摘要:

尘埃带平分了一个典型的边缘螺旋星系的平面,这是一个暗的光学吸收特征。它们的出现与螺旋盘的引力稳定性有关;边缘星系中显示出尘埃带的部分是引力和湍流之间典型垂直平衡的直接指标;恒星形成的能量输入和进入盘平面的引力之间的平衡。基于星系和质量组装(GAMA)领域中的星系~动物园项目对千度巡天(KiDS)成像数据的形态分类,我们探索了尘埃带与星系特征的关系,其中大部分是使用{ \sc magphys}光谱能量分布拟合工具确定的:恒星质量,总的和特定的恒星形成率,以及描述冷尘埃成分的几个参数。我们发现尘埃带的比例确实取决于星系的恒星质量;它们开始出现在$M^* \sim 10^9 M_\odot$。尘埃带也强烈暗示尘埃质量至少为$10^5 M_\odot$,但除此之外与{ \sc magphys}光谱能量分布分析的冷尘埃质量参数无关,也与恒星形成率(具体或总体)无关。尘埃带的识别不依赖于磁盘椭圆度(磁盘厚度)或Sersic配置文件,但与凸起形态相关;一个圆形的凸起有利于尘埃带投票。沿视线的中心分量产生的尘埃带与{ \sc magphys}拟合的分量、冷扩散分量或HII区域的局部加热分量中的任何一个都不相关,而是这两个的混合。

英文摘要:

Dust lanes bisect the plane of a typical edge-on spiral galaxy as a dark optical absorption feature. Their appearance is linked to the gravitational stability of spiral disks; the fraction of edge-on galaxies that displays a dust lane is a direct indicator of the typical vertical balance between gravity and turbulence; a balance struck between the energy input from star-formation and the gravitational pull into the plane of the disk. Based on morphological classifications by the Galaxy~Zoo project on the Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS) imaging data in the Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA) fields, we explore the relation of dust lanes to the galaxy characteristics, most of which were determined using the {\sc magphys} spectral energy distribution fitting tool: stellar mass, total and specific star-formation rates, and several parameters describing the cold dust component. We find that the fraction of dust lanes does depend on the stellar mass of the galaxy; they start to appear at $M^* \sim 10^9 M_\odot$. A dust lane also implies strongly a dust mass of at least $10^5 M_\odot$, but otherwise does not correlate with cold dust mass parameters of the {\sc magphys} spectral energy distribution analysis, nor is there a link with star-formation rate, specific or total. Dust lane identification does not depend on disk ellipticity (disk thickness) or Sersic profile but correlates with bulge morphology; a round bulge favors dust lane votes. The central component along the line of sight that produces the dust lane is not associated with either one of the components fit by {\sc magphys}, the cold diffuse component or the localized, heated component in HII regions, but a mix of these two.
