ARP 220: VELOCITY vs STELLAR AND GAS STRUCTURES STELLAR STRUCTURE GAS STRUCTURE STELLAR STRUCTURE - Peak-to-peak V of 600 km/s - Vel. Deviations of 300 km/s - Vel gradients of 50 km/s/kpc - Associated with the stellar envelope - Average velocities of E and W lobes: +8 and -79 km/s - Not dominated by central, starburst-driven wind - Average velocities of E and W lobes consistent with merger simulations (to first order)

14
Velocity field on scales of few to several kpc does not correspond in general to that of an ordered, rotating system Peak-to-peak velocity amplitudes of up to 600 km/s are detected in tidally induced structures: tails and extranuclear star-forming regions The peak of the velocity dispersion in 60% of the ULIRGs studied does not coincide in position with the stellar nucleus Velocity dispersions associated with extranuclear, diffuse ionized gas are large: 150 to 250 km/s Velocity dispersion associated with the less massive, secondary nucleus in pairs is not distinguishable from that of the extended, diffuse gas Extended ionized gas velocities on scales of few to several kpc are not wind-related but merger-induced 2D KINEMATICS OF ULIRGS: SUMMARY

MASS TRACER: CENTRAL VELOCITY AMPLITUDE : cold gas : stars IF ROTATION: MASS V 2 R HOWEVER VELOCITY AMPLITUDE DOES NOT TRACE ROTATION, IN GENERAL VELOCITY AMPLITUDE IS NOT A RELIABLE TRACER OF DYNAMICAL MASS

IMPLICATIONS FOR HIGH-Z GALAXIES: SFR and MASS LIRGS and ULIRGs carry a large fraction oof SF at z> 1 SPITZER and HERSCHEL most likely to detect LIRGs at high-z KEY PARAMETERS SFR AND DYNAMICAL MASS H line Strong differential extinction effects Decoupled ionized & stellar structures INTEGRAL FIELD SPECTROSCOPY Complex 2D velocity field H line shifts into the near and mir-IR (1 to 10 micron) for z> 1 near-IR multi-slit spectrographs NOT GOOD ENOUGH MISLEADING DERIVATIONS OF SFRs AND MASSES IN HIGH-Z LUMINOUS DUST-ENSHROUDED STARBURST

IMPLICATIONS FOR HIGH-Z GALAXIES: SUMMARY IF most high-z galaxies are merging systems such as low-z ULIRGs THEN H velocity amplitudes should not be used in general to estimate M dyn H central velocity dispersions are a more reliable tracer of the M dyn, provided the true nucleus is known from near-IR imaging H -based star formation rates can be underestimated, factors 2 or 3 in some systems, even if corrected by strong differential extinction effects Long-slit spectroscopy could give misleading results.
