Formation of intergroup and intragroup objects

Kenji Bekki (UNSW)

Origin of isolated massive clouds, intergalactic HII regions, intragroup GCs

etc….

Today’s topic

• Formation of intragroup HI gas, rings, and HII regions (Bekki, Koribalski, Kilborn, Ryan-Weber, Ryder, Couch, etc…).

• Evolution of compact group of galaxies (my old studies).

• Formation of intergroup and intragroup GCs (with Yahagi).

Formation of intracluster/intercluster (group) GCs. (Yahagi & Bekki 2005)

Three roles of galaxy interaction and galaxy-

group interaction

• Morphological transformation (e.g., SpSB)• Triggering starbursts and AGNs (+ GC

formation).• Formation of intragroup stellar and gaseous

(e.g., isolated HI gas, drifting GCs).

Origin of intragroup HI (e.g., recent HIPASS results)

(1) Intergalactic rings. (2)IntragroupHI (NGC 2442)

Ryan-Weber et al. (2002) Ryder et al. (2002)

Dynamical fate of stripped gas in groups

• Formation of isolated HI gas around NGC 2442 (Bekki, Koribalski, Ryder, & Couch 2005)

• ``Dark galaxy formation’’ (Bekki, Kilborn, & Koribalski 2005).

• Intragroup HII regions from tidal compression of HI clouds (Bekki & Ryan-Weber 2005).

Formation of intragroup HI rings (Bekki et al. 2004)

Tidal stripping and common (metal-poor) gaseous halos

Outer disk

Inner disk

Transformation from spiral-rich groups with no intragroup gas into E-dominated ones with intragroup HI (also with spiral companion).

Possible candidate of HI ?

``Selective stripping’’ of outer parts of galaxies in CGs.

• Formation of common HI envelopes in CGs ?• Formation of metal-poor stellar halos (or hot

metal-poor X-ray gas) after E formation ?• A new clue of ``E+A’’s environments (2dF,

6dF, SDSS etc….e.g., the origin of E+As with companion galaxies)

Formation of intergroup GCs. (Yahagi & Bekki 2005)

Predictions of INGC properties.

(1) ~ 100 INGCs / Mpc3.(2) More metal-poor, slightly younger than

those HGC (i.e.., GCs within halos).(3) Immune from GC destruction by

galaxy-scale tidal fields: Do they retain fossil information on initial cluster MF ?

Conclusions.

(1) Stripped HI as intragroup HI objects (e.g. isolated clouds, rings, ``dark galaxy’’ etc).

(2) Metal-poor stellar/gaseous halo formation after transformation from CGs to Es.

(3) Formation of intergroup/intercluster GCs in the hierarchical clustering scenario.

clusters) in interaction/merging
