FAST Ultra-Deep Survey (FUDS): the star formation histories of FUDS0 galaxies
read the original abstract
We present the ultraviolet, optical and infrared counterparts of 128 galaxies detected in neutral hydrogen (HI) in the FAST Ultra-Deep Survey (FUDS) field 0 (FUDS0). HI mass upper limits are also calculated for 134 non-detections in the field. Stellar masses ($M_*$), star formation rates (SFRs) and star formation histories are computed by fitting spectral energy distributions (SEDs) using ProSpect. The results show that HI-selected galaxies prefer recent long-lasting, but mild star formation activity, while HI non-detections have earlier and more intense star formation activity. Based on their distribution on the SFR versus $M_*$ diagram, the typical evolution of HI-selected galaxies follows three distinct stages: (i) Early stage: the total SFR increases, though the specific SFR (sSFR) decreases from 10$^{-8}$ to 10$^{-9}$ yr$^{-1}$; (ii) Mass accumulation stage: the SFR is steady, and stellar mass increase linearly with time; (iii) Quenching stage: star formation activity quenches on a rapid timescale and at constant stellar mass. 37 non-detections are located on star-forming main sequence, but are not detected in HI due to low sensitivity close to field edges or close to strong radio frequency interference. Comparisons with the existing optical, optically-selected HI, and HI catalogs show a good agreement with respect to measured $M_*$ and SFR, with minor discrepancies due to selection effects. The ongoing full FUDS survey will help us better explore the evolutionary stages of HI galaxies through a larger sample.
