摘要:

我们提出了FIGGS 2调查的观察结果和初步结果。图2是较早的微弱不规则星系GMRT巡天(图2)向微弱光度端的延伸。该样品由20个星系组成,其中15个是用巨米波射电望远镜(GMRT)在HI 21厘米线上探测到的。我们样本的蓝带星等中位数为~-11.6,比早期的FIGGS调查暗一个多星等。从我们的GMRT观测中,我们发现,对于我们的许多样本星系,HI盘从它们的光盘偏移。FIGGS 2星系的HI直径与它们的HI质量密切相关。相关性的斜率为2.08 +/- 0.20,与FIGGS星系相似。我们还发现,几乎所有的星系,HI盘大于光盘,这是一个共同的趋势矮星系或旋涡星系。HI与光学直径之比的平均值为~ 1.54。

英文摘要:

We present the observations and first results from the FIGGS2 survey. FIGGS2 is an extension of the earlier Faint Irregular Galaxies GMRT survey (FIGGS) towards faint luminosity end. The sample consists of 20 galaxies of which 15 were detected in HI 21cm line using the Giant Meter-wave Radio Telescope (GMRT). The median blue band magnitude of our sample is ~ -11.6, which is more than one magnitude fainter than earlier FIGGS survey. From our GMRT observations we find that, for many of our sample galaxies, the HI disks are offset from their optical disks. The HI diameters of the FIGGS2 galaxies show a tight correlation with their HI mass. The slope of the correlation is 2.08 +/- 0.20 similar to what is found for FIGGS galaxies. We also find that for almost all galaxies, the HI disks are larger than the optical disks which is a common trend for dwarf or spiral galaxies. The mean value of the ratio of HI to optical diameter is ~ 1.54.
