摘要:

我们在kpc尺度下对发射线星系的分辨性质进行了详细的研究,以探讨星系的小尺度性质和整体性质之间的关系。我们选取了119个具有高分辨率Keck/DEIMOS光谱的星系,它们覆盖了红移范围0.2<z<1.3的各种形态。使用HST/ACS和HST/WFC 3成像数据作为CANDELS项目的一部分,对于每个星系,我们执行每个分辨率元素的SED拟合,产生解析的静止帧U-V颜色,恒星质量,恒星形成率,年龄和灭绝地图。我们开发了一种技术,以确定蓝色和红色的“区域”在个别星系,使用其休息帧彩色地图。正如预期的那样,对于任何给定的星系,与蓝色区域相比,红色区域具有更高的恒星质量表面密度和更老的年龄。此外,我们量化的空间分布的红色和蓝色区域相对于红移和恒星质量,发现红色区域的浓度较强的星系中心是不是一个显着的函数,无论是红移或恒星质量。我们发现,星系内部的红区和蓝区都存在恒星形成星系的“主序列”,蓝区的中值与红区的斜率为1.3+/-0.1,分散度为~ 0.6 dex相比,蓝区的中值与红区的斜率为1.1 +/-0.1,分散度为~ 0.2 dex。蓝色区域比红色区域显示出更高的比恒星形成率(sSFR),sSFR从z~1开始下降,主要由恒星质量表面密度驱动,而不是给定分辨率元素下的SFR。

英文摘要:

We perform a detailed study of the resolved properties of emission-line galaxies at kpc-scale to investigate how small-scale and global properties of galaxies are related. 119 galaxies with high-resolution Keck/DEIMOS spectra are selected to cover a wide range in morphologies over the redshift range 0.2<z<1.3. Using the HST/ACS and HST/WFC3 imaging data taken as a part of the CANDELS project, for each galaxy we perform SED fitting per resolution element, producing resolved rest-frame U-V color, stellar mass, star formation rate, age and extinction maps. We develop a technique to identify blue and red "regions" within individual galaxies, using their rest-frame color maps. As expected, for any given galaxy, the red regions are found to have higher stellar mass surface densities and older ages compared to the blue regions. Furthermore, we quantify the spatial distribution of red and blue regions with respect to both redshift and stellar mass, finding that the stronger concentration of red regions toward the centers of galaxies is not a significant function of either redshift or stellar mass. We find that the "main sequence" of star forming galaxies exists among both red and blue regions inside galaxies, with the median of blue regions forming a tighter relation with a slope of 1.1+/-0.1 and a scatter of ~0.2 dex compared to red regions with a slope of 1.3+/-0.1 and a scatter of ~0.6 dex. The blue regions show higher specific Star Formation Rates (sSFR) than their red counterparts with the sSFR decreasing since z~1, driver primarily by the stellar mass surface densities rather than the SFRs at a giver resolution element.
