论文摘要
我们提出了一种自我传播m $ _ {*} $和sfr($ψ$)的方法,不确定性在截距,坡度和固有散射估算中,用于恒星形成星系的主要模型,其中$ψ=α=α +β$ m $ m $ m $ _ {*} + \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ n n} $ n} $ 0. 0,从$ z \ sim5 $的Nircam过滤器中设置的简单理想化模型,我们测试方法并与文献中的方法进行比较。通过将$ψ$估计为基于粉尘校正的MUV来简化$ψ$估计,可以帮助减少模板集对斜率和截距估计值的影响,但要起到偏向固有的散射估计值的作用。我们发现,仅宽带通量不能限制发射线的贡献,这意味着如果没有中等频段的约束,则需要在排放线上的强大先验。因此,在高红移时,发射线贡献了较高的宽带通量的较高分数,光度法拟合对短($ \ sim $ 10 MYR)的时间表对$ψ$变化敏感。以恒定(或上升)星形成历史记录(SFH)施加的年龄的先验,不允许人们在高红移时研究$σ$对M $ _ {*} $的可能依赖性。延迟的指数SFHS的先验较少,但在短时间内不考虑$ψ$变化,如果$σ$由于恒星形成的随机性而增加,则问题。与以前的历史相结合的具有当前恒星形成的简单SFH是合适的。我们表明,对于假设点源的简单曝光时间计算,灰尘含量较低,我们应该能够获得对log(m/m $ _ {\ odot} $)$ \ sim $ 8 at $ z \ sim5 $的无偏估计(m/m $ _ {\ odot} $),同时允许james webb space the,同时允许使用Star Choration的站点。
We present a method to self-consistently propagate M$_{*}$ and SFR ($Ψ$) uncertainties onto intercept, slope and intrinsic scatter estimates for a simple model of the main sequence of star forming galaxies where $Ψ= α+ β$M$_{*} + \mathcal{N}(0,σ)$. From simple idealised models set up with broad-band photometry from NIRCam filters at $z\sim5$, we test the method and compare to methods in the literature. Simplifying the $Ψ$ estimate by basing it on dust-corrected MUV can help to reduce the impact of template set degeneracies on slope and intercept estimates, but act to bias the intrinsic scatter estimate. We find that broad-band fluxes alone cannot constrain the contribution from emission lines, implying that strong priors on the emission-line contribution are required if no medium-band constraints are available. Therefore at high redshifts, where emission lines contribute a higher fraction of the broad-band flux, photometric fitting is sensitive to $Ψ$ variations on short ($\sim$ 10 Myr) timescales. Priors on age imposed with a constant (or rising) star formation history (SFH) do not allow one to investigate a possible dependence of $σ$ on M$_{*}$ at high redshifts. Delayed exponential SFHs have less constrained priors, but do not account for $Ψ$ variations on short timescales, a problem if $σ$ increases due to stochasticity of star formation. A simple SFH with current star formation decoupled from the previous history is appropriate. We show that, for simple exposure-time calculations assuming point sources, with low levels of dust, we should be able to obtain unbiased estimates of the main sequence down to log(M/M$_{\odot}$) $\sim$ 8 at $z\sim5$ with the James Webb Space Telescope while allowing for stochasticity of star formation.
