Relation Between Stellar Mass and Star Formation Activity in Galaxies

For a mass-selected sample of 66544 galaxies with photometric redshifts (zphot) from the Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS), we examine the evolution of star formation activity as a function of stellar mass in galaxies. We estimate the cosmic star formation rates (SFR) over the range 0.2 < zphot < 1.2, using the rest-frame 2800 Å flux (corrected for extinction). We find the mean SFR to be a stron...

The Observed Relation between Stellar Mass, Dust Extinction and Star Formation Rate in Local Galaxies

In this study we investigate the relation between stellar mass, dust extinction and star formation rate (SFR) using ∼ 150, 000 star-forming galaxies from the SDSS DR7. We show that the relation between dust extinction and SFR changes with stellar mass. For galaxies at the same stellar mass dust extinction is anti-correlated with the SFR at stellar masses < 10M⊙. There is a sharp transition in t...

The 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...

The galaxy stellar mass–star formation rate relation: Evidence for an evolving stellar initial mass function?

The evolution of the galaxy stellar mass–star formation rate relationship (M∗−SFR) provides key constraints on the stellar mass assembly histories of galaxies. For star-forming galaxies, M∗−SFR is observed to be fairly tight with a slope close to unity from z ∼ 0 → 2, and it evolves downwards roughly independently of M∗. Simulations of galaxy formation reproduce these trends, broadly independen...

Stellar Populations in the Central Galaxies of Fossil Groups

It is inferred from the symmetrical and luminous X-ray emission of fossil groups that they are mature, relaxed galaxy systems. Cosmological simulations and observations focusing on their dark halo and inter-galactic medium properties confirm their early formation. Recent photometric observations suggest that, unlike the majority of non-fossil brightest group galaxies (BGGs), the central early-t...
