The discovery of the ultra-diffuse galaxy NGC 1052-DF2 and its peculiar population of star clusters has raised new questions about the connections between galaxies and dark matter halos at the extremes of galaxy formation. In light of debates over the measured velocity dispersion of its star clusters and the associated mass estimate, we constrain mass models of DF2 using its observed kinematics with a range of priors on the halo mass. Models in which the galaxy obeys a standard stellar-halo mass relation are in tension with the data and also require a large central density core. Better fits are obtained when the halo mass is left free, even after accounting for increased model complexity. The dynamical mass-to-light ratio for our model with a weak prior on the halo mass is $1.7^{+0.7}_{-0.5} \ M_\odot / L_{\odot, V}$, consistent with the stellar population estimate for DF2. We use tidal analysis to find that the low-mass models are consistent with the undisturbed isophotes of DF2. Finally we compare with Local Group dwarf galaxies and demonstrate that DF2 is an outlier in both its spatial extent and its relative dark matter deficit.

High Resolution Imaging of PHIBSS z~2 Main Sequence Galaxies in CO J=1-0
我们介绍卡尔G。Jansky甚大阵列对四个$z\sim2$主序星星系中CO J=1-0跃迁的观测。这些星系在它们的红移上是在恒星形成星系的蓝色序列中,并且是IRAM Plateau de Bure HIgh- $z$蓝色序列巡天(PHIBSS)的一部分,该巡天在CO J=3-2拍摄了它们。两个星系在高信噪比下成像,可以确定它们的盘大小,线轮廓,分子表面密度和激发。使用这些和已发表的测量,我们表明,CO和光盘有相似的大小在主序星星系,并在星系中,我们可以比较CO J=1-0和J=3-2的大小,我们发现这些也非常相似。假设一个银河系CO到H的$_2$转换,我们测量$Σ_{mol}\sim1200$ M $_\odot$ pc $^{-2}$的表面密度在投影和估计$Σ_{mol}\sim500-900$ M $_\odot$ pc $^{-2}$去投影。最后,我们的数据产生速度积分瑞利-金斯亮度温度线比$r_{31}$是近似统一的。除了相似的盘大小,在J=1-0和J=3-2非常相似的线轮廓表明,这两个过渡采样相同的运动学,这意味着他们的发射是同延的。我们的结论是,在这两个主序星星系有显着的激发梯度或一个大的分子水库,是弥漫或冷,不参与活跃的恒星形成的证据。我们认为,$r_{31}$在非常活跃的恒星形成星系可能是一个指标,以及混合的恒星形成活动和分子库。

Massive star feedback in clusters: variation of the FUV interstellar radiation field in time and space
利用三维辐射流体力学(RHD)模型研究了34 M $_\odot$恒星在$10^4$ M $_\odot$湍流云中的辐射反馈。我们使用蒙特卡罗辐射转移精确计算光电离平衡和辐射压力,与多个原子物种和硅酸盐尘埃颗粒。我们包括漫射辐射场,灰尘吸收/再发射,和散射。云被有效地分散,75%的质量在430万年(110万年$t_{ff}$)内离开$^3$网格(32.3pc)。这与我们以前发表的$10^3$ M $_\odot$云中160万年(0.74 $t_{ff}$)内的所有质量进行了比较。最多有20%的质量是电离的,而在较低质量的模型中是40%,尽管两者的电离体积分数都是80%,这意味着较高质量的云对反馈更具弹性。总的Jeans不稳定质量线性增加到1500 M $_\odot$,然后在200万年后趋于稳定,对应于15%的核心形成效率。我们还测量了远紫外(FUV)辐射场的时间变化,$G_0$,撞击其他集群成员,第一次考虑到这是如何在动态集群环境中与干预不透明源和恒星运动的变化。在最初的0.5百万年里,许多天体仍然被遮蔽,而大质量恒星被嵌入其中,之后$G_0$以数量级增加。后来的气体运动引起了类似的瞬间下降,并在恢复之前持续了$\sim$ 1百万年。这种高度变化的紫外光场将影响大质量恒星附近原行星盘的光蒸发。
