Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S 4 G, PI Sheth ) : structural decompositions Eija Laurikainen Univ. of Oulu; FINCA, Univ. of Turku Decomposition team: Heikki Salo Eija Laurikainen Jarkko Laine Sebastien Comer on Dimitri


  1. Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S 4 G, PI Sheth ) : structural decompositions Eija Laurikainen Univ. of Oulu; FINCA, Univ. of Turku Decomposition team: Heikki Salo Eija Laurikainen Jarkko Laine Sebastien Comer´ on Dimitri Gadotti To appear in Salo et al. (2013)

  2. Sample: • Radial velocity in radio ν < 3000 km s − 1 (equivalent to D=41 Mpc) • Integrated blue magnitude m Bcorr < 15.5 mag • Angular diameter D 25 > 1’ • Galactic latitude > 30 0 ⇒ N=2352 galaxies (+ 62 in the same frames) Data: • IRAC images at 3.6 and 4.5 µm wavelengths • Map the galaxies up to 1.5 x D 25 • Surface density limit: µm (AB) 3 . 6 ∼ 27 mag arcsec − 2 • Pixel resolution (3.6 µm ) = 0.75” (for sampling 1.2”) 1

  3. Decomposition approach: Use GALFIT (Peng et al. 2010) • Levenberg-Marguadt algorithm: [ OBS ( x, y ) − MODEL ( x, y )] 2 χ 2 = 1 X X (1) σ ( x, y ) 2 N x y ⇒ minimize χ 2 between observed and model images ⇒ model image convolved with the image PSF • Use generalized ellipses for isophotes (C=0): 1 y ′ − y 0 C +2 ! ˛ ˛ C +2 | x ′ − x 0 | C +2 + r ( x ′ , y ′ ) = ˛ ˛ (2) ˛ ˛ q ˛ ˛ 2

  4. Fitting functions: • S´ ersic function (bulge) : ( r/r e ) 1 /n − 1 “ h i” Σ( r ) = Σ e exp − κ (3) • Exponential function (disk): Σ( r ) = Σ o exp( − r/h r ) (4) • Exponential function (edge-on disk): r x „ r x « sech 2 ( r z /h z ) , Σ( r x , r z ) = Σ o K 1 (5) h r h r • Modified Ferrers function (bar, β =0, α =2): 1 − ( r/r out ) 2 − β ˜ α  ˆ Σ 0 r < r out Σ( r ) = (6) 0 r ≥ r out • PSF-convolved point source (unresolved central source) 3

  5. What do we need: • Mosaicked science images (no none pixel values; PI) • PSF-image (oversampled, composite over rot. angles; Jarret) • Sigma-images (created from PI weight images) • Mask-images (created with SExtractor, edited by hand) • Orientation parameters, sky background, galaxy center ⇒ important to use those given with the decompositions Running the decompositions: • Use GALFIDL (Salo) ⇒ creation of σ images ⇒ semiautomatic filling of the input files ⇒ visualization of the outcome 4

  6. Sky background (P4): ⇒ Decompositions only for galaxies with large enough FOV 5

  7. Orientation parameters (P4): 6

  9. What kind of decompositions: (1) Automatic single S´ ersic fits (2) Automatic S´ ersic+expo fits (BD) (3) Individually checked bulge/disk/bar/nucleus fits (BDbarn): BD / BDn BDD / BDDn BDbar / BDbarn DDbar / DDbarn Dbar / Dbarn DD / DDn D / Dn Similar edge-on models 8

  10. How to show the profiles : an exponential disk 9

  11. Exponential disk + Ferrers bar ⇒ highlights non-axisymmetric structures; (Laurikainen et al. 2005) ⇒ important to look at: the profile and the model image Fitting based on χ 2 , but in final model selection not critical 10

  12. Examples of the decompositions: NGC 3938 [SA(s)c]: bulge/disk (BD) 11

(2008) for log 10 M > 9.5 28

  30. IRSA IMPORTANT MANY P4 MODELS DONE BEFORE FINAL P1 IMAGES ⇒ need to be sure to use correct mask-files etc. All input data needed in decompositions: (“IDE” = galaxy designation) IDE.phot.1_nonan.fits IDE.1.finmask_nonan.fits IDE.phot.1_sigma.fits_ns PSF-1.composite.fits Output files from 3 different decompositions: “MODEL ” IDE_MODEL.outgal IDE_MODEL.outgal_subcomps.fits IDE_MODEL.outgal_profile.pdf IDE_MODEL.outgal_residual.pdf 29

  32. INDEX-pages for 100 galaxies near NGC1415 Iconic view of available data 1 2.cm 2 3 4 5 6 7 1) P1 image 2) clipped mask image 3) clipped image 4) Deprojected image 5) Elliptical isophotes 6) Sky background 7) Decomposition 31 Clicking on galaxy name (’NGC1415’) ⇒ opens a decomposition page

  33. Conclusions: Suitable: • Properties of bulges and disks in a large galaxy mass range • Easy to do new decompositions Limitations: • Pixel resolution (pix=0.75”, final FWHM ∼ 2”) ⇒ small bulges not always possible to separate from PSF ⇒ not very good for nuclear bars/rings/lenses What kind of decompositions depends on the science goal! IRSA: now 200 gal., the rest Dec 2013 32
