AI总结:

本文通过构建1769个类星体样本并利用远红外光度估计恒星形成率,发现有无Mg II关联吸收线的类星体恒星形成率分布统计上不可区分,表明二者无需演化联系,取向效应可能起关键作用。

摘要:

一些光学选类星体表现出 Mg II 关联吸收线(AALs),其起源仍不清楚。本文中,我们构建了一个包含 1769 个类星体的样本,其中有或没有 Mg II AALs。其中 1689 个是远红外(FIR)探测到的类星体,其余的在远红外波段未被探测到。对于远红外未探测到的类星体,我们分别对有和没有 Mg II AAL 的类星体进行了叠加。然后,我们基于由远红外灰体成分导出的远红外光度,估计类星体宿主星系内的恒星形成率(SFRs),并发现,尽管具有 Mg II AALs 的类星体其中值复合光谱显著红于没有 Mg II AALs 的类星体,但两类类星体的恒星形成率分布在统计上不可区分。这些结果不要求有和没有 Mg II AALs 的类星体之间存在演化联系,并且如果取向效应在宿主不同类型吸收线的类星体中不可忽略,则这些结果可以得到协调。

英文摘要:

Some optically selected quasars exhibit Mg II assoicated absorption lines (AALs), and its origin remains unclear. In this paper, we compile a sample of 1769 quasars, with or without Mg II AALs. Of which 1689 are Far-Infrared (FIR) detected quasars and the rest are not detected in FIR. For the FIR undetected quasars, we obtain stacks for both with and without Mg II AAL quasars. Then we estimate the star formation rates (SFRs) within quasar host galaxies based on their FIR luminosities derived from their FIR greybody components, and find that, although quasars with Mg II AALs have significantly redder median composite spectra than those without Mg II AALs, the SFR distributions of the two types of quasars are statistically indistinguishable. These results do not require an evolutionary link between the quasars with and without Mg II AALs, and would be reconciled if an orientation effect cannot be ignored among the quasars hosting different types of absorption lines.
