摘要:
Aims. Star formation rates (SFRs), gas-phase metallicities, and stellar masses are crucial for studying galaxy evolution. The different relations resulting from these properties give insights into the complex interplay of gas inside galaxies and their evolutionary trajectory and current characteristics. We aim to characterize these relations at z similar to 0.3, corresponding to a 3-4 Gyr lookback time, to gather insight into the galaxies' redshift evolution. Methods. We utilized optical integral field spectroscopy data from 65 emission-line galaxies from the MUSE large program MAGPI at a redshift of 0.28 < z < 0.35 (average redshift of z similar to 0.3) and spanning a total stellar mass range of 8.2 < log(M*/M-circle dot) < 11.4. We measured emission line fluxes and stellar masses, allowing us to determine spatially resolved SFRs, gas-phase metallicities, and stellar mass surface densities. We derived the resolved star formation main sequence (rSFMS), resolved mass metallicity relation (rMZR), and resolved fundamental metallicity relation (rFMR) at z similar to 0.3, and compared them to results for the local Universe. Results. We find a relatively shallow rSFMS slope of similar to 0.425 +/- 0.014 compared to the expected slope at this redshift for an ordinary least square (OLS) fitting routine. For an orthogonal distance regression (ODR) routine, a much steeper slope of similar to 1.162 +/- 0.022 is measured. We confirm the existence of an rMZR at z similar to 0.3 with an average metallicity located similar to 0.03 dex above the local Universe's metallicity. Via partial correlation coefficients, evidence is found that the local metallicity is predominantly determined by the stellar mass surface density and has a weak secondary (inverse) dependence on the SFR surface density Sigma SFR. Additionally, a significant dependence of the local metallicity on the total stellar mass M* is found. Furthermore, we find that the stellar mass surface density Sigma* and M* have a significant influence in determining the strength with which Sigma SFR correlates with the local metallicity. We observe that at lower stellar masses, there is a tighter correlation between Sigma SFR and the gas-phase metallicity, resulting in a more pronounced rFMR.
