寻找具有不寻常HI含量的星系

Finding galaxies with unusual HI content

Helga Dénes, Virginia A. Kilborn, Bärbel S. Koribalski

摘要:

观测表明,星系团中的星系受到其环境的强烈影响。越来越多的证据表明,星系群中的一些星系显示出与星系团中的星系相似的性质,例如更红的颜色和气体缺乏,这突出表明环境过程在星系群尺度上也是有效的。问题是,在低密度环境中,哪些机制是重要的?为了回答这个问题,我们确定气体缺乏星系调查最近或正在进行的环境过程,如气体剥离。我们正在使用的中性氢(HI)的含量和星系的光学性质之间的标度关系,以确定显着低于HI比平均星系的同一类型的星系。我们推导出新的,多波长HI光学缩放关系使用HI帕克斯全天巡天(HIPASS)与光学和近红外数据集。我们还显示了我们的初步结果,从6个HI缺乏星系,我们确定在低密度环境中的样本的观测。

英文摘要:

Observations show that galaxies in galaxy clusters are strongly influenced by their environment. There is growing evidence that some galaxies in groups show similar properties to galaxies in clusters, such as redder colours and gas deficiency, highlighting that environmental processes are also effective on galaxy group scales. The question is though, which mechanisms are important in low density environments? To answer this, we identify gas deficient galaxies to investigate recent or ongoing environmental processes, such as gas stripping. We are using scaling relations between the neutral hydrogen (HI) content and optical properties of galaxies to identify galaxies with significantly less HI than an average galaxy of the same type. We derive new, multi wavelength HI-optical scaling relations using the HI Parkes All Sky Survey (HIPASS) with optical and near infrared datasets. We also show our preliminary results from observations of a sample of 6 HI-deficient galaxies, which we identified in low density environments.
