进行了三分量的球盘棒分解,确定了两个星系中的球是假球。基于窄带Hα图像,对恒星形成团进行了识别和分析。在两个星系中,隆起区的团块具有最高的恒星形成率面密度,而NGC 2903的棒中的恒星形成活动比NGC 7080的棒中的更强烈。最后,我们与以往研究中的棒驱动长期演化的情况进行了比较,并讨论了两个星系可能的演化阶段。

英文摘要:

Stellar bars are important for the secular evolution of disk galaxies because they can drive gas into the galactic central regions. To investigate the star formation properties in barred galaxies, we presented a multi-wavelength study of two barred galaxies NGC 2903 and NGC 7080. We performed the three-component bulge-disk-bar decomposition using the 3.6 μm images, and identified the bulges in the two galaxies as pseudobulges. Based on the narrowband Hα images, the star formation clumps were identified and analyzed. the clumps in the bulge regions have the highest star formation rate surface densities in both galaxies, while the star formation activities in the bar of NGC 2903 are more intense than those in the bar of NGC 7080. Finally, we compared with the scenario of bar-driven secular evolution in previous studies, and discussed the possible evolutionary stages of the two galaxies.
