We demonstrate the power of Gibbs point process models from the spatial statistics literature when applied to studies of resolved galaxies. We conduct a rigorous analysis of the spatial distributions of objects in the star formation complexes of M33, including giant molecular clouds (GMCs) and young stellar cluster candidates (YSCCs). We choose a hierarchical model structure from GMCs to YSCCs based on the natural formation hierarchy between them. This approach circumvents the limitations of the empirical two-point correlation function analysis by naturally accounting for the inhomogeneity present in the distribution of YSCCs. We also investigate the effects of GMCs' properties on their spatial distributions. We confirm that the distribution of GMCs and YSCCs are highly correlated. We found that the spatial distributions of YSCCs reaches a peak of clustering pattern at ~250 pc scale compared to a Poisson process. This clustering mainly occurs in regions where the galactocentric distance >~4.5 kpc. Furthermore, the galactocentric distance of GMCs and their mass have strong positive effects on the correlation strength between GMCs and YSCCs. We outline some possible implications of these findings for our understanding of the cluster formation process.
我们展示了吉布斯点过程模型在空间统计文献中应用于研究已分解星系时的力量。我们对M33恒星形成复合体中天体的空间分布进行了严格的分析,包括巨分子云(GMCs)和年轻候选星团(YSCCs)。我们根据gmc - YSCCs之间的自然地层层次选择了一种分层模型结构。这种方法通过自然地考虑到YSCCs分布中的不均匀性,规避了经验两点相关函数分析的局限性。我们还研究了gmc的性质对其空间分布的影响。我们证实了gmc和YSCCs的分布高度相关。我们发现,与泊松过程相比,YSCCs的空间分布在~250 pc尺度上达到了聚类模式的峰值。这种星团主要发生在星系中心距离>~4.5 kpc的区域。此外,gmc的星系中心距离和质量对gmc与YSCCs的相关强度有很强的正影响。我们概述了这些发现对我们理解星团形成过程的一些可能的影响。

Thermal instability and multiphase gas in the simulated interstellar medium with conduction, viscosity, and magnetic fields 热不稳定性和多相气体在模拟星际介质的传导,粘度,和磁场

Thermal instability (TI) plays a crucial role in the formation of multiphase structures and their dynamics in the Interstellar Medium (ISM) and is a leading theory for cold cloud creation in various astrophysical environments. In this paper we investigate thermal instability under the influence of various initial conditions and physical processes. We experiment with Gaussian random field (GRF) density perturbations of different initial power spectra. We also enroll thermal conduction and physical viscosity in isotropic hydrodynamic and anisotropic magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations. We find that the initial GRF spectral index $alpha$ has a dramatic impact on the pure hydrodynamic development of thermal instability, influencing the size, number and motions of clouds. Cloud fragmentation happens due to two mechanisms: tearing and contraction rebound. In the runs with isotropic conduction and viscosity, the structures and dynamics of the clouds are dominated by evaporation and condensation flows in the non-linear regime, and the flow speed is regulated by viscosity. Cloud disruptions happen as a result of the Darrieus--Landau instability (DLI). Although at very late times, all individual clouds merge into one cold structure in all hydrodynamic runs. In the MHD case, the cloud structure is determined by both the initial perturbations and the initial magnetic field strength. In high $beta$ runs, anisotropic conduction causes dense filaments to align with the local magnetic fields and the field direction can become reoriented. Strong magnetic fields suppress cross-field contraction and cold filaments can form along or perpendicular to the initial fields.
热不稳定性(TI)在星际介质(ISM)中多相结构的形成及其动力学中起着至关重要的作用,是各种天体物理环境中冷云形成的主要理论。本文研究了不同初始条件和物理过程对热不稳定性的影响。对不同初始功率谱的高斯随机场(GRF)密度扰动进行了实验。我们还在各向同性流体力学和各向异性磁流体力学(MHD)模拟中加入了热传导和物理粘度。我们发现初始GRF光谱指数$alpha$对热不稳定性的纯水动力发展有显著影响,影响云的大小、数量和运动。云破碎的发生有两种机制:撕裂和收缩回弹。在具有各向同性传导和黏度的流场中,云的结构和动力学以非线性蒸发和凝结流为主,流动速度受黏度调节。云的破坏是由于达里厄斯-朗道不稳定性(DLI)造成的。尽管在很晚的时候,在所有的流体动力学运行中,所有单独的云合并成一个冷结构。在MHD情况下,云的结构是由初始扰动和初始磁场强度共同决定的。在高$beta$运行时,各向异性传导导致致密细丝与局部磁场对齐,并且磁场方向可以重新定向。强磁场抑制交叉场收缩,冷细丝可以沿着或垂直于初始场形成。

Using the MEGAFLOW survey, which consists of a combination of MUSE and UVES observations of 22 quasar fields selected to contain strong MgII absorbers, we measure covering fractions of CIV and MgII as a function of impact parameter $b$ using a novel Bayesian logistic regression method on unbinned data, appropriate for small samples. In the MUSE data, we found 215 z=1$-$1.5 [OII] emitters with fluxes$>$10^{-17}erg s-1 cm-2 and within 250 kpc of quasar sight-lines. Over this redshift path z=1$-$1.5, we have 19 (32) CIV (MgII) absorption systems with rest-frame equivalent width (REW) Wr$>$0.05{AA} associated with at least one [OII] emitter. The covering fractions of CIV (MgII) absorbers with mean Wr$approx$0.7{AA} (1.0{AA}), exceeds 50% within 30 (45) kpc, with a mild redshift evolution, in agreement with larger studies. For absorption systems that have CIV but not MgII, we find in 80% of the cases no [OII] counterpart. This may indicate that the CIV, in these cases, come from the intergalactic medium (IGM), i.e. beyond 250 kpc, or that it is associated with lower-mass or quiescent galaxies.
MEGAFLOW调查包括对22个类星体场的MUSE和UVES观测,这些类星体被选中含有强MgII吸收剂,我们使用一种适用于小样本的新型贝叶斯逻辑回归方法对未分类数据测量CIV和MgII的覆盖分数作为影响参数$b$的函数。在MUSE数据中,我们发现215个z=1$-$1.5 [OII]发射体,通量$>$10^{-17}erg s-1 cm-2,距离类星体视线250 kpc。在这个红移路径z=1$-$1.5上,我们有19(32)个CIV (MgII)吸收系统,其静止帧等效宽度(REW) Wr$>$0.05{AA}与至少一个[OII]发射器相关。平均Wr约为0.7{AA} (1.0{AA})的CIV (MgII)吸收剂的覆盖分数在30 (45)kpc内超过50%,伴有轻微的红移演化,与更大规模的研究结果一致。对于有CIV但没有MgII的吸收系统,我们发现80%的情况下没有对应的[OII]。这可能表明,在这些情况下,文明来自星系间介质(IGM),即超过250kpc,或者它与低质量或静止星系有关。

We perform a novel test of General Relativity by measuring the gravitational constant in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The LMC contains six well-studied Cepheid variable stars in detached eclipsing binaries. Radial velocity and photometric observations enable a complete orbital solution, and precise measurements of the Cepheids' periods permit detailed stellar modelling. Both are sensitive to the strength of gravity, the former via Kepler's third law and the latter through the gravitational free-fall time. We jointly fit the observables for stellar parameters and the gravitational constant. Performing a full Markov Chain Monte Carlo analysis of the parameter space including all relevant nuisance parameters, we constrain the gravitational constant in the Large Magellanic Cloud relative to the Solar System to be $G_text{LMC}/G_text{SS} = 0.93^{+0.05}_{-0.04}$. We discuss the implications of this 5% measurement of Newton's constant in another galaxy for dark energy and modified gravity theories. This result excludes one Cepheid, CEP-1812, which is an outlier and needs further study: it is either a highly unusual system to which our model does not apply, or it prefers $G_text{LMC}

We report the first high spatial resolution measurement of magnetic fields surrounding LkH$alpha$ 101, a part of the Auriga-California molecular cloud. The observations were taken with the POL-2 polarimeter on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope within the framework of the B-fields In Star-forming Region Observations (BISTRO) survey. Observed polarization of thermal dust emission at 850 $mu$m is found to be mostly associated with the red-shifted gas component of the cloud. The magnetic field displays a relatively complex morphology. Two variants of the Davis-Chandrasekhar-Fermi method, unsharp masking and structure function, are used to calculate the strength of magnetic fields in the plane of the sky, yielding a similar result of $B_{rm POS}sim 115$ $mathrm{mu}$G. The mass-to-magnetic-flux ratio in critical value units, $lambdasim0.3$, is the smallest among the values obtained for other regions surveyed by POL-2. This implies that the LkH$alpha$ 101 region is sub-critical and the magnetic field is strong enough to prevent gravitational collapse. The inferred $delta B/B_0sim 0.3$ implies that the large scale component of the magnetic field dominates the turbulent one. The variation of the polarization fraction with total emission intensity can be fitted by a power-law with an index of $alpha=0.82pm0.03$, which lies in the range previously reported for molecular clouds. We find that the polarization fraction decreases rapidly with proximity to the only early B star (LkH$alpha$ 101) in the region. The magnetic field tangling and the joint effect of grain alignment and rotational disruption by radiative torques are potential of explaining such a decreasing trend.
我们报告了LkH $alpha$ 101周围磁场的首次高空间分辨率测量,LkH 101是Auriga-California分子云的一部分。在恒星形成区b场观测(BISTRO)调查的框架内,使用詹姆斯·克拉克·麦克斯韦望远镜上的POL-2偏振计进行观测。在850 $mu$ m处观测到的热尘埃发射极化主要与云的红移气体成分有关。磁场呈现出相对复杂的形态。利用戴维斯-钱德拉塞卡-费米方法的两种变体,即非尖锐掩蔽法和结构函数法,计算了天空平面上的磁场强度,得到了类似的结果$B_{rm POS}sim 115$$mathrm{mu}$ g。在POL-2观测的其他区域中,临界单位的质量与磁通量比$lambdasim0.3$是最小的。这意味着LkH $alpha$ 101区域处于亚临界状态,磁场足够强大,可以防止引力坍缩。推导出的$delta B/B_0sim 0.3$意味着磁场的大尺度分量支配着湍流分量。极化分数随总发射强度的变化可以用指数为$alpha=0.82pm0.03$的幂律拟合,该指数位于先前报道的分子云的范围内。我们发现偏振分数随着靠近该区域唯一的早期B星(LkH $alpha$ 101)而迅速减小。磁场缠结和辐射转矩引起的晶粒取向和旋转破坏的联合效应是解释这种下降趋势的潜在原因。

Feedback from AGN is thought to be key in shaping the life cycle of their host galaxies by regulating star-formation activity. Therefore, to understand the impact of AGN on star formation, it is essential to trace the molecular gas out of which stars form. In this paper we present the first systematic study of the CO properties of AGN hosts at z~2 for a sample of 27 X-ray selected AGN spanning two orders of magnitude in AGN bolometric luminosity (Lbol= 10^44.7-10^46.9 erg/s) by using ALMA Band 3 observations of the CO(3-2) transition (~1" angular resolution). To search for evidence of AGN feedback on the CO properties of the host galaxies, we compared our AGN with a sample of inactive (i.e., non-AGN) galaxies from the PHIBSS survey with similar redshift, stellar masses, and SFRs. We used the same CO transition as a consistent proxy for the gas mass for the two samples in order to avoid systematics involved when assuming conversion factors. By adopting a Bayesian approach to take upper limits into account, we analyzed CO luminosities as a function of stellar masses and SFRs, as well as the ratio LCO(3-2)/M* (proxy for the gas fraction). The two samples show statistically consistent trends in the LCO(3-2)-Lfir and LCO(3-2)-M* planes. However, there are indications that AGN feature lower CO(3-2) luminosities (0.4-0.7 dex) than inactive galaxies at the 2-3sigma level when we focus on the subset of parameters where the results are better constrained and on the distribution of the mean LCO(3-2)/M*. Therefore, even by conservatively assuming the same excitation factor r31, we would find lower molecular gas masses in AGN, and assuming higher r31 would exacerbate this difference. We interpret our result as a hint of the potential effect of AGN activity (e.g., radiation and outflows), which may be able to heat, excite, dissociate, and/or deplete the gas reservoir of the host galaxies.

来自AGN的反馈被认为是通过调节恒星形成活动来塑造宿主星系生命周期的关键。因此,为了了解AGN对恒星形成的影响,有必要追踪恒星形成的分子气体。在本文中,我们首次系统地研究了AGN主体在z~2处的CO性质,使用ALMA波段3观测CO(3-2)跃迁(~1”角分辨率),对27个x射线选择的AGN样本进行了研究,AGN的热光度跨越两个数量级(Lbol= 10^44.7-10^46.9 erg/s)。为了寻找AGN对宿主星系CO特性反馈的证据,我们将AGN与来自PHIBSS调查的非活动(即非AGN)星系样本进行了比较,这些星系具有相似的红移、恒星质量和SFRs。我们使用相同的CO转变作为两个样品的气体质量的一致代理,以避免在假设转换因子时涉及系统。通过考虑上限的贝叶斯方法,我们分析了CO光度作为恒星质量和SFRs以及LCO(3-2)/M*(气体分数的代表)的函数。两种样品在LCO(3-2)-Lfir和LCO(3-2)-M*平面上表现出统计学上一致的趋势。然而,有迹象表明,在2-3sigma水平上,AGN的CO(3-2)亮度(0.4-0.7指数)低于非活动星系,当我们关注结果更好约束的参数子集和平均LCO(3-2)/M*的分布时。因此,即使保守地假设相同的激励因子r31,我们也会发现AGN中的分子气体质量较低,并且假设较高的r31会加剧这种差异。我们将我们的结果解释为AGN活动(例如,辐射和流出)的潜在影响的暗示,它可能能够加热,激发,解离和/或耗尽宿主星系的气藏。(简略)

Although ZwCl0024+1652 galaxy cluster at $zsim0.4$ has been thoroughly analysed, it lacks a comprehensive study of star formation and nuclear activity of its members. With GaLAxy Cluster Evolution (GLACE) survey, a total of 174 H$alpha$ emission-line galaxies (ELGs) were detected, most of them having [NII}]. We reduced and analysed a set of [OIII] and H$beta$ tunable filter (TF) observations within GLACE survey. Using H$alpha$ priors, we identified [OIII] and H$beta$ in 35 ($sim$20%) and 59 ($sim$34%) sources, respectively, with 21 of them having both emission lines, and 20 having in addition [NII]. Applying BPT-NII diagnostic diagram, we classified these ELGs into 40% star-forming (SF), 55% composites, and 5% LINERs. Star formation rate (SFR) measured through extinction corrected H$alpha$ fluxes increases with stellar mass ($mathrm{M}_{*}$), attaining its peak at $mathrm{M}_{*}sim10^{9.8}mathrm{M}_odot$. We observed that the cluster centre to $sim$1.3Mpc is devoid of SF galaxies and AGN. Our results suggest that the star formation efficiency declines as the local density increases in the cluster medium. Moreover, the SF and AGN fractions drop sharply towards high-density environments. We observed a strong decline in SF fraction in high $mathrm{M}_*$, confirming that star formation is highly suppressed in high-mass cluster galaxies. Finally, we determined that SFR correlates with $mathrm{M}_*$ while specific SFR (sSFR) anti-correlates with $mathrm{M}_*$, both for cluster and field. This work shows the importance and strength of TF observations when studying ELGs in clusters at higher redshifts. We provide with this paper a catalogue of ELGs with H$beta$ and/or [OIII] lines in ZwCl0024+1652 cluster.

The census of open clusters in the Milky Way is in a never-before seen state of flux. Recent works have reported hundreds of new open clusters thanks to the incredible astrometric quality of the Gaia satellite, but other works have also reported that many open clusters discovered in the pre Gaia era may be associations. We aim to conduct a comparison of clustering algorithms used to detect open clusters, attempting to statistically quantify their strengths and weaknesses by deriving the sensitivity, specificity, and precision of each as well as their true positive rate against a larger sample. We selected DBSCAN, HDBSCAN, and Gaussian mixture models for further study, owing to their speed and appropriateness for use with Gaia data. We developed a preprocessing pipeline for Gaia data and developed the algorithms further for the specific application to open clusters. We derived detection rates for all 1385 open clusters in the fields in our study as well as more detailed performance statistics for 100 of these open clusters. DBSCAN was sensitive to 50% to 62% of the true positive open clusters in our sample, with generally very good specificity and precision. HDBSCAN traded precision for a higher sensitivity of up to 82%, especially across different distances and scales of open clusters. Gaussian mixture models were slow and only sensitive to 33% of open clusters in our sample, which tended to be larger objects. Additionally, we report on 41 new open cluster candidates detected by HDBSCAN, three of which are closer than 500 pc. When used with additional post-processing to mitigate its false positives, we have found that HDBSCAN is the most sensitive and effective algorithm for recovering open clusters in Gaia data. Our results suggest that many more new and already reported open clusters have yet to be detected in Gaia data.
银河系中疏散星团的普查正处于一种前所未有的变化状态。最近的研究报告了数百个新的疏散星团,这要归功于盖亚卫星令人难以置信的天文测量质量,但其他研究也报告了许多在前盖亚时代发现的疏散星团可能是关联的。我们的目标是对用于检测开放聚类的聚类算法进行比较,试图通过推导每种算法的灵敏度、特异性和精度以及它们对更大样本的真阳性率来统计量化它们的优缺点。我们选择了DBSCAN、HDBSCAN和高斯混合模型进行进一步的研究,因为它们的速度快,适合与Gaia数据一起使用。我们开发了Gaia数据的预处理管道,并进一步开发了针对开放集群具体应用的算法。在我们的研究中,我们得出了所有1385个开放集群的检测率,以及其中100个开放集群的更详细的性能统计数据。在我们的样本中,DBSCAN对50%至62%的真阳性开放簇敏感,通常具有非常好的特异性和准确性。HDBSCAN以精度换取高达82%的灵敏度,特别是在不同距离和尺度的疏散星团之间。高斯混合模型速度慢,仅对样本中33%的开放簇敏感,这些开放簇往往是较大的对象。此外,我们报告了HDBSCAN检测到的41个新的开放簇候选,其中三个接近500 pc。当与额外的后处理一起使用以减轻其误报时,我们发现HDBSCAN是恢复Gaia数据中开放簇的最敏感和有效的算法。我们的研究结果表明,在盖亚的数据中还发现了更多新的和已经报道过的疏散星团。

The Pristine survey – XII. Gemini-GRACES chemo-dynamical study of newly discovered extremely metal-poor stars in the Galaxy 原始调查-十二。双子座-格雷斯对银河系中新发现的极贫金属恒星的化学动力学研究

High-resolution optical spectra of 30 metal-poor stars selected from the textit{Pristine} survey are presented, based on observations taken with the Gemini Observatory GRACES spectrograph. Stellar parameters T$_{rm eff}$ and $log g$ are determined using Gaia DR2 parallaxes and MIST/MESA metal-poor isochrones. GRACES spectra are used to determine chemical abundances (or upper-limits) for 20 elements (Li, O, Na, Mg, K, Ca, Ti, Sc, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Y, Zr, Ba, La, Nd, Eu). These stars are confirmed to be metal-poor ([Fe/H]$<-2.5$), with higher precision than from earlier medium-resolution analyses. The chemistry for most targets is similar to that of other extremely metal-poor stars in the Galactic halo. Two stars near [Fe/H]$=-3.0$ have unusually low Ca and high Mg, suggestive of contributions from few SN~II, where alpha-element formation through hydrostatic nucleosynthesis was more efficient. Three new carbon-enhanced metal-poor stars are also identified (two CEMP-s and one potential CEMP-no star), when our chemical abundances are combined with carbon from previous medium-resolution analyses. The GRACES spectra also provide precision radial velocities ($sigma_{rm RV}le0.2$ km s$^{-1}$) for dynamical orbit calculations with the Gaia DR2 proper motions. Most of our targets are dynamically associated with the Galactic halo; however, five stars with [Fe/H]$<-3$ have planar-like orbits, including one retrograde planar star. Another five stars are dynamically consistent with the Gaia-Sequoia accretion event; three have typical high [$alpha$/Fe] ratios for their metallicities, whereas two are [Mg/Fe]-deficient, and one is a new CEMP-s candidate. These results are discussed in terms of the formation and early chemical evolution of the Galaxy.
根据双子座天文台GRACES光谱仪的观测结果,展示了从textit{原始}调查中选择的30颗金属贫乏恒星的高分辨率光谱。恒星参数T $_{rm eff}$和$log g$是使用盖亚DR2视差和MIST/MESA等时线确定的。grace光谱用于确定20种元素(Li, O, Na, Mg, K, Ca, Ti, Sc, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Y, Zr, Ba, La, Nd, Eu)的化学丰度(或上限)。这些恒星被证实是金属贫乏的([Fe/H] $<-2.5$),比早期的中等分辨率分析精度更高。大多数目标的化学性质与银河晕中其他极度缺乏金属的恒星相似。在[Fe/H] $=-3.0$附近的两颗恒星有异常低的Ca和高的Mg,暗示了SN II的贡献,其中通过流体静力核合成的α元素形成更有效。当我们的化学丰度与之前中等分辨率分析的碳相结合时,还发现了三颗新的碳增强金属贫星(两颗cmp -s星和一颗潜在的cmp -无星)。GRACES光谱还提供了精确的径向速度($sigma_{rm RV}le0.2$ km s $^{-1}$),用于盖亚DR2固有运动的动态轨道计算。我们的大多数目标都与银河晕动态地联系在一起;然而,有五颗[Fe/H] $<-3$的恒星有类似平面的轨道,包括一颗逆行的平面恒星。另外5颗恒星与Gaia-Sequoia吸积事件动态一致;三种金属丰度具有典型的高[$alpha$ /Fe]比率,而两种是[Mg/Fe]缺乏,一种是新的cmp -s候选者。这些结果将从银河系的形成和早期化学演化的角度进行讨论。

H α fluxes and extinction distances for planetary nebulae in the IPHAS survey of the northern galactic plane 北银面IPHAS巡天中行星状星云的H α通量和消光距离

We report H$alpha$ filter photometry for 197 northern hemisphere planetary nebulae (PNe) obtained using imaging data from the IPHAS survey. H$alpha$+[N II] fluxes were measured for 46 confirmed or possible PNe discovered by the IPHAS survey and for 151 previously catalogued PNe that fell within the area of the northern Galactic Plane surveyed by IPHAS. After correcting for [N II] emission admitted by the IPHAS H$alpha$ filter, the resulting H$alpha$ fluxes were combined with published radio free-free fluxes and H$beta$ fluxes, in order to estimate mean optical extinctions to 143 PNe using ratios involving their integrated Balmer line fluxes and their extinction-free radio fluxes. Distances to the PNe were then estimated using three different 3D interstellar dust extinction mapping methods, including the IPHAS-based H-MEAD algorithm of Sale (2014). These methods were used to plot dust extinction versus distance relationships for the lines of sight to the PNe; the intercepts with the derived dust optical extinctions allowed distances to the PNe to be inferred. For 17 of the PNe in our sample reliable Gaia DR2 distances were available and these have been compared with the distances derived using three different extinction mapping algorithms as well as with distances from the nebular radius vs. H$alpha$ surface brightness relation of Frew et al. (2016). That relation and the H-MEAD extinction mapping algorithm yielded the closest agreement with the Gaia DR2 distances.
我们报告了利用IPHAS调查的成像数据获得的197个北半球行星状星云(PNe)的H $alpha$滤光器光度测定。对IPHAS调查发现的46个已确认或可能发现的PNe以及IPHAS调查的位于北银道面区域内的151个先前编目的PNe测量了H $alpha$ +[N II]通量。在对IPHAS H $alpha$滤波器接收的[N II]发射进行校正后,将得到的H $alpha$通量与公布的射电自由通量和H $beta$通量结合起来,利用它们的综合巴尔默线通量和它们的无消光射电通量的比值来估计平均光学消光到143 PNe。然后使用三种不同的3D星际尘埃消光映射方法估计到海王星的距离,包括Sale(2014)基于iphasus的H-MEAD算法。这些方法用于绘制尘埃消退与PNe视线距离的关系;通过对尘埃光学消光的截取,可以推断出星云ne的距离。对于我们样本中的17个PNe,可以获得可靠的Gaia DR2距离,并将这些距离与使用三种不同消光映射算法获得的距离以及距离星云半径与H $alpha$表面亮度关系(Frew et al., 2016)进行了比较。这种关系和H-MEAD消光映射算法得出了与盖亚DR2距离最接近的结果。

Wesson","doi":"10.1093/mnras/staa3820","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/staa3820","url":null,"abstract":"We report H$alpha$ filter photometry for 197 northern hemisphere planetary nebulae (PNe) obtained using imaging data from the IPHAS survey. H$alpha$+[N II] fluxes were measured for 46 confirmed or possible PNe discovered by the IPHAS survey and for 151 previously catalogued PNe that fell within the area of the northern Galactic Plane surveyed by IPHAS. After correcting for [N II] emission admitted by the IPHAS H$alpha$ filter, the resulting H$alpha$ fluxes were combined with published radio free-free fluxes and H$beta$ fluxes, in order to estimate mean optical extinctions to 143 PNe using ratios involving their integrated Balmer line fluxes and their extinction-free radio fluxes. Distances to the PNe were then estimated using three different 3D interstellar dust extinction mapping methods, including the IPHAS-based H-MEAD algorithm of Sale (2014). These methods were used to plot dust extinction versus distance relationships for the lines of sight to the PNe; the intercepts with the derived dust optical extinctions allowed distances to the PNe to be inferred. For 17 of the PNe in our sample reliable Gaia DR2 distances were available and these have been compared with the distances derived using three different extinction mapping algorithms as well as with distances from the nebular radius vs. H$alpha$ surface brightness relation of Frew et al. (2016). That relation and the H-MEAD extinction mapping algorithm yielded the closest agreement with the Gaia DR2 distances.","PeriodicalId":8452,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Astrophysics of Galaxies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73811202","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
