摘要:

我们提出的结果的基础上的突出的尘埃带星暴星系NGC 1482的多波长成像观测,旨在研究存在于极端环境中的尘埃的消光特性。(B-V)星爆星系NGC 1482的色指数图证实了沿其光学主轴有两条明显的尘埃带,延伸至\sim 11千秒差距。除了主通道外,还可以看到几个起源于中心星爆的尘埃的平行结构。虽然尘埃周围有着奇异的环境,但这个目标星系的平均消光曲线与银河系曲线是一致的,RV =3.05,这意味着在目标星系中负责光学消光的尘埃颗粒与银河系中的正则颗粒并没有真正的不同。假设尘埃的屏蔽效应为\sim 2.7 \times 10^5 Msun,我们对NGC 1482的总尘埃含量进行了估计,并提供了下限,因为我们的方法对尘埃的混合成分不敏感。将星系中观测到的尘埃与SNe向ISM提供的尘埃进行比较,意味着这种供应不足以解释观测到的尘埃,因此指向该星系中尘埃的起源是通过类似合并的事件。我们的多波段成像分析揭示了该星系中尘埃和Hα发射线以及弥散X射线发射的形态之间的定性物理对应关系。继续...详情请参阅pdf档案。

英文摘要:

We present the results based on multiwavelength imaging observations of the prominent dust lane starburst galaxy NGC 1482 aimed to investigate the extinction properties of dust existing in the extreme environment. (B-V) colour-index map derived for the starburst galaxy NGC 1482 confirms two prominent dust lanes running along its optical major axis and are found to extend up to \sim 11 kpc. In addition to the main lanes, several filamentary structures of dust originating from the central starburst are also evident. Though, the dust is surrounded by exotic environment, the average extinction curve derived for this target galaxy is compatible with the Galactic curve, with RV =3.05, and imply that the dust grains responsible for the optical extinction in the target galaxy are not really different than the canonical grains in the Milky Way. Our estimate of total dust content of NGC 1482 assuming screening effect of dust is \sim 2.7 \times 10^5 Msun, and provide lower limit due to the fact that our method is not sensitive to the intermix component of dust. Comparison of the observed dust in the galaxy with that supplied by the SNe to the ISM, imply that this supply is not sufficient to account for the observed dust and hence point towards the origin of dust in this galaxy through a merger like event. Our multiband imaging analysis reveals a qualitative physical correspondence between the morphologies of the dust and Hα emission lines as well as diffuse X-ray emission in this galaxy. continue.... for more detail please see in pdf file.
