摘要:

NGC 1097是附近的一个棒旋星系,据信正在与位于其西北部的椭圆星系NGC 1097 A相互作用。它拥有一个塞弗特1核,周围环绕着一个星暴环。两条笔直的尘埃带连接到环上,几乎连续不断地延伸到酒吧。尘埃带的另一端连接到两个主旋臂上。为了对其结构和运动学特性提供物理理解,进行了二维流体动力学模拟。数值计算表明,气体的形态和运动学的许多功能可以重现提供的气体流量是由一个缓慢旋转的强酒吧相关的重力势。在计算中考虑了气体盘的自引力,我们发现星暴环是引力不稳定的,这与\citet{hsieh11}的观测结果是一致的。我们的模拟表明,气体流入率为0.17 M $_\sun$年$^{-1}$到该地区内的星暴环,即使在其形成后,导致核环和环核盘的共存。

英文摘要:

NGC 1097 is a nearby barred spiral galaxy believed to be interacting with the elliptical galaxy NGC 1097A located to its northwest. It hosts a Seyfert 1 nucleus surrounded by a circumnuclear starburst ring. Two straight dust lanes connected to the ring extend almost continuously out to the bar. The other ends of the dust lanes attach to two main spiral arms. To provide a physical understanding of its structural and kinematical properties, two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations have been carried out. Numerical calculations reveal that many features of the gas morphology and kinematics can be reproduced provided that the gas flow is governed by a gravitational potential associated with a slowly rotating strong bar. By including the self-gravity of the gas disk in our calculation, we have found the starburst ring to be gravitationally unstable which is consistent with the observation in \citet{hsieh11}. Our simulations show that the gas inflow rate is 0.17 M$_\sun$ yr$^{-1}$ into the region within the starburst ring even after its formation, leading to the coexistence of both a nuclear ring and a circumnuclear disk.
