Submitted Abstracts

  * Title: Environmental dependence of star-formation quenching in low-z galaxies
  * Speaker: Cheng Li
  * Abstract: I will present a new analysis of the environment of MaNGA galaxies, examining the correlation of star formation cessation in MaNGA galaxies as indicated by D4000, EW(Halpha) and EW(Hdelta_A) with their environment. For environment we consider the central/satellite division, the local density and the host dark matter halo mass. I will show that central and satellite galaxies show different quenching status even when stellar mass and halo mass are limited to a narrow range.

  * Title: Galaxies with debris of merger in MaNGA
  * Speaker: Songlin Li
  * Abstract: We crossmatch the galaxies in MaNGA MPL-8 with the Legacy Survey, which provides both g and r band images about one magnitude deeper than those in SDSS. We find 550 galaxies with debris of merger(tidal tails, shells, asymmetric halo or distorted feature with companions). In this sample, we find overall higher star formation rate(SFR) and higher stellar mass comparing with whole MaNGA sample. Moreover, there is a higher possibility for those galaxies with gas-stellar rotating misalignment to contain those debris of merger, while we don't see significant differences of the possibility between co-rotation and counter-rotation. This result corroborates the influence of merger on gas-stellar misalignment and supports the gas precession scenario, a scenario that external misaligned gas could precess to either co-rotation or counter-rotation with in situ stellar due to gravitational dynamical settling.  

  * Title: Where does the star formation in galaxies peak?
  * Speaker: Shiyin Shen
  * Abstract: We develop a new algorithm to identify the HII regions on the Ha maps of MaNGA galaxies. We will take the advantages of the large MaNGA galaxy sample and explore the statistical properties of these HII regions.

  * Title: Kinematic Field of Ionized Gas in Galaxy Pairs
  * Speaker: Shuai Feng
  * Abstract: We explore the kinematic field of ionized gas for galaxy pairs. We find the fraction of non-circular components of the kinematic field increase with decreasing projected separation. For the galaxy pair with a higher fraction of non-circular components, their SFR is significant enhanced than the control sample. While for the other galaxy pair (lower fraction of non-circular components), their SFR shows little enhancement.
