Impact of supernova feedback on the Tully-Fisher relation
Context. Recent observational results have found a bend in the Tully-Fisher relation in such a way that low-mass systems lie below the linear relation described by more massive galaxies. Aims. We intend to investigate the origin of the observed features in the stellar and baryonic Tully-Fisher relat...

Recent observational results have found a bend in the Tully-Fisher relation in such a way that low-mass systems lie below the linear relation described by more massive galaxies. Aims.

We found that supernova feedback is a fundamental process for reproducing the observed trends in the stellar Tully-Fisher relation.

In the case of the baryonic Tully-Fisher relation, we also detect a weaker tendency for smaller systems to lie below the linear relation described by larger ones. This behaviour arises as a result of the more efficient action of supernovae in the regulation of the star formation process and in the triggering of powerful galactic outflows in shallower potential wells, which may heat up and/or expel part of the gas reservoir. © 2010 ESO. 2010 https://bibliotecadigital.exactas.uba.ar/collection/paper/document/paper_00046361_v519_n9_p_DeRossi http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12110/paper_00046361_v519_n9_p_DeRossi |
