环境对星系气体含量的演化起着重要的作用。星系团螺旋的气体缺乏和热的星云内介质(ICM)在从这些星系剥离气体中的作用是一个很好的研究课题。具有热扩散的松散组使用来自组内介质(IGM)的X射线发射,从而在没有热IGM的组和组之间形成中间环境。这些X射线亮团比星团具有更小的速度色散和更低的温度,但比没有弥散X射线辐射的松散团具有更高的IGM密度。通过对有和没有来自IGM的弥散X射线辐射的松散星系团的单碟比较研究表明,X射线亮星系团中的星系比非X射线亮星系团中的星系平均损失更多的气体。本文给出了NGC 5044、NGC 720、NGC 1550和IC 1459等4个X射线亮群13个星系的GMRTH观测结果。本工作的目的是研究这些星系中H+的形态,看看热IGM是否以任何方式改变了它们的H+含量或分布。除了受干扰的H盘形态外,我们发现大多数星系与场螺旋相比都有收缩的H盘。这表明IGM辅助的剥离过程,如冲压压力,可能已经剥离了星系外边缘的气体.关键词:星系:演化-星系:相互作用-射电线:星系-X射线:星系
ABSTRACT Environment plays an important role in the evolution of the gas contents of galaxies. Gasdeficiency of cluster spirals and the role of the hot intraclu ster medium (ICM) in strippinggas from these galaxies is a well studied subject. Loose groups with diffuse X-ray emmisionfrom the intragroup medium (IGM) offer an intermediate environment between clusters andgroups without a hot IGM. These X-ray bright groups have smaller velocity dispersion andlower temperature than clusters, but higher IGM density than loose groups without diffuseX-ray emission. A single dish comparative study of loose groups with and without diffuseX-ray emission from the IGM, showed that the galaxies in X-ray bright groups have lost moregas on average than the galaxies in non X-ray bright groups. In this paper we present GMRTHobservations of 13 galaxies from 4 X-ray bright groups: NGC5044, NGC720, NGC1550and IC1459. The aim of this work is to study the morphology of Hin these galaxies andto see if the hot IGM has in any way affected their Hcontent or distribution. In addition todisturbed Hmorphology,we find that most galaxies have shrunken H disks compared to thefield spirals. This indicates that IGM assisted stripping pr ocesses like ram pressure may havestripped gas from the outer edges of the galaxies.Key words: galaxies:evolution-galaxies:interactions-radiolines:galaxies-X-rays:galaxies
