The Gas Content in Galactic Disks: Correlation with Kinematics
We consider the relationship between the total HI mass in late-type galaxies and the kinematic properties of their disks. The mass MHI for galaxies with a wide variety of properties, from dwarf dIrr galaxies with active star formation to giant low-brightness galaxies, is shown to correlate with the product VcR0 (Vc is the rotational velocity, and R0 is the radial photometric disks scale length)...
متن کاملTurbulent viscosity in clumpy accretion disks Application to the Galaxy
The equilibrium state of a turbulent clumpy gas disk is analytically investigated. The disk consists of distinct self-gravitating clouds. Gravitational cloud–cloud interactions transfer energy over spatial scales and produce a viscosity, which allows mass accretion in the gas disk. Turbulence is assumed to be generated by instabilities involving self-gravitation and to be maintained by the ener...
متن کاملTHE PROPERTIES OF THE STAR-FORMING INTERSTELLAR MEDIUM AT z=0.8–2.2 FROM HIZELS: STAR-FORMATION AND CLUMP SCALING LAWS IN GAS RICH, TURBULENT DISKS
We present adaptive optics assisted integral field spectroscopy of nine Hα-selected galaxies at z=0.84–2.23 drawn from the HiZELS narrow-band survey. Our observations map the kinematics of these star-forming galaxies on ∼ kpc-scales. We demonstrate that within the ISM of these galaxies, the velocity dispersion of the star-forming gas (σ) follows a scaling relation σ ∝ Σ SFR + constant (where ΣS...
متن کاملKinematics of gas and stars in circumnuclear star-forming regions of early type spirals
We present high resolution (R 20000) spectra in the blue and the far red of cicumnuclear star-forming regions (CNSFRs) in three early type spirals (NGC3351, NGC2903 and NGC3310) which have allowed the study of the kinematics of stars and ionized gas in these structures and, for the first time, the derivation of their dynamical masses for the first two. In some cases these regions, about 100 to ...
متن کاملGas metallicity diagnostics in star-forming galaxies
Generally the gas metallicity in distant galaxies can only be inferred by using a few prominent emission lines. Various theoretical models have been used to predict the relationship between emission line fluxes and metallicity, suggesting that some line ratios can be used as diagnostics of the gas metallicity in galaxies. However, accurate empirical calibrations of these emission line flux rati...
