The spectral properties of a large sample of low surface brightness disk galaxies

We present the spectral properties of a large sample of nearly face-on low surface brightness (LSB) disk galaxies selected from the SDSS-DR4 main galaxy sample. About 12,282 LSB galaxies have been selected from the photometry database with their B-band central sur face brightness μo(B) ranging from 22 to 24.5 mag arcsec-2. About 7000 of such LSBGs have measured emission lines(OⅡ3727,OⅢ5007,Hβ,Hα,N Ⅱ6583)with the S/N ratio greater than 5σ.Their spectral diagnostic diagram ofNⅡ/Fα vs.OⅢ/Hβ shows that~89% of them are star-forming galaxies,and~11% could be classified as AGNs.The relations of μ0(B) vs.12+log(O/H) and μ0(B)vs ,stellar masses M* of these star-forming LSB galaxies show that their O/H and M* increase following the increasing μ0(B).The majority of these LSBGs are on the higher branch of metallicity.
