Velocity - metallicity correlation for high - z DLA galaxies : Evidence for a mass - metallicity relation ? ⋆
We used our database of VLT-UVES quasar spectra to build up a sample of 70 Damped Lyman-α (DLA) or strong sub-DLA systems with total neutral hydrogen column densities of log N(H ) > ∼ 20 and redshifts in the range 1.7 < z abs < 4.3. For each of the systems, we measured in an homogeneous manner the metallicities relative to Solar, [X/H] (with X = Zn, or S or Si), and the velocity widths of low-...
متن کاملMass-metallicity relation of zCOSMOS galaxies at z ≈ 0.7, its dependence on star formation rate, and the existence of massive low-metallicity galaxies⋆
Aims. The knowledge of the number and physical nature of low-metallicity massive galaxies is crucial for determining and interpreting the mass-metallicity relation (MZR). Methods. Using VLT-ISAAC near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy of 39 zCOSMOS 0.5 < z < 0.9 galaxies, we have measured Hα and [N II] λ 6584 emission line fluxes for galaxies with [O II] λ 3727, Hβ, and [O III] λ 5007 available from ...
متن کاملA metallicity-flattening relation for dwarf elliptical galaxies
It is shown that bright cluster dwarf ellipticals follow a relation between metallicity and apparent flattening. Rounder dwarfs tend to be more metal-rich. The evidence is based on colour as well as spectroscopic line-strength data from the literature. The large scatter of dEs around the mean metallicity-luminosity relation, usually ascribed to large observational errors, turns out to be an ell...
متن کاملThe Hα luminosity-dependent clustering of star-forming galaxies from z ∼ 0.8 to z ∼ 2.2 with HiZELS
We present clustering analyses of identically-selected star-forming galaxies in 3 narrow redshift slices (at z = 0.8, z = 1.47 and z = 2.23), from HiZELS, a deep, near-infrared narrow-band survey. The HiZELS samples span the peak in the cosmic star-formation rate density, identifying typical star-forming galaxies at each epoch. Narrow-band samples have well-defined redshift distributions and ar...
متن کاملThe Universal Stellar Mass–stellar Metallicity Relation for Dwarf Galaxies
We present spectroscopic metallicities of individual stars in seven gas-rich dwarf irregular galaxies (dIrrs), and we show that dIrrs obey the same mass–metallicity relation as the dwarf spheroidal (dSph) satellites of both the Milky Way and M31: Z∗ ∝ M 0.30±0.02 ∗ . The uniformity of the relation is in contradiction to previous estimates of metallicity based on photometry. This relationship is...
