论文摘要
这项工作利用斯隆数字天空调查中星系的多尺度环境和结构,作为一致检查从星爆到静止的一致性,以红移$ z <0.2 $。 The environmental indicators include fixed aperture mass overdensities ($δ_{x\mathrm{Mpc}}$, $x \in \{0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8\}\,h^{-1}$Mpc), $k$-nearest neighbor distances, the tidal parameter, halo mass ($M_h$), and satellite/central classification.特定恒星形成率的残差($δ\,\ mathrm {ssfr} $)用于选择starbursts($δ\,\ m athrm {ssfr}> 0.6 \,$ dex,$ n \ $ n \ y \ 8,\ 8,\,600 $)。使用H $α<3 \,$ h $Δ_A> 4 \,$ angstrom吸收($ n \ of $ n \ 750 $),选择了淬火后的季后赛(QPSB)。将Starburst和QPSB的环境与活跃的银河核(AGN)和不同$δ\,\ Mathrm {Ssfr} $的非活性星系进行了比较。 Starburst,AGN和QPSB的环境与大多数静态星系(QGS)的环境不同。大约$ 70 \%-90 \%$ $的starbursts,带有H $Δ_A> 4 $的Agns和QPSB是中心的,$ \ sim 80 \%-90 \%$具有$ m_h <10^{13} {13} {13}} {13} {13}} 10^{14} \,m_ \ odot $或在集群中活。他们的$ M_H $和卫星分数也与QGS不同。所有QPSB都与类似$ M_ \ Star $,环境,浓度指数和速度分散的一些SFG,Starburst,AGN和QGS匹配。 Starbursts的大量分数($ \ sim 20 \%-30 \%$)不能与QPSB或QGS匹配。含义是:(1)某些星光爆炸不会迅速淬火。 (2)在高密度环境中运行的卫星淬灭机制无法解释大多数QPSB。 (3)从星爆,QPSB到QGS的演变不是$ z <0.2 $的主要路径。 (4)Starburst并非主要是由潮汐相互作用触发的。
This work uses multiscale environments and structures of galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey as consistency checks of the evolution from starburst to quiescence at redshift $z < 0.2$. The environmental indicators include fixed aperture mass overdensities ($δ_{x\mathrm{Mpc}}$, $x \in \{0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8\}\,h^{-1}$Mpc), $k$-nearest neighbor distances, the tidal parameter, halo mass ($M_h$), and satellite/central classification. The residuals of specific star formation rates ($Δ\,\mathrm{SSFR}$) is used to select starbursts ($Δ\,\mathrm{SSFR} > 0.6\,$dex, $N \approx 8,\,600$). Quenched post-starbursts (QPSBs) are selected using H$α< 3\,$angstrom in emission and H$δ_A > 4\,$ angstrom in absorption ($N \approx 750$). The environments of starbursts and QPSBs are compared with those of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and inactive galaxies of varying $Δ\,\mathrm{SSFR}$. The environments of starbursts, AGNs, and QPSBs are unlike the environments of most quiescent galaxies (QGs). About $70\%-90\%$ of starbursts, AGNs with H$δ_A > 4$, and QPSBs are centrals, $\sim 80\%-90\%$ have $M_h < 10^{13}\,M_\odot$, and only $\sim 2\%-4\%$ have $M_h > 10^{14}\,M_\odot$ or live in clusters. Their $M_h$ and satellite fractions are also different from those of QGs. All QPSBs are matched to some SFGs, starbursts, AGNs, and QGs of similar $M_\star$, environments, concentration indices, and velocity dispersions. A significant fraction ($\sim 20\%-30\%$) of starbursts cannot be matched to QPSBs or QGs. The implications are: (1) some starbursts do not quench rapidly. (2) Satellite-quenching mechanisms operating in high density environments cannot account for most QPSBs. (3) The evolution from starbursts to QPSBs to QGs is not the dominant path at $z < 0.2$. (4) Starbursts are not mainly triggered by tidal interactions.
