A tale of three galaxies: A “CLUMPY” view of the spectroscopically anomalous galaxies IRAS F10398+1455, IRAS F21013-0739 and SDSS J0808+3948
چکیده انگلیسی
We investigate the dust properties in three spectroscopically anomalous galaxies (IRAS F10398+1455, IRAS F21013-0739 and SDSS J0808+3948). Their Spitzer/IRS spectra are characterized by a steep ∼5-8 μm emission continuum, strong emission bands from polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) molecules, and prominent 10 μm silicate emission. The steep ∼5-8 μm continuum and strong PAH emission features suggest the presence of starbursts, while the silicate emission is indicative of significant heating from AGNs. The simultaneous detection of these two observational properties has rarely been reported on galactic scale. We employ the PAHFIT software to estimate their starlight contributions, and the CLUMPY model for the components contributed by the AGN tori. We find that the CLUMPY model is generally successful in explaining the overall dust infrared emission, although it appears to emit too flat at the ∼5-8 μm continuum to be consistent with that observed in IRAS F10398+1455 and IRAS F21013-0739. The flat ∼5-8 μm continuum calculated from the CLUMPY model could arise from the adopted specific silicate opacity of Ossenkopf et al. (1992) which exceeds that of the Draine and Lee (1984) “astronomical silicate” by a factor up to 2 in the ∼5-8 μm wavelength range. Future models with a variety of dust species incorporated in the CLUMPY radiation transfer regime are needed for a thorough understanding of the dust properties of these spectroscopically anomalous galaxies.
