We investigate the relationship between environment and the galaxy main sequence (the relationship between stellar mass and star formation rate) and also the relationship between environment and radio luminosity (P$_{\rm 1.4GHz}$) to shed new light on the effects of the environments on galaxies. We use the VLA-COSMOS 3 GHz catalogue that consists of star-forming galaxies (SFGs) and quiescent galaxies (AGN) in three different environments (field, filament, cluster) and for three different galaxy types (satellite, central, isolated). We perform for the first time a comparative analysis of the distribution of SFGs with respect to the main sequence (MS) consensus region from the literature, taking into account galaxy environment and using radio observations at 0.1 $\leq$ z $\leq$ 1.2. Our results corroborate that SFR is declining with cosmic time which is consistent with the literature. We find that the slope of the MS for different $z$ and M$_{*}$ bins is shallower than the MS consensus with a gradual evolution towards higher redshift bins, irrespective of environments. We see no SFR trends on both environments and galaxy type given the large errors. In addition, we note that the environment does not seem to be the cause of the flattening of MS at high stellar masses for our sample.

环境对 COSMOS 场中恒星形成星系的恒星形成活动和恒星质量的影响

我们研究了环境与星系主序带之间的关系(恒星质量与恒星形成率之间的关系)以及环境与射电光度之间的关系(P$_{\rm 1.4GHz}$),以揭示其影响星系上的环境。我们使用 VLA-COSMOS 3 GHz 目录,该目录由三种不同环境(场、灯丝、星团)中的恒星形成星系 (SFG) 和静止星系 (AGN) 和三种不同的星系类型(卫星、中央星系、孤立星系)组成。我们首次对文献中主序 (MS) 共有区域的 SFG 分布进行了比较分析,同时考虑了星系环境并使用了 0.1 $\leq$ z $\leq$ 1.2 的无线电观测. 我们的结果证实,恒星形成率随着宇宙时间而下降,这与文献一致。我们发现对于不同的 $z$ 和 M$_{*}$ 箱,MS 的斜率比 MS 共识更浅,并且无论环境如何,都会逐渐向更高的红移箱演变。鉴于大的误差,我们在环境和星系类型上都没有看到恒星形成率趋势。此外,我们注意到环境似乎不是我们样本在高恒星质量下 MS 变平的原因。
