SDSS-IV MANGA: Spatially Resolved Star Formation Main Sequence and LI(N)ER Sequence

We present our study on the spatially resolved H_alpha and M_star relation for 536 star-forming and 424 quiescent galaxies taken from the MaNGA survey. We show that the star formation rate surface density (Sigma_SFR), derived based on the H_alpha emissions, is strongly correlated with the M_star surface density (Sigma_star) on kpc scales for star- forming galaxies and can be directly connected to the global star-forming sequence. This suggests that the global main sequence may be a consequence of a more fundamental relation on small scales. On the other hand, our result suggests that about 20% of quiescent galaxies in our sample still have star formation activities in the outer region with lower SSFR than typical star-forming galaxies. Meanwhile, we also find a tight correlation between Sigma_H_alpha and Sigma_star for LI(N)ER regions, named the resolved "LI(N)ER" sequence, in quiescent galaxies, which is consistent with the scenario that LI(N)ER emissions are primarily powered by the hot, evolved stars as suggested in the literature.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures.

In-out charge exchange measurements and 3D modelling of diagnostic thermal neutrals to study edge poloidal impurity asymmetries

A new method was developed to model the neutral population produced by the gas puff based charge exchange recombination spectroscopy systems at ASDEX Upgrade (AUG). With this method, the edge impurity density on the high field side (HFS) and low field side (LFS) can be obtained without the need to apply a neutral beam injection system. The neutral penetration needed for the calculation of the impurity density is obtained with a new gas puff module implemented in the FIDASIM code. The LFS impurity density profile evaluated with the new gas puff module matches the impurity density calculated with standard beam-based charge exchange diagnostics. Impurity temperature, rotation and density profiles at the HFS and LFS of an AUG H-mode discharge are presented. Edge impurity toroidal and poloidal flows show asymmetric structures. The impurity density asymmetries obtained with the new gas puff module are consistent with the observed flow structure
