The Clumpy Structure of Five Star-bursting Dwarf Galaxies in the MaNGA Survey

The star-forming clumps in star-bursting dwarf galaxies provide valuable insights into understanding the evolution of dwarf galaxies.In this paper,we focus on five star-bursting dwarf galaxies featuring off-centered clumps in the Mapping Nearby Galaxies at Apache Point Observatory survey.Using the stellar population synthesis software Fitting Analysis using Differential evolution Optimization,we obtain the spatially resolved distribution of the star formation history,which allows us to construct the g-band images of the five galaxies at different ages.These images can help us to probe the evolution of the morphological structures of these galaxies.While images of a stellar population older than 1 Gyr are typically smooth,images of a stellar population younger than 1 Gyr reveal significant clumps,including multiple clumps which appear at different locations and even different ages.To study the evolutionary connections of these five galaxies to other dwarf galaxies before their star-forming clumps appear,we construct the images of the stellar populations older than three age nodes,and define them to be the images of the"host"galaxies.We find that the properties such as the central surface brightness and the effective radii of the hosts of the five galaxies are in between those of dwarf ellipticals(dEs)and dwarf irregulars(dIrrs),with two clearly more similar to dEs and one more similar to dIrrs.Among the five galaxies,8257-3704 is particularly interesting,as it shows a previous starburst event that is not quite visible from its gri image,but only visible from images of the stellar population at a few hundred million years.The star-forming clump associated with this event may have appeared at around 600 Myr ago and disappeared at around 40 Myr ago.

Correction Factors of the Measurement Errors of the LAMOST-LRS Stellar Parameters

We aim to investigate the propriety of stellar parameter errors of the official data release of the LAMOST lowresolution spectroscopy(LRS)survey.We diagnose the errors of radial velocity(RV),atmospheric parameters([Fe/H],Teff,logg)andα-enhancement([α/M])for the latest data release version of DR7,including 6,079,235effective spectra of 4,546,803 stars.Based on the duplicate observational sample and comparing the deviation of multiple measurements to their given errors,we find that,in general,the error of[α/M]is largely underestimated,and the error of RV is slightly overestimated.We define a correction factor k to quantify these misestimations and correct the errors to be expressed as proper internal uncertainties.Using this self-calibration technique,we find that the k-factors significantly vary with the stellar spectral types and the spectral signal-to-noise ratio(S/N).Particularly,we reveal a strange but evident trend between k-factors and error themselves for all five stellar parameters.Larger errors tend to have smaller k-factor values,i.e.,they were more overestimated.After the correction,we recreate and quantify the tight correlations between S/N and errors,for all five parameters,while these correlations have dependence on spectral types.It also suggests that the parameter errors from each spectrum should be corrected individually.Finally,we provide the error correction factors of each derived parameter of each spectrum for the entire LAMOST-LRS DR7 and plan to update them for the later data releases.

Comparison of Different Fishery Statistical Systems and Recommendations for China

With the integration of global economy and rapid development of information technology,China's economic and trade exchange will be further strengthened and social economic phenomenon will become more and more complex. Therefore,understanding fishery statistical systems and making comparative analysis become particularly important for formulating fishery development and economic management policies.Through comparative study on statistical systems,organization,statistical laws and regulations,statistical indicators,and statistical management and methods of different countries,this paper is intended to provide reference for improving China's fishery statistical system and operating mechanism.
