以Kang等的星系形成的半解析模型为基础,研究星系和中心大质量黑洞的共同形成和演化.假设类星体的活动性由星系并合引起,通过引入黑洞吸积率,确定了红移区间0z4.5的类星体的热光度函数,并分别从爱丁顿比率、黑洞质量函数和两点相关函数3个方面对模型进行限制,模型预言的光度函数能在整个红移、整个光度范围内与观测相符合.结果显示,常数爱丁顿比率不能很好地描述黑洞吸积,爱丁顿比率需要在一定红移范围内随红移增加;星系主并合是触发类星体活动性的有效机制,而次并合只对低光度和中等光度的类星体有影响,对高光度类星体影响很小;在z=1.0处,极高光度的类星休比其他类星体具有更强的成团性. 相似文献

基于半解析模型和SDSS DR4(Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 4),研究了环境对星系性质的影响.通过对以颜色、恒星形成率和恒星质量的带权重的相关函数的测量,发现半解析模型在颜色和恒星质量上与SDSS数据符合得比较好,而恒星形成率则在SDSS数据中表现为与环境无关.此结论证实了半解析模型对星系中部分性质与环境关系的预测,但对于恒星形成率为何与环境无关仍有待研究. 相似文献

极红天体(EROs)是指利用光学和近红外两个波段的色指数(如I-K4 mag)挑选出来的一类星系。研究表明极红天体可分为两类:一类是被大量尘埃红化的高红移恒星形成星系,主要是较年轻的旋涡或不规则星系,有恒星正在形成,称为DGs;另一类是由年老星族(≥1 Ga)主导的高红移椭圆星系,基本上没有或仅有弱的恒星形成,简称为OGs。极红天体中这两种不同类型的星系,很可能是近邻大质量星系的前身星系,只是分别代表着不同的形成历史。介绍了不同类型极红天体的各种物理性质的研究进展,如形态和结构、光谱特征、成团性、红移分布和星系计数等,以及阐述了该领域未来的研究方向。 相似文献

从观测上测定早型星系中恒星形成活动随红移的演化有助于理解这类星系的形成演化.结合GEMS（Galaxy Evolution from Morphology and SEDs）巡天的HST/ACS（Hubble Space Telescope/Advanced Camera for Surveys）高分辨图像和CDFS（ChandraDeep Field South）天区Spitzer、GALEX（Galaxy Evolution Explorer）等多波段数据,基于形态、颜色和恒星质量选出一个0.2≤z≤1.0红移范围的包含456个早型星系的完备样本.利用stacking技术测量了样本星系紫外与红外平均光度,估计早型星系的恒星形成率.结果显示,早型星系中的恒星形成率较低(<3 M⊙·yr-1),随红移递减而降低.在红移z=1以来的恒星形成贡献的质量小于15%.星族分析亦肯定大质量早型星系的主体星族形成于宇宙早期（z>2）. 相似文献

基于COSMOS(Cosmic Evolution Survey)/Ultra VISTA(Ultra-deep Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy)场中多波段测光数据,利用质量限选取了红移分布在0z3.5的星系样本.通过UVJ(U-V和V-J)双色图分类判据将星系分类成恒星形成星系(SFGs)和宁静星系(QGs).对于红移分布在0z1.5范围内且M*1011M⊙的QGs来说,该星系在样本中所占比例高于70%.在红移0z3.5范围内,恒星形成星系的恒星形成率(SFR)与恒星质量(M*)之间有着很强的主序(MS)关系.对于某一固定的恒星质量M*来说,星系的SFR和比恒星形成率(s SFR)会随着红移增大而增大,这表明在高红移处恒星形成星系更加活跃,有激烈的恒星形成.相对于低质量的星系来说,高质量的SFGs有较低的s SFR,这意味着低质量星系的增长更多的是通过星系本身的恒星形成.通过结合来自文献中数据点信息,发现更高红移(2z8)星系的s SFR随红移的演化趋势变弱,其演化关系是s SFR∝(1+z)0.94±0.17. 相似文献

阻尼莱曼α吸收线系统(DLAs)是中性氢柱密度超过2×10~(20) cm~(-2)的类星体吸收线系统。按照现有的观点,DLAs是高红移环境中星系及恒星形成的中性气体库,它们很可能是现今星系的前身。近20年来随着DLAs巡天观测的迅猛发展,尤其是SDSS巡天观测数据的释放,DLAs统计样本达到千计的量级,大大推动了DLAs的观测和研究。由于受到观测的某些限制,样本还有偏,尤其是缺少低红移DLAs,但是,通过大样本DLAs系统的研究,已经获得了有关宇宙中性气体演化的许多信息,如DLAs的数密度在高红移处(z1.5)是有演化的,但在低红移处基本不演化,从而确认了今天的星系形成于较高红移处。研究也发现DLAs对宇宙质量密度的贡献随红移的演化减弱,DLAs的中性氢气体柱密度分布函数与本地星系的中性氢柱密度分布函数十分相似等一些有趣的结论。着重介绍DLAs的基本知识以及20年来巡天的有关进展,包括DLAs的观测证认、统计特性等,并指出目前DLAs样本不完备的主要原因。 相似文献

Abell 85 is a cD galaxy cluster in the southern hemisphere and has a redshift of 0.055. Based on the spectra of 242 member galaxies provided by the Sloan spectral survey data, using the stellar population constituents and star formation history of these member galaxies obtained from the population synthesis software STARLIGHT, we study the regularities of the variations of star formation properties of galaxies (such as the ages, metal abundances and star formation rates of the characteristic stellar populations) with the local surface density of galaxies. As revealed by the results, the galaxies situated in the highdensity environments of the central region of the cluster possess higher population ages and metal abundances, and their rates of star formation are rather low, the recent activities of star formation are obviously suppressed. Besides, the correlations of the galaxy metal abundance and speci?c star formation rate with the stellar mass are asserted. 相似文献

The galaxy populations in present-day clusters are distinctly different from those of the field, indicating that environment
plays a strong role in galaxy evolution. This review discusses some of the recent observations of moderate to high redshift
clusters. A consistent picture of galaxy evolution in clusters appears to be emerging, which includes a population of galaxies
which formed early in the cluster history, as well as field galaxies which have had their star formation truncated upon falling
into the cluster potential. Galaxy interactions probably play an important role in exhausting star formation in some of these
galaxies. However, there is significant variation in the populations of different cluster samples, with substantial evidence
that some galaxies have their star formation terminated more gradually. This suggests that different mechanisms may dominate
in different clusters, perhaps because of the recent merging history of the clusters. We also present a recent analysis of
population gradients in clusters which suggests that the observed evolution in cluster populations is consistent with a scenario
where changing infall rates drive the fraction of star forming galaxies in clusters, rather than a changing physical mechanism
within the cluster. Thus, galaxy populations may provide a fundamental measure of the growth of large scale structure.

We have performed TreeSPH simulations of galaxy formation in a standard ΛCDM cosmology, including effects of star formation,
energetic stellar feedback processes and a meta-galactic UV field, and obtain a mix of disk, lenticular and elliptical galaxies.
The disk galaxies are deficient in angular momentum by only about a factor of two compared to observed disk galaxies. The
stellar disks have approximately exponential surface density profiles, and those of the bulges range from exponential to r
1/4, as observed. The bulge-to-disk ratios of the disk galaxies are consistent with observations and likewise are their integrated
B-V colours, which have been calculated using stellar population synthesis techniques. Furthermore, we can match the observed
I-band Tully-Fisher (TF) relation, provided that the mass-to-light ratio of disk galaxies is (M/L
I) ≃ 0.6–0.7. The ellipticals and lenticulars have approximately r
1/4 stellar surface density profiles, are dominated by non-disklike kinematics and flattened due to non-isotropic stellar velocity
distributions, again consistent with observations.

According to the new preheating mechanism of galaxy formation suggested by Mo et al., we construct a simple model of formation of disk galaxies within the current paradigm of galaxy formation. It incorporates preheating, gas cooling, bulge formation and star for-mation. The predicted stellar and HI mass functions of galaxies are discussed and compared with the observations. It is found that our model can roughly match both the observed galaxy luminosity function and the observed HI-mass function. 相似文献

Void regions of the Universe offer a special environment for studying cosmology and galaxy formation, which may expose weaknesses in our understanding of these phenomena. Although galaxies in voids are observed to be predominately gas rich, star forming and blue, a subpopulation of bright-red void galaxies can also be found, whose star formation was shutdown long ago. Are the same processes that quench star formation in denser regions of the Universe also at work in voids?
We compare the luminosity function of void galaxies in the 2dF Galaxy Redshift Survey, to those from a galaxy formation model built on the Millennium simulation. We show that a global star formation suppression mechanism in the form of low-luminosity 'radio-mode' active galactic nuclei (AGN) heating is sufficient to reproduce the observed population of void early types. Radio-mode heating is environment independent other than its dependence on dark matter halo mass, where, above a critical mass threshold of approximately Mvir ∼ 1012.5 M⊙ , gas cooling on to the galaxy is suppressed and star formation subsequently fades. In the Millennium simulation, the void halo mass function is shifted with respect to denser environments, but still maintains a high-mass tail above this critical threshold. In such void haloes, radio-mode heating remains efficient and red galaxies are found; collectively these galaxies match the observed space density without any modification to the model. Consequently, galaxies living in vastly different large-scale environments but hosted by haloes of similar mass are predicted to have similar properties, consistent with observations. 相似文献

We explore the prospects of predicting emission-line features present in galaxy spectra given broad-band photometry alone. There is a general consent that colours, and spectral features, most notably the 4000 Å break, can predict many properties of galaxies, including star formation rates and hence they could infer some of the line properties. We argue that these techniques have great prospects in helping us understand line emission in extragalactic objects and might speed up future galaxy redshift surveys if they are to target emission-line objects only. We use two independent methods, Artificial Neural Networks (based on the ANNz code) and Locally Weighted Regression (LWR), to retrieve correlations present in the colour N -dimensional space and to predict the equivalent widths present in the corresponding spectra. We also investigate how well it is possible to separate galaxies with and without lines from broad-band photometry only. We find, unsurprisingly, that recombination lines can be well predicted by galaxy colours. However, among collisional lines some can and some cannot be predicted well from galaxy colours alone, without any further redshift information. We also use our techniques to estimate how much information contained in spectral diagnostic diagrams can be recovered from broad-band photometry alone. We find that it is possible to classify active galactic nuclei and star formation objects relatively well using colours only. We suggest that this technique could be used to considerably improve redshift surveys such as the upcoming Fibre Multi Object Spectrograph (FMOS) survey and the planned Wide Field Multi Object Spectrograph (WFMOS) survey. 相似文献

Through the morphological classifications for 290 member galaxies in the nearby galaxy Abell 2199, the star formation rates and their relations with their morphology and related physical properties are investigated in this paper. It is found that the typical star formation rate in galaxies of this galaxy cluster is strongly correlated with the Hα equivalent width, and the degree of discontinuity of the galaxy spectrum at 4000 Å is also strongly correlated with the stellar mass included in the galaxy. It is also found that star formation activities in these galaxies do not exhibit the obvious circumstance effect. This result indicates that this galaxy cluster is still situated at the stage of the violent dynamical evolution and far from the dynamical equilibrium. 相似文献

Between gas dynamics and structure of galaxies is a two-way relation. On one hand, gas dynamics in a galaxy is largely determined
by the structure of the galaxy, and on the other hand, gas dynamics can gradually alter the galaxy structure through redistribution
of mass and angular momentum within the galaxy. The first half of this relation should mostly determine gas distribution and
regulate star formation in undisturbed spirals, and the second half has been suggested to cause secular evolution of spiral
galaxies—a slow mode of galaxy evolution in the absence of major mergers. Our knowledge on this relation is going to be greatly
deepened by the ALMA. Focusing on the galaxy evolution through gas dynamics, I briefly review what we know about the subject.
Then I try to look out what the ALMA can do to answer open questions in the field. It is pointed out that the ALMA will be
able to fully map all the spiral galaxies between 1 and 25 Mpc at 1″ resolution in 1000 hours. 相似文献
