摘要:

我们提出了一个详细的分析无线电星系PKS 2250-351,一个巨大的1.2 Mpc的投影大小,它的宿主星系,它的环境。我们使用的无线电数据从默奇森宽场阵列,升级后的巨型米波长射电望远镜,澳大利亚平方公里阵列探路者,和澳大利亚望远镜紧凑型阵列模型的喷气功率和年龄。光学和红外数据来自星系和质量大会(GAMA)调查,并提供有关宿主星系和环境的信息。GAMA光谱证实PKS 2250-351位于z=0.2115的不规则的,可能是未松弛的,簇Abell 3936。我们发现它的宿主是一个巨大的,“红色和死亡”的椭圆星系,恒星形成可以忽略不计,但有一个高度模糊的活动星系核主导中红外辐射。假设它位于局部M-sigma关系上,则其爱丁顿吸积率为λ_EDD~0.014。我们发现,叶衍生的喷气功率(时间平均的措施)是一个数量级大于热点衍生的喷气功率(瞬时措施)。我们建议,在所观察到的无线电发射的寿命(~300百万年)的吸积已经从一个低效的平流为主的模式切换到薄盘有效的模式,一致的喷气功率的减少。我们还认为,不对称的无线电形态是由于它的环境,与主机的PKS 2250-351躺在西方的密集的星系在Abell 3936。

英文摘要:

We present a detailed analysis of the radio galaxy PKS 2250-351, a giant of 1.2 Mpc projected size, its host galaxy, and its environment. We use radio data from the Murchison Widefield Array, the upgraded Giant Metre-wavelength Radio Telescope, the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder, and the Australia Telescope Compact Array to model the jet power and age. Optical and infra-red data come from the Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey and provide information on the host galaxy and environment. GAMA spectroscopy confirms that PKS 2250-351 lies at z=0.2115 in the irregular, and likely unrelaxed, cluster Abell 3936. We find its host is a massive, `red and dead' elliptical galaxy with negligible star formation but with a highly obscured active galactic nucleus dominating the mid-infrared emission. Assuming it lies on the local M-sigma relation it has an Eddington accretion rate of lambda_EDD~0.014. We find that the lobe-derived jet power (a time-averaged measure) is an order of magnitude greater than the hotspot-derived jet power (an instantaneous measure). We propose that over the lifetime of the observed radio emission (~300 Myr) the accretion has switched from an inefficient advection dominated mode to a thin-disc efficient mode, consistent with the decrease in jet power. We also suggest that the asymmetric radio morphology is due to its environment, with the host of PKS 2250-351 lying to the west of the densest concentration of galaxies in Abell 3936.
