Dust obscuration of DLA galaxies
We show that the extinction of quasar absorbers increases exponentially with the logarithmic column density of any volatile metal (e.g. zinc), with a charateristic turning point above which the quasars are severely dimmed. We derive the relation between extinction, HI column density (NHI), metallicity (Z ≡ NZnII/NHI) and fraction of iron in dust [fFe(Z)] in Damped Lyman α (DLA) systems. We use ...
متن کاملCosmological Obscuration by Galactic Dust: Effects of Dust Evolution
We explore the effects of dust in cosmologically distributed intervening galaxies on the high redshift universe using a generalised model where dust content evolves with cosmic time. The absorbing galaxies are modelled as exponential disks which form coevally, maintain a constant space density and evolve in dust content at a rate that is uniform throughout. We find that the inclusion of moderat...
متن کاملIntergalactic dust extinction in hydrodynamic cosmological simulations
Recently Ménard et al. (hereafter MSFR) detected a subtle but systematic change in the mean color of quasars as a function of their projected separation from foreground galaxies, extending to comoving separations of ∼ 10h−1Mpc, which they interpret as a signature of reddening by intergalactic dust. We present theoretical models of this remarkable observation, using smoothed particle hydrodynami...
متن کاملDependence of Dust Obscuration on Star Formation Rates in Galaxies
Many investigations of star formation rates (SFRs) in galaxies have explored details of dust obscuration, with a number of recent analyses suggesting that obscuration appears to increase in systems with high rates of star formation. To date these analyses have been primarily based on nearby (z ≤ 0.03) or UV selected samples. Using 1.4GHz imaging and optical spectroscopic data from the Phoenix D...
متن کاملDust obscuration studies along quasar sight lines using simulated galaxies
We use the results of a set of three–dimensional SPH–Treecode simulations which model the formation and early evolution of disk galaxies, including the generation of heavy elements by star formation, to investigate the effects of dust absorption in quasar absorption line systems. Using a simple prescription for the production of dust, we have compared the column density, zinc abundance and opti...
