大质量星团中有残余恒星形成的红色序列星系的环境和形态

Environments and Morphologies of Red Sequence Galaxies with Residual Star Formation in Massive Clusters

Jacob P. Crossett, Kevin A. Pimbblet, John P. Stott, D. Heath Jones

摘要:

本文对z ~ 0.1的星系团中最近的恒星形成进行了光度学研究。我们使用光谱能量分布模板来量化最近的恒星形成在大型X射线选定的集群LARCS调查使用匹配GALEX NUV测光。这些星团都有红色序列星系最近恒星形成的迹象(如蓝色NUV-R颜色所示),无论星团的形态和大小。这些星系的环境中发现的趋势,使他们更喜欢占据低密度,高集群半径的环境。这些紫外线明亮星系的形态表明,它们实际上是红色螺旋,我们用光变曲线和星系动物园投票百分比作为形态代理来证实。因此,这些紫外线明亮的星系被认为是被截断的螺旋星系,在落入星系团时被冲压压力捕获,或者是高质量的螺旋星系,光度学由较老的恒星星族主导。

英文摘要:

We present a photometric investigation into recent star formation in galaxy clusters at z ~ 0.1. We use spectral energy distribution templates to quantify recent star formation in large X-ray selected clusters from the LARCS survey using matched GALEX NUV photometry. These clusters all have signs of red sequence galaxy recent star formation (as indicated by blue NUV-R colour), regardless of cluster morphology and size. A trend in environment is found for these galaxies, such that they prefer to occupy low density, high cluster radius environments. The morphology of these UV bright galaxies suggests that they are in fact red spirals, which we confirm with light curves and Galaxy Zoo voting percentages as morphological proxies. These UV bright galaxies are therefore seen to be either truncated spiral galaxies, caught by ram pressure in falling into the cluster, or high mass spirals, with the photometry dominated by the older stellar population.
