The SAMI Galaxy Survey: Gas velocity dispersions in low-z star-forming galaxies and the drivers of turbulence
We infer the intrinsic ionized gas kinematics for 383 star-forming galaxies across a range of integrated star formation rates (SFR ∈ [10−3, 102] M⊙ yr−1) at z ≲ 0.1 using a consistent 3D forward-modelling technique. The total sample is a combination of galaxies from the Sydney-AAO Multiobject Integr...

We infer the intrinsic ionized gas kinematics for 383 star-forming galaxies across a range of integrated star formation rates (SFR ∈ [10−3, 102] M⊙ yr−1) at z ≲ 0.1 using a consistent 3D forward-modelling technique. The total sample is a combination of galaxies from the Sydney-AAO Multiobject Integral field Spectrograph (SAMI) Galaxy survey and DYnamics of Newly Assembled Massive Objects survey. For typical low-z galaxies taken from the SAMI Galaxy Survey, we find the vertical velocity dispersion (σv,z) to be positively correlated with measures of SFR, stellar mass, H i gas mass, and rotational velocity. The greatest correlation is with SFR surface density (ΣSFR). Using the total sample, we find σv,z increases slowly as a function of integrated SFR in the range SFR ∈ [10−3, 1] M⊙ yr−1 from 17 ± 3 to 24 ± 5 km s−1 followed by a steeper increase up to σv,z ∼80 km s−1 for SFR ≳ 1 M⊙ yr−1.
