Physical Conditions and Star Formation Activity in the Intragroup Medium of Stephan's Quintet
read the original abstract
New multi-band observations of the famous compact group of galaxies Stephan's Quintet (SQ) are presented and analyzed. These include far infrared (FIR) images at 60$\mu m$ and 100$\mu m$ (ISOPHOT C-100 camera), radio continuum images at 1.4 GHz (VLA B-array) and 4.86 GHz (VLA C-array), and long-slit optical spectrographs (Palomar $200"$ telescope). With these new data, we aim to learn more about the X-ray/radio ridge in the middle of the intragroup medium (IGM) and the IGM starburst SQ-A, both are likely to be caused by the high speed collision ($\sim 900$ km s$^{-1}$) between the intruder galaxy NGC 7318b ($v = 5700$ km s$^{-1}$) and the IGM ($v = 6600$ km s$^{-1}$).
