摘要:

这是第六篇介绍缪斯无线电强辐射谱线快照调查(MURALES)结果的论文。我们在VLT上用MUSE光学积分场谱仪观测了37个z<0.3、dec <20 °的3C样品射电源。在这里,我们专注于扩展发射线区域(EELR)的属性,由于这些观测的深度,可以以前所未有的细节进行研究。在大多数情况下,10个FRI中的线发射被限制在<4 kpc的范围内,而在26个FRI中,除了两个之外,都可以看到大尺度(>4 kpc)的电离气体。它通常采取细长或细长结构的形式,通常延伸10至30 kpc,但也可达到~80 kpc的距离。我们发现:(1)大尺度电离气体结构倾向于与射电轴成大角度取向;(2)离核几千秒差距尺度的电离气体经常表现出有序旋转,其运动学轴与射电轴成65度的中位角。我们还讨论了EELR的速度场和电离特性。所观察到的发射线结构似乎与气体“超级盘”后形成的气体丰富的合并。EELR的不同性质可以用源的演化状态和“超盘”相对于射电轴的取向相结合来解释。超盘和射电轴之间的一般对齐可能是由长时间尺度上保持的稳定和相干吸积产生的。

英文摘要:

This is the sixth paper presenting the results of the MUse RAdio Loud Emission line Snapshot survey (MURALES). We observed 37 radio sources from the 3C sample with z<0.3 and declination <20 degrees with the MUSE optical integral field spectrograph at the VLT. We here focus on the properties of the extended emission line regions (EELRs) that can be studied with unprecedented detail thanks to the depth of these observations. Line emission in the 10 FRIs is, in most cases, confined to within <4 kpc, while large-scale (>4 kpc) ionized gas is seen in all but two of the 26 FRIIs. It usually takes the form of elongated or filamentary structures, typically extending between 10 and 30 kpc, but also reaching distances of ~80 kpc. We find that 1) the large-scale ionized gas structures show a tendency to be oriented at large angles from the radio axis, and 2) the gas on a scale of a few kpc from the nucleus often shows ordered rotation with a kinematical axis forming a median angle of 65 degrees with the radio axis. We also discuss the velocity field and ionization properties of the EELRs. The observed emission line structures appear to be associated with gaseous "superdisks" formed after a gas rich merger. The different properties of the EELR can be explained with a combination of the source evolutionary state and the orientation of the "superdisk" with respect to the radio axis. The general alignment between the superdisks and radio axis might be produced by stable and coherent accretion maintained over long timescales.
