Ram Pressure and Anomalous Shell Formation in HoII
نویسنده
چکیده
Neutral hydrogen VLA D-array observations of the dwarf irregular galaxy HoII, a prototype galaxy for studies of shell formation, are presented. The large-scale H I morphology is reminiscent of ram pressure and is unlikely caused by interactions. A case is made for intragroup gas in poor and compact groups like the M81 group, to which HoII belongs. Numerous shortcomings of the supernova explosions and stellar winds scenario to create the shells in HoII are highlighted, and it is suggested that ram pressure may be able to reconcile the observations available.

The Large-Scale Structure and Environment of HoII
Neutral hydrogen VLA D-array observations of the dwarf irregular galaxy HoII, a prototype galaxy for studies of shell formation and self-propagating star formation, are presented. The large-scale H I morphology is reminiscent of ram pressure and is unlikely caused by interactions. A case is made for intragroup gas in poor and compact groups similar to the M81 group, to which HoII belongs. Numer...
متن کاملHi and Hot Gas in the Outskirts of the M81 Group
Results are presented from a wide area, high resolution HI synthesis survey of the outer regions of the nearby M81 group, where internal (galactic) and external (group-related) evolution processes can be studied simultaneously in great detail. The survey encompasses the star forming dwarf galaxies M81dwA, UGC4483, and HoII, where evidence of ram pressure stripping was recently discovered. The d...
متن کاملAn Investigation of Abnormal Fluid Pressure within an Evaporitic Cap Rock in the Gavbandi Area of Iran and its Impact on the Planning of Gas Exploration Wells
A synthesis of well logs was carried out and drilling mud weight data were analyzed to figure out anomalous high fluid pressure within the Triassic evaporitic cap rock (the Dashtak formation) and study its impact on the geometry of anticlinal traps in the gas rich Gavbandi province located in the southeast part of the Zagros Mountains. The results indicated that the location of anticlinal traps...
متن کاملInteraction between the Intergalactic Medium and Galactic Outflows from Dwarf Galaxies
We have carried out 2D hydrodynamical simulations in order to study the interaction between supernova-powered gas outflows from low-mass galaxies and the local intergalactic medium (IGM). We are specifically interested in investigating whether a high pressure IGM, such as that in clusters of galaxies, can prevent the gas from escaping from the galaxy, as suggested by Babul and Rees (1992). We f...
متن کاملEvaluation of Buckling and Post Buckling of Variable Thickness Shell Subjected to External Hydrostatic Pressure
Buckling and post buckling of cylindrical shells under hydrostatic pressure is regarded as important issue in structure of submarines. These cylindrical shells have variable thickness due to construction process which effected by pressure of buckling and its destruction. In this paper, effects of changing thickness on buckling and destruction pressure under external hydrostatic pressure of a sh...
