摘要:

电离参数映射(IPM)是追踪大质量恒星莱曼连续辐射光学厚度的一种有效方法。利用窄带线比图,我们研究了麦哲伦星云和附近星暴星系的普通HII区域的辐射反馈趋势。我们发现,总逃逸分数的莱曼连续体是足够的扩散,温暖的电离介质中的麦哲伦星云,更明亮的星云更有可能是光学薄。我们应用电离参数映射到整个星爆星系,揭示了电离锥在两个附近的星爆。在我们的小样本的范围内,我们检查的条件下传播的电离辐射超出宿主星系。

英文摘要:

Ionization-parameter mapping (IPM) is a powerful technique for tracing the optical depth of Lyman continuum radiation from massive stars. Using narrow-band line-ratio maps, we examine trends in radiative feedback from ordinary HII regions of the Magellanic Clouds and nearby starburst galaxies. We find that the aggregate escape fraction for the Lyman continuum is sufficient to ionize the diffuse, warm ionized medium in the Magellanic Clouds, and that more luminous nebulae are more likely to be optically thin. We apply ionization-parameter mapping to entire starburst galaxies, revealing ionization cones in two nearby starbursts. Within the limits of our small sample, we examine the conditions for the propagation of ionizing radiation beyond the host galaxies.
