摘要:

我们研究了位于星系M101中的巨大H II区域NGC 5455和NGC 5471的运动学,使用积分场观测,包括Hbeta和[O III] 5007发射线,获得与Keck宇宙网络成像仪。我们分析了使用单一和多个高斯曲线的线配置文件,收集证据的存在下,几个扩展壳和移动的细丝。谱线分解表明,一个广泛的(sigma = 30-50公里/秒)的基本组成部分是无处不在的,在数百个pc的延伸,而一个窄的组成部分的大部分具有亚音速线宽。从全局线廓线推断的超音速湍流与单个窄分量的速度弥散一致,即全局廓线可能是由离散气云的组合贡献引起的。我们确认在NGC 5471的三个明亮的恒星形成核心中存在非常延伸(400 - 1200 km/s)的低强度线分量,可能代表超新星遗迹的运动学特征。对于其中之一,已知的超新星遗迹主机NGC 5471 B,我们发现一个显着降低[O III]/H β线比相对于周围的光电离气体,由于存在低金属丰度的辐射冲击。我们探讨了H I和[O III]线之间的系统宽度差异,存在于全球和个人的光谱。我们认为,这个长期存在的问题的解决方案在于线发射气体的物理,而不是在不同的热宽度引起的拖尾效应。

英文摘要:

We study the kinematics of the giant H II regions NGC 5455 and NGC 5471 located in the galaxy M101, using integral field observations that include the Hbeta and [O III] 5007 emission lines, obtained with the Keck Cosmic Web Imager. We analyse the line profiles using both single and multiple Gaussian curves, gathering evidence for the presence of several expanding shells and moving filaments. The line decomposition shows that a broad (sigma = 30-50 km/s) underlying component is ubiquitous, extending across hundreds of pc, while a large fraction of the narrow components have subsonic line widths. The supersonic turbulence inferred from the global line profiles is consistent with the velocity dispersion of the individual narrow components, i.e. the global profiles likely arise from the combined contribution of discrete gas clouds. We confirm the presence of very extended (400 - 1200 km/s) low-intensity line components in three bright star-forming cores in NGC 5471, possibly representing kinematic signatures of supernova remnants. For one of these, the known supernova remnant host NGC 5471 B, we find a significantly reduced [O III]/Hbeta line ratio relative to the surrounding photoionized gas, due to the presence of a radiative shock at low metallicity. We explore the systematic width discrepancy between H I and [O III] lines, present in both global and individual spaxel spectra. We argue that the resolution of this long-standing problem lies in the physics of the line-emitting gas rather than in the smearing effects induced by the different thermal widths.
