如何用积分场光谱法恢复棒星系盘中的两个速度分量

How to recover both velocity components in discs of barred galaxies with integral-field spectroscopy

Witold Maciejewski, Eric Emsellem, Davor Krajnović

摘要:

我们提出了一种新的方法,推导出两个速度分量在赤道平面的一个禁止恒星光盘从观察到的视线速度,假设一个薄盘的几何形状。该方法可以应用于大偏离圆周运动,并不需要多极分解。它是基于假设的酒吧是接近稳态(即不演变快),形态和运动学是对称的,相对于酒吧的主轴。推导了该方法所用的方程,并分析了观测误差对反演速度场的影响。我们表明,这种方法通过一个简单的玩具模型产生有意义的结果。我们也适用于积分场数据的NGC936的方法,我们恢复两个速度分量的磁盘。知道这两个速度分量的光盘,即不可观测的横向速度,除了视线速度,提出了额外的约束动力学模型,并允许新的方法来确定参数,是至关重要的特征星系。

英文摘要:

We present a new method that derives both velocity components in the equatorial plane of a barred stellar disc from the observed line-of-sight velocity, assuming geometry of a thin disc. The method can be applied to large departures from circular motion, and does not require multipole decomposition. It is based on assumptions that the bar is close to steady-state (i.e. does not evolve fast), and that both morphology and kinematics are symmetrical with respect to the major axis of the bar. We derive the equations used in the method, and analyze the effect of observational errors on the inferred velocity fields. We show that this method produces meaningful results via a simple toy model. We also apply the method on integral-field data of NGC 936, for which we recover both velocity components in the disc. Knowing both velocity components in the disc, i.e. the non-observable transverse velocity in addition to the line-of-sight velocity, puts additional constraints on dynamical models and allows for new ways of determining parameters that are crucial in characterizing galaxies.
