چکیده
We report the discovery of a 100 kpc HI tail in merging galaxy pair NGC 4490/85 detected by Five-Hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST). The tidal tails extended both south and north directions, they are much longer than that reported previously based on VLA interferometric maps. is surrounded large gas envelope, starburst low metallicity dwarf MAPS 1231+42 found to be connected with indicating interaction trigged intense star formation it. Based fact one order magnitude lower two disks 4490 4485, we speculate near this should primordial could due inflow from circum-galactic medium (CGM). also collimated component pointing at nearby KK 149, suggesting might interacting pair. discuss possible origin long envelope system new data FAST.

The Discovery of Tidal Tails around the Globular Cluster Ngc 5466
We report the discovery of tidal tails around the high-latitude Galactic globular cluster NGC 5466 in Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) data. Neural networks are used to reconstruct the probability distribution of cluster stars in u, g, r, i, z space. The tails are clearly visible, once extra-galactic contaminants and field stars have been eliminated. They extend ∼ 4 • on the sky, corresponding t...
متن کاملSegregation and Tidal Tails of the Globular Cluster NGC 7492
We present a wide field CCD photometric study of Galactic globular cluster NGC 7492. The derived V R color-magnitude diagram extends down to about 3.5 mag below the cluster main sequence turn-off. The field covers 42 × 42 about 3 times larger than the known tidal radius of this cluster. The sample of cluster member candidates obtained by CMD-mask process has been used to construct luminosity an...
متن کاملUv Morphology and Star Formation in the Tidal Tails of Ngc 4038/39
We present GALEX FUV (1530 Å) and NUV (2310 Å) observations of the archetypal merging system NGC 4038/39, “The Antennae”. Both tails are relatively bright in the UV , especially in the vicinity of the Tidal Dwarf Galaxy candidates at the end of the southern tail. The UV light generally falls within the optically delineated tails, although the UV light is considerably more structured, with a rem...
متن کاملTidal tails in CDM cosmologies
We study the formation of tidal tails in pairs of merging disk galaxies with structural properties motivated by current theories of cold dark matter (CDM) cosmologies. In a recent study, Dubinski, Mihos & Hernquist (1996) showed that the formation of prominent tidal tails can be strongly suppressed by massive and extended dark haloes. For the large halo-to-disk mass ratio expected in CDM cosmol...
متن کاملTidal Tails of Star Clusters
Based on recent findings of a formation mechanism of substructure in tidal tails by Küpper, Macleod & Heggie (2008) we investigate a more comprehensive set of N -body models of star clusters on orbits about a Milky-Way-like potential. We find that the predicted epicyclic overdensities arise in any tidal tail no matter which orbit the cluster follows as long as the cluster lives long enough for ...
