Completing H I observations of galaxies II . The Coma Supercluster

چکیده

High sensitivity 21-cm H i line observations, with an rms noise level of ∼ 0.5 mJy, were made of 35 spiral galaxies in the Coma Supercluster, using the refurbished Arecibo telescope, which resulted in the detection of 25 objects. These data, combined with the measurements available from the literature, provide the set of H i data for 94 % of all late-type galaxies in the Coma Supercluster with an apparent photographic magnitude mp ≤ 15.7 mag. We confirm that the typical scale of H i deficiency around the Coma cluster is 2 Mpc, i.e. one virial radius. Comparing the H i mass function (HIMF) of cluster with non-cluster members of the Coma Supercluster we detect a shortage of high H i mass galaxies among cluster members that can be ascribed to the pattern of H i deficiency found in rich clusters.

The COMA/A1367 Supercluster and Its Environs

The three-dimensional galaxy distribution in the region of space surrounding the two rich clusters Coma and A1367 is analyzed by using a nearly complete redshift sample of 238 galaxies with m, < 15.0 in a 260 degree2 region of the sky; 44 of these redshifts are reported here for the first time. We find that the two clusters are enveloped in a common supercluster which also contains four groups ...

On the local radio luminosity function of galaxies. II: environmental dependences among late-type galaxies

Using new extensive radio continuum surveys at 1.4 GHz (FIRST and NVSS), we derive the distribution of the radio/optical and radio/NIR luminosity (RLF) of late-type (Sa-Irr) galaxies (mp < 15.7) in 5 nearby clusters of galaxies: A262, Cancer, A1367, Coma and Virgo. With the aim of discussing possible environmental dependences of the radio properties, we compare these results with those obtained...

We present preliminary results of a multi-wavelength study focused on the evolution of spiral galaxies in the UV-optical colour-magnitude (CM) diagram. By combining HI, UV and optical observations of the Coma-Abell1367 supercluster we are able to identify galaxies at different stages of their evolution: from healthy star-forming galaxies, to blue HI-poor spirals and transition objects. Our anal...

The North Ecliptic Pole Supercluster

We have used the ROSAT All-Sky Survey to detect a known supercluster at z = 0.087 in the North Ecliptic Pole region. The X-ray data greatly improve our understanding of this supercluster’s characteristics, approximately doubling our knowledge of the structure’s spatial extent and tripling the cluster/group membership compared to the optical discovery data. The supercluster is a rich structure c...

We present new radial velocities for 306 bright (R < 16) galaxies in a 77 deg 2 region of the Shapley supercluster measured with the FLAIR-II spectrograph on the UK Schmidt Telescope. The galaxies we measured were uniformly distributed over the survey area in contrast to previous samples which were concentrated in several rich Abell clusters. Most of the galaxies (230) were members of the Shapl...
