利用中分辨率($R\sim11,000$)麦哲伦/IMACS光谱对天鹤座I超暗矮星系(UFD)进行了化学动力学研究。我们确定了八个确认成员的鹤座我,根据其低金属丰度和相干径向速度,和四个候选成员,只有速度的推导。与以前的工作相比,我们发现天鹤座I具有非常低的平均金属丰度$\langle$ [Fe/H] $\rangle = -2.62 \pm 0.11$ dex,使其成为最贫金属的UFD之一。天鹤座I的系统径向速度为$-143.5\pm1.2$ km s $^{-1}$,速度色散为$σ_{\text{rv}} = 2.5^{+1.3}_{-0.8}$ km s $^{-1}$,这导致动力学质量为$M_{1/2} (r_h) = 8^{+12}_{-4} \times 10^5$ M $_{\odot}$,质光比为M/L $_V$ = $440^{+650}_{-250}$ M $_\odot$ /L $_\odot$。在动力学平衡的假设下,我们的分析证实了天鹤座I是一个暗物质主导的UFD(M/L $> 80$ M $_\odot$ /L $_\odot$)。然而,我们不解决金属分散($σ_{\text{[Fe/H]}} < 0.44$ dex)。我们的研究结果表明,天鹤座I是一个相当典型的UFD的参数,同意质量金属丰度和金属丰度光度的趋势,微弱的星系。这一一致性表明,天鹤座I并没有因为与银河系的潮汐相遇而失去特别显著的质量,这与它的轨道参数一致。有趣的是,在未知是否会扰乱潮汐的UFD中,鹤一号的中心密度($ρ_{1/2} \sim 3.5_{-2.1}^{+5.7} \times 10^7$ M $_\odot$ kpc $^{-3}$)是最低的。UFD形成和演化的模型需要解释这些中心密度的多样性,以及这些遗迹星系外部区域的多样性。
英文摘要:
We present a chemodynamical study of the Grus I ultra-faint dwarf galaxy (UFD) from medium-resolution ($R\sim11,000$) Magellan/IMACS spectra of its individual member stars. We identify eight confirmed members of Grus I, based on their low metallicities and coherent radial velocities, and four candidate members for which only velocities are derived. In contrast to previous work, we find that Grus I has a very low mean metallicity of $\langle$[Fe/H]$\rangle = -2.62 \pm 0.11$ dex, making it one of the most metal-poor UFDs. Grus I has a systemic radial velocity of $-143.5\pm1.2$ km s$^{-1}$ and a velocity dispersion of $σ_{\text{rv}} = 2.5^{+1.3}_{-0.8}$ km s$^{-1}$ which results in a dynamical mass of $M_{1/2} (r_h) = 8^{+12}_{-4} \times 10^5$ M$_{\odot}$ and a mass-to-light ratio of M/L$_V$ = $440^{+650}_{-250}$ M$_\odot$/L$_\odot$. Under the assumption of dynamical equilibrium, our analysis confirms that Grus I is a dark-matter-dominated UFD (M/L $> 80$ M$_\odot$/L$_\odot$). However, we do not resolve a metallicity dispersion ($σ_{\text{[Fe/H]}} < 0.44$ dex). Our results indicate that Grus I is a fairly typical UFD with parameters that agree with mass-metallicity and metallicity-luminosity trends for faint galaxies. This agreement suggests that Grus I has not lost an especially significant amount of mass from tidal encounters with the Milky Way, in line with its orbital parameters. Intriguingly, Grus I has among the lowest central density ($ρ_{1/2} \sim 3.5_{-2.1}^{+5.7} \times 10^7$ M$_\odot$ kpc$^{-3}$) of the UFDs that are not known to be tidally disrupting. Models of the formation and evolution of UFDs will need to explain the diversity of these central densities, in addition to any diversity in the outer regions of these relic galaxies.
