摘要

The mass, metallicity, and star formation rate (SFR) of a galaxy are crucial parameters in understanding galaxy formation and evolution. However, the relation between these parameters, (i.e., the fundamental relation) is still a matter of debate for luminous infrared (IR) galaxies, which carry a bulk of the SFR budget of the universe at z similar to 1. We have investigated the relation among stellar mass, gas-phase oxygen abundance, and SFR of the Japanese infrared satellite AKARI-detected mid-IR galaxies at z similar to 0.88 in the AKARI north ecliptic pole deep field. We observed similar to 350 AKARI sources with Subaru/Fiber Multi Object Spectrograph near-IR spectrograph, and detected confirmed H alpha emission lines from 25 galaxies and expected Ha emission lines from 44 galaxies. The SFRH alpha, IR of our sample is almost constant (< SFRH alpha, IR > = similar to 25M(circle dot) yr(-1)) over the stellar mass range of our sample. Compared with main-sequence (MS) galaxies at a similar redshift range (z similar to 0.78), the average SFR of our detected sample is comparable for massive galaxies (similar to 10(10.58) M-circle dot), while higher by similar to 0.6 dex for less massive galaxies (similar to 10(10.05) M-circle dot). We measure metallicities from the [N II]/H alpha emission line ratio. We find that the mass-metallicity relation of our individually measured sources agrees with that for optically-selected star-forming galaxies at z similar to 0.1, while metallicities of stacked spectra agree with that of MS galaxies at z similar to 0.78. Considering the high SFR of individually measured sources, the fundamental metallicity relation (FMR) of the IR galaxies is different from that at z similar to 0.1. However, on the mass-metallicity plane, they are consistent with the MS galaxies, highlighting the higher SFR of the IR galaxies. This suggests that the evolutionary path of our infrared galaxies is different from that of MS galaxies. A possible physical interpretation includes that the star-formation activities of IR galaxies at z similar to 0.88 in our sample are enhanced by interactions and/or mergers of galaxies, but the inflow of metal-poor gas is not yet induced, keeping the metallicity intact.
