侧向星系的氮与硫发射线比研究
The Study of Nitrogen and Sulfur Emission Line Ratios in Edge-on Galaxies
摘要
Abstract
Accretion and feedback constitute the material cycle between galaxies and their environment,and metal-licity is closely related to this cycling process.By utilizing a sample of 608 edge-on galaxies obtained from the MaNGA integral field survey,we examine the nitrogen and sulfur emission line ratios,as well as the distribution of metallicity.The study shows that the MaNGA edge-on galaxy sample and SDSS galaxies exhibit similar bimodal distributions on the N2S2 diagram,with the MaNGA edge-on galaxies slightly shifted towards the upper left.Ad-ditionally,the[N II]/[S II]ratio is generally higher at the centers of most galaxies compared to their outer regions,with four galaxies centers displaying a conical structure of nitrogen enrichment.Lastly,the spatial distribution of metallicity in edge-on galaxies measured by different methods is generally consistent,with only a few galaxies show-ing higher oxygen abundance in their outer regions compared to their centers,which may be related to the selection criteria for the R23"double branch"method and requires further optimization.关键词
