摘要:

我们提出了新的矮星系KK 69的HI数据,获得了巨大的米波射电望远镜(GMRT)的信噪比,几乎是以前的观测的两倍。本文采用高斯谱分解和叠加方法对HI气体的冷中性介质和暖中性介质进行了识别。我们发现,30%的总HI气体,这对应于一个大约的质量。10^7 Mo,处于CNM相。KK 69中HI的分布是不对称的。我们将KK 69的GMRT HI强度图叠加到哈勃太空望远镜图像上,显示出大约1.5倍的偏移量。在HI高密度区和恒星体之间的距离为4kpc,表明它可能是一个矮过渡星系。这种偏移,以及HI天体可能的截断,是与中心群螺旋星系NGC 2683相互作用的证据,表明HI气体正在从KK 69中剥离。此外,我们还探测到了该星系群中一个矮星系成员的HI辐射,以及一个可能位于NGC 2683 HI盘东北部附近的新星系。

英文摘要:

We present new HI data of the dwarf galaxy KK 69, obtained with the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) with a signal-to-noise ratio that almost double previous observations. We carried out a Gaussian spectral decomposition and stacking methods to identify the cold neutral medium (CNM) and the warm neutral medium (WNM) of the HI gas. We found that 30% of the total HI gas, which corresponds to a mass of approx. 10^7 Mo, is in the CNM phase. The distribution of the HI in KK 69 is not symmetric. Our GMRT HI intensity map of KK 69 overlaid onto a Hubble Space Telescope image reveals an offset of approx. 4 kpc between the HI high-density region and the stellar body, indicating it may be a dwarf transitional galaxy. The offset, along with the potential truncation of the HI body, are evidence of interaction with the central group spiral galaxy NGC 2683, indicating the HI gas is being stripped from KK 69. Additionally, we detected extended HI emission of a dwarf galaxy member of the group as well as a possible new galaxy located near the north-eastern part of the NGC 2683 HI disk.
