SDSS-GALEX数据库中的发光恒星形成星系

Luminous star-forming galaxies in the SDSS-GALEX database

J. B. Hutchings, L. Bianchi

摘要:

我们使用组合的光度SDSS + GALEX数据库来寻找发光的蓝色恒星形成星系的人口。这些最初是从这样一个样品在红移接近0.4,使用SDSS光谱。我们利用以前定义的颜色指数来分离恒星和类星体,以定位更多这些不寻常的星系,到更暗的极限。它们在相关颜色星等图的两个不同区域中大量存在。在这些区域内,我们使用合奏7色测光估计人口的蓝色恒星形成星系的红移近0.4,并在红移近1,从一个完整的测光样本超过50万,主要由正常星系和类星体。

英文摘要:

We use the combined photometric SDSS + GALEX database to look for populations of luminous blue star-forming galaxies. These were initially identified from such a sample at redshifts near 0.4, using SDSS spectra. We make use of the colour index previously defined to separate stars and QSOs, to locate more of these unusual galaxies, to fainter limits. They are found in significant numbers in two different regions of the related colour-magnitude plot. Within these regions, we use the ensemble 7-colour photometry to estimate the populations of blue star-forming galaxies at redshift near 0.4, and at redshift near 1, from a full photometric sample of over half a million, composed mostly of normal galaxies and QSOs.
