Was Star–formation Suppressed in High-redshift Minihalos?
The primordial gas in the earliest dark matter halos, collapsing at redshifts z ∼ 20, with masses Mhalo ∼ 106 M⊙, and virial temperatures Tvir < 104K, relied on the presence of molecules for cooling. Several theoretical studies have suggested that gas contraction and star–formation in these minihalos was suppressed by radiative, chemical, thermal, and dynamical feedback processes. The recent me...
متن کاملSuppressed Star Formation in Circumnuclear Regions in Seyfert Galaxies
Feedback from black hole activity is widely believed to play a key role in regulating star formation and black hole growth. A long-standing issue is the relation between the star formation and fueling the supermassive black holes in active galactic nuclei (AGNs). We compile a sample of 57 Seyfert galaxies to tackle this issue. We estimate the surface densities of gas and star formation rates in...
متن کاملDwarf Galaxy Formation Was Suppressed By Cosmic Reionization
A large number of faint galaxies, born less than a billion years after the big bang, have recently been discovered . The fluctuations in the distribution of these galaxies contributed to a scatter in the ionization fraction of cosmic hydrogen on scales of tens of Mpc, as observed along the lines of sight to the earliest known quasars . Theoretical simulations predict that the formation of dwarf...
متن کامل[o Ii] Emission in Quasar Host Galaxies: Evidence for a Suppressed Star Formation Efficiency
The [O II] λ3727 line, a commonly used estimator of star formation rate in extragalactic surveys, should be an equally effective tracer of star formation in the host galaxies of quasars, whose narrow-line regions are expected to produce weak low-ionization emission. Quasar spectra generally show little or no [O II] emission beyond that expected from the active nucleus itself. The inferred star ...
متن کاملStar Formation Efficiencies and Star Cluster Formation
Starbursts produce large numbers of Young Star Clusters (YSCs). Multi-color photometry in combination with a dedicated SED analysis tool allows to derive ages, metallicities, EB−V, and masses including 1σ uncertainties for individual clusters and, hence, mass functions for YSC systems. The mass function, known to be Gaussian for old Globular Cluster (GC) systems, is still controversial for YSC ...
