摘要:

在AEGIS 20 S(1.4 GHz)> 50微焦样品中,除了510个射电源中的一个之外,扩展Groth条带的红外3.6至8微米图像产生了所有可能的对应识别。这是第一个100%被有效识别的深度样本。在R波段达到相同的识别率需要观测值达到R_AB > 27。光谱红移可用于46%的样品和光度红移为额外的47%。几乎所有亮度大于19的3.6微米AB星等的源的光谱红移z < 1.1,而较暗的天体的光度红移主要为1 \lapprox z \lapprox 3。与更强大的射电源不同,这些射电源由在相对较窄范围内具有大恒星质量的星系托管,AEGIS 20对应物的恒星质量在z \sim 1处超过10倍。这些源大约有10- 15%是z \lapprox 0.5的星暴,20- 25%是z > 1的活动星系核,其余的性质不确定。

英文摘要:

Infrared 3.6 to 8 micron images of the Extended Groth Strip yield plausible counterpart identifications for all but one of 510 radio sources in the AEGIS20 S(1.4 GHz) > 50 micro-Jy sample. This is the first such deep sample that has been effectively 100% identified. Achieving the same identification rate at R-band would require observations reaching R_AB > 27. Spectroscopic redshifts are available for 46% of the sample and photometric redshifts for an additional 47%. Almost all of the sources with 3.6 micron AB magnitudes brighter than 19 have spectroscopic redshifts z < 1.1, while fainter objects predominantly have photometric redshifts with 1 \lapprox z \lapprox 3. Unlike more powerful radio sources that are hosted by galaxies having large stellar masses within a relatively narrow range, the AEGIS20 counterparts have stellar masses spanning more than a factor of 10 at z \sim 1. The sources are roughly 10--15% starbursts at z \lapprox 0.5 and 20--25% AGNs mostly at z > 1 with the remainder of uncertain nature.
