摘要:	摘要： We present the first interferometric HCN(J = 3-2) and HCO+(J = 3-2) maps in the circumnuclear region of NGC 1097, obtained with the Submillimeter Array. The goal is to study the characteristics of the dense gas associated with the starburst ring/Seyfert nucleus. With these transitions, we suppress the diffuse low density emission in the nuclear region. We detect and resolve the individual compact giant molecular cloud associations (GMAs) in the 1.4 kpc circumnuclear starburst ring and within the 350 pc nuclear region. The nucleus is brighter than the ring in both lines, and contributes ~20% and ~30% to the total detected HCO+(J = 3-2) and HCN(J = 3-2) flux, within the central 1.4 kpc. The intensity ratios of HCN(J = 3-2)/HCO+(J = 3-2) are roughly unity in the GMAs of the starburst ring. However, this ratio is up to ~2 in the nuclear region. From the HCN(J = 3-2)/HCN(J = 1-0) ratio of [< or =]0.2 in the nucleus, we infer that the nuclear HCN(J = 3-2) emission might be optically thin. The HCO+(J = 3-2) and HCN(J = 3-2) show correlations with super(12)CO(J = 3-2) and the 24 mu m emission. The tight correlations of HCN(J = 3-2), HCO+(J = 3-2), and 24 mu m emission in the starburst ring suggest that the dense molecular gas and the dust are from the same origins of star-forming regions. On the other hand, the HCN(J = 3-2) emission of the nucleus is significantly enhanced, indicating mechanisms other than star formation, such as active galactic nucleus activities. A self-consistent check of the fractional abundance enhanced by X-ray ionization chemistry of the nucleus is possible with our observations. 出版者： Bristol: IOP 出版日期： 2012-03-10 出處： The Astrophysical journal, 2012-03, Vol.747 (2), p.90-10 資源來源： Institute of Physics Journals 版權： 2015 INIST-CNRS 識別號： ISSN: 0004-637X 識別號： ISSN: 1538-4357 識別號： EISSN: 1538-4357 識別號： DOI: 10.1088/0004-637X/747/2/90 識別號： CODEN: ASJOAB
