Study of the dependence of the star formation rate in the nuclear regions of 39 Kazarian galaxies on their integral parameters

A statistical study of the dependence of the star formation rate in the nuclear regions of 39 Kazarian galaxies on the integral parameters of these galaxies is carried out on the basis of spectra from SDSS DR6. The value of SFR/kpc² for our sample lies in the range 0.013÷2.04M_⨀ year^‑1kpc^‑2 (with the maximum value of 2.04 corresponding to the Kaz 98 (merger)). It is found that the surface density of the rate of star formation correlates positively with the bar structure parameter and EW(Hα), and that, for spiral galaxies of early morphological types, SFR/kpc² is greater than for the later types. It is shown that the color B-R for the galaxies and the color (u ‑ g)_nucl for the nuclear region correlate positively with the total absorption A(Hα) in the Ha line for the nuclear region. The average value of A(Hα) for our samples is found to be A(Hα)=1.3±0.09 magnitudes.
