摘要:

这项工作的目的是提供新的气相氧丰度测量的一个偶然的样本的27个星系的红移0.35<z<0.52。我们测量了安装在甚大望远镜上的可见光多目标摄谱仪观测到的星系光谱中[O II]λ3727,Hβ和[O III]λ4959,5007发射线的等效宽度。对于每个星系,我们推导出金属敏感的发射线比R23,电离敏感的发射线比O32,和气相氧丰度12+log(O/H)。我们获得的样品星系的气相氧丰度12+log(O/H)的值是一致的,与以前的研究结果的星系在中等红移。

英文摘要:

The purpose of this work is to make available new gas-phase oxygen abundance measurements for a serendipitous sample of 27 galaxies with redshift 0.35<z<0.52. We measured the equivalent widths of the [O II]λ3727, Hβ, and [O III]λλ4959, 5007 emission lines observed in the galaxy spectra obtained with the Visible Multi-Object Spectrograph mounted at the Very Large Telescope. For each galaxy, we derived the metallicity-sensitive emission lines ratio R23, ionization-sensitive emission lines ratio O32, and gas-phase oxygen abundance 12+log(O/H). The values of gas-phase oxygen abundance 12+log(O/H) we obtained for the sample galaxies are consistent with previous findings for galaxies at intermediate redshift.
