英文摘要We present measurements of the pairwise velocity dispersion (PVD) for different classes of galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). For a sample of about 200 000 galaxies with redshifts in the interval 0.01 < z < 0.3, and r-band magnitudes M-0.1r between - 16 and - 23, we study the dependence of the PVD on galaxy properties such as luminosity, stellar mass (M-*), colour (g - r), 4000-angstrom break strength (D-4000), concentration index (C), and stellar surface mass density (mu(*)). The luminosity dependence of the PVD is in good agreement with the results of Jing & Borner for the two-degree Field Galaxy Redshift Survey catalogue, once the photometric bandpass difference between the two surveys is taken into account. The value of sigma(12) measured at k = 1 h Mpc(-1) decreases as a function of increasing galaxy luminosity for galaxies fainter than L*, before increasing again for the most luminous galaxies in our sample. Each of the galaxy subsamples selected according to luminosity or stellar mass is divided into two further subsamples according to colour, D4000, C and mu(*). We find that galaxies with redder colours and higher D4000, C, and mu(*) values have larger PVDs on all scales and at all luminosities/stellar masses. The dependence of the PVD on the parameters related to recent star formation ( colour, D4000) is stronger than on the parameters related to galaxy structure (C, mu(*)), especially on small scales and for faint galaxies. The reddest galaxies and galaxies with high surface mass densities and intermediate concentrations have the highest pairwise peculiar velocities, that is, these move in the strongest gravitational fields. We conclude that the faint red population located in rich clusters is responsible for the high PVD values that are measured for low-luminosity galaxies on small scales.
