摘要

We performed (CO)-C-12(J = 1-0) (hereafter, CO) observations toward 12 normal star-forming galaxies with stellar masses of M-star = 10(10.6)-10(11.3) M-circle dot at z = 0.1-0.2 with the 45 m telescope at the Nobeyama Radio Observatory. The samples were selected with D-n(4000), that is, the strength of the 4000 angstrom break, instead of the commonly used far-infrared (FIR) flux. We successfully detected the CO emissions from eight galaxies with signal-to-noise ratio larger than three, demonstrating the effectiveness of the D-n(4000)-based sample selection. For the first time, we find a tight anti-correlation between D-n(4000) and molecular gas fraction (f(mol)) using literature data of nearby galaxies in which the galaxies with more fuel for star formation have younger stellar populations. We find that our CO-detected galaxies at z similar to 0.1-0.2 also follow the same relation as nearby galaxies. This implies that the galaxies evolve along this D-n(4000)-f(mol) relation, and that D-n(4000) seems to be able to be used as a proxy for fmol, which requires many time-consuming observations. Based on the comparison with the model calculation with a population synthesis code, we find that star formation from metal enriched gas and its quenching in the early time are necessary to reproduce galaxies with large D-n(4000) and non-zero gas fraction.
