近星系团先导样品中亚千秒差距尺度的磁场、恒星形成率和气体密度

Magnetic Fields, Star Formation Rates and Gas Densities at Sub-kpc Scales in a Pilot Sample of Nearby Galaxies

Souvik Manna, Subhashis Roy

摘要:

我们估计了一个样本的七个星系的磁场强度,使用他们的非热同步辐射在米波长,并假设能量均分之间的磁场和宇宙射线粒子。空间分辨的恒星形成率(SFR)估计的7个星系以及5个星系以前研究。对于12个星系的组合样本,均分磁场(B $_\textrm{eq}$)与SFR表面密度($Σ_\textrm{SFR}$)在sub-kpc尺度与B $_\textrm{eq}$ $\propto$ $Σ_\textrm{SFR}^ {0.31\pm0.06}$,与模型预测一致。我们估计气体密度($ρ_\textrm{gas}$)的一个子样本的7个星系使用档案观测的一氧化碳(CO)的旋转跃迁和氢原子(HI)的21厘米线,并研究了空间分辨的磁场和$ρ_\textrm{gas}$之间的相关性。磁场和气体密度在亚千秒差距尺度下的关联式为B $_\textrm{eq}$ $\propto$ $ρ_\textrm{gas}^{0.40\pm0.09}$。这与通常预测B $\propto$ $ρ_\textrm{gas}^{0.5}$的模型大致一致。

英文摘要:

We have estimated the magnetic field strengths of a sample of seven galaxies using their non-thermal synchrotron radio emission at metre wavelengths, and assuming energy equipartition between magnetic fields and cosmic ray particles. Spatially resolved star formation rates (SFR) were estimated for the seven galaxies along with five galaxies studied previously. For the combined sample of twelve galaxies, the equipartition magnetic fields (B$_\textrm{eq}$) are correlated with the SFR surface densities ($Σ_\textrm{SFR}$) at sub-kpc scales with B$_\textrm{eq}$ $\propto$ $Σ_\textrm{SFR}^ {0.31\pm0.06}$, consistent with model predictions. We estimated gas densities ($ρ_\textrm{gas}$) for a sub-sample of seven galaxies using archival observations of the carbon monoxide (CO) rotational transitions and the atomic hydrogen (HI) 21 cm line and studied the spatially-resolved correlation between the magnetic fields and $ρ_\textrm{gas}$. Magnetic fields and gas densities are found to be correlated at sub-kpc scale as B$_\textrm{eq}$ $\propto$ $ρ_\textrm{gas}^{0.40\pm0.09}$. This is broadly consistent with models, which typically predict B $\propto$ $ρ_\textrm{gas}^{0.5}$.
