High Resolution HI Distributions and Multi-Wavelength Analyses Of
High Resolution H I Distributions and Multi-Wavelength Analyses of Magellanic Spirals NGC 4618 and NGC 4625 Jane F. Kaczmarek1& Eric M. Wilcots University of Wisconsin Madison, Department of Astronomy, 475 N. Charter Street, Madison WI 53706 USA [email protected], [email protected] ABSTRACT We present a detailed analysis of high resolution H I observations of the Magellanic spiral galaxies NGC 4618 and NGC 4625. While the H I disk of NGC 4625 is remarkably quiescent with a nearly uniform velocity dispersion and no evidence of H I holes, there is a dynamic interplay between star formation and the distribution of neutral hydrogen in NGC 4618. We calculate the critical density for widespread star formation in each galaxy and find that star formation proceeds even where the surface density of the atomic gas is well below the critical density necessary for global star formation. There are strong spatial correlations in NGC 4618 between UV emission, 1.4 GHz radio continuum emission, and peaks in the H I column density. Despite the apparent overlap of the outer disks of the two galaxies, we find that they are kinematically distinct, indicating that NGC 4618 and NGC 4625 are not interacting. The structure of NGC 4618 and, in particular, the nature of its outer ring, are highly suggestive of an interaction, but the timing and nature of such an interaction remain unclear.

DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/201732271 vii Abstract In hierarchical models of galaxy formation, stellar tidal streams are expected around most galaxies. Although these features may provide useful diagnostics of the LCDM model, their observational properties remain poorly constrained. Statistical analysis of the counts and properties of such features is of interest for a direct comparison against results from numeri- cal simulations. In this work, we aim to study systematically the frequency of occurrence and other observational properties of tidal features around nearby galaxies. -

TAKAMIYA1,2 Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics, University of Chicago, Chicago, IL 60637; and Gemini 8 m Telescopes Project, 670 North Aohoku Place, Hilo, HI 96720 Received 1998 August 4; accepted 1998 December 21 ABSTRACT The evolution of the structure of galaxies as a function of redshift is investigated using two param- eters: the metric radius of the galaxy(Rg) and the power at high spatial frequencies in the disk of the galaxy (s). A direct comparison is made between nearby (z D 0) and distant(0.2 [ z [ 1) galaxies by following a Ðxed range in rest frame wavelengths. The data of the nearby galaxies comprise 136 broad- band images at D4500A observed with the 0.9 m telescope at Kitt Peak National Observatory (23 galaxies) and selected from the catalog of digital images of Frei et al. (113 galaxies). The high-redshift sample comprises 94 galaxies selected from the Hubble Deep Field (HDF) observations with the Hubble Space Telescope using the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 in four broad bands that range between D3000 and D9000A (Williams et al.). The radius is measured from the intensity proÐle of the galaxy using the formulation of Petrosian, and it is argued to be a metric radius that should not depend very strongly on the angular resolution and limiting surface brightness level of the imaging data. It is found that the metric radii of nearby and distant galaxies are comparable to each other. -

Postal 70 264, C.P. 04510, Mexico City, Mexico e-mail: [email protected] Received 21 June 2001 / Accepted 21 November 2002 Abstract. The nature of a possible correlation between metallicity and luminosity for dwarf irregular galaxies, including those with the highest luminosities, has been explored using simple chemical evolutionary models. Our models depend on a set of free parameters in order to include infall and outflows of gas and covering a broad variety of physical situations. Given a fixed set of parameters, a non-linear correlation between the oxygen abundance and the luminosity may be established. This would be the case if an effective self–regulating mechanism between the accretion of mass and the wind energized by the star formation could lead to the same parameters for all the dwarf irregular galaxies. In the case that these parameters were distributed in a random manner from galaxy to galaxy, a significant scatter in the metallicity–luminosity diagram is expected. Comparing with observations, we show that only variations of the stellar mass–to–light ratio are sufficient to explain the observed scattering and, therefore, the action of a mechanism of self–regulation cannot be ruled out. -

Física Teórica y del Cosmos, Universidad de Granada, Spain 4 Space Telescope Science Institute, Baltimore, USA Received 18 October 2003 / Accepted 29 November 2004 Abstract. We present integral field spectroscopy of NGC 5033, a low luminosity Seyfert galaxy. The observations were made with INTEGRAL, a fiber based system operating at the WHT. The intensity map of the Hβ emission line represents a spi- ral or ring-like pattern of HII regions. On the contrary, the [OIII] intensity map morphology is markedly anisotropic. The strong morphological differences imply that the [OIII] emitters represent highly ionized gas illuminated by the central source. The [OIII] map morphology is compatible with a biconical structure of ionization induced by strong extinction in the galaxy disc that also obscures half of the spheroidal stellar bulge. We identify the spectrum corresponding to the Seyfert 1 nucleus from the presence of Hβ broad emission lines. This spectrum is located in a region where strong extinction is expected but exhibits the bluest spectral energy distribution. The Seyfert 1 nucleus seems to be offcenter with respect to the stellar rotation center. This result has been also found in other Seyfert galaxies and interpreted in terms of a past merger. -

Barth,5 Alexei V. Filippenko,6 Luis C. Ho,7 Daniel H. McIntosh,8 Gregory Rudnick,9,10 and Wallace L. W. Sargent11 Received 2004 August 14; accepted 2006 September 8 ABSTRACT We present results from a program of optical spectroscopy for 23 nearby galaxies with emission-line nuclei. This investigation takes advantage of the spatial resolution of the Hubble Space Telescope to study the structure and energetics of the central 10Y20 pc, and the resulting data have value for quantifying central black hole masses, star formation histories, and nebular properties. This paper provides a description of the experimental design, and new findings from the study of emission lines. The sample targets span a range of nebular spectroscopic class, from H ii to Seyfert nuclei. This data set and the resulting measurements are unique in terms of the sample size, the range of nebular class, and the investigation of physical scales extending down to parsecs. The line ratios indicative of nebular ionization show only modest variations over order-of-magnitude differences in radius, and demonstrate in a sys- tematic way that geometrical dilution of the radiation field from a central source cannot be assumed as a primary driver of ionization structure. Comparisons between large- and small-aperture measurements for the H ii/LINER tran- sition objects provide a new test that challenges conventional wisdom concerning the composite nature of these systems. -

Tennant2, and Roberto Soria3 Submitted to Astrophysical Journal ABSTRACT Maps of low-inclination nearby galaxies in Sloan Digitized Sky Survey u − g, g − r and r − i colors are used to determine whether Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are predominantly associated with star-forming regions of their host galaxies. An empirical selection criterion is derived from colors of H ii regions in M 81 and M 101 that differentiates between the young, blue stellar component and the older disk and bulge population. This criterion is applied to a sample of 58 galaxies of Hubble type S0 and later and verified through an application of Fisher’s linear discriminant analysis. It is found that 60% (49%) of ULXs in optically-bright environments are within regions blueward of their host galaxy’s H ii regions compared to only 27% (0%) of a control sample according to the empirical (Fisher) criterion. This is an excess of 3σ above the 32% (27%) expected if the ULXs were randomly distributed within their galactic hosts. This indicates a ULX preference for young, ∼<10 Myr, OB associations. However, none of the ULX environments have the morphology and optical brightness suggestive of a massive young super star cluster though several are in extended or crowded star-forming (blue) environments that may contain clusters unresolved by Sloan imaging. Ten of the 12 ULX candidates with estimated X-ray luminosities in excess of 3×1039 ergs s−1 are equally divided among the group of ULX environments redward of H ii regions and the group of optically faint regions. -
