论文摘要
我们提出了附近的大规模,高度旋转的杂种Galaxy UGC〜12591的哈勃太空望远镜(HST)观察结果,以及在紫外线对FIR带中的观察结果。 V,I和H频段中的HST数据用于解散结构组件。表面光度法显示了凸起的主导地位,H频段B/D比为$ 69 \%$。光谱能分布(SED)拟合显示出极低的全球恒星形成速率(SFR)为$ \ rm \ sim0.1-0.2 m_ \ odot yr^{ - 1} $,对于银河系的巨大巨大$ \ rm 1.6 \ rm 1.6 \ rm 1.6 \ times10^{11} m_ \ odot的高度,与一定的高度相关的高度均高于A的巨大恒星质量。 $ 3-5 \%$。至少在过去的$ \ rm 10^{8} $年中,银河系一直处于无菌状态,“红色和死亡”星系。 UGC〜12591拥有一个超级质量的黑洞(SMBH),为6.18 \ rm 6.18 \ times 10^{8} m_ \ odot $,目前可能是静止的,即,我们都不会看到大型($ \ rm> 1 kpc $)无线电销量,也不是SMB的贡献,也不是对中等范围的高级助手的范围。我们获得了所有可观察到的重子的详细人口普查,总质量为$ \ rm 6.46 \ times10^{11} m_ \ odot $在病毒半径内,相当于$ \ sim $$ 85 \%$的Baryonic缺陷相对于宇宙的含义。这些重子中只有一小部分位于温暖/热的X射线X射线光环中,而大多数仍然无法观察到。我们讨论了各种天体物理场景,以解释其异常特性。我们的工作是理解如此庞大,孤立星系的组装历史的重要一步。
We present Hubble Space Telescope (HST) observations of the nearby, massive, highly rotating hybrid galaxy UGC~12591, along with observations in UV to FIR bands. HST data in V, I, and H bands is used to disentangle the structural components. Surface photometry shows a dominance of the bulge over the disc with H-band B/D ratio of $69\%$. The spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting reveals an extremely low global star formation rate (SFR) of $\rm\sim0.1-0.2 M_\odot yr^{-1}$, exceptionally low for the galaxy's huge stellar mass of $\rm 1.6\times10^{11}M_\odot$, implying a strong quenching of its SFR with star formation efficiency of $3-5\%$. For at least the past $\rm 10^{8}$ years, the galaxy has remained in a quiescent state as a sterile, `red and dead' galaxy. UGC~12591 hosts a supermassive black hole (SMBH) of $\rm 6.18\times 10^{8} M_\odot$ which is possibly quiescent at present, i.e. neither we see large ($\rm>1 kpc$) radio jets nor is the SMBH contributing significantly to the mid-IR SED, ruling out strong radiative feedback of AGN. We obtained a detailed census of all observable baryons with a total mass of $\rm 6.46\times10^{11} M_\odot$ within the virial radius, amounting to a baryonic deficiency of $\sim$$85\%$ relative to the cosmological mean. Only a small fraction of these baryons resides in a warm/hot circum-galactic X-ray halo, while the majority are still unobservable. We discussed various astrophysical scenarios to explain its unusual properties. Our work is a major step forward in understanding the assembly history of such extremely massive, isolated galaxies.
