Abstract:Using two volume-limited samples above and below the value of $M_{r}^{ *}$ constructed from the Main galaxy sample of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 8 (SDSS DR8), we investigate correlations between galaxy morphology and star formation rate (SFR), specific star formation rate (SSFR) and stellar mass at different environmental density levels. For each sample, three subsamples at both density extremes and at the median density are selected. We found that examining either of our two volume-limited Main samples leads to the same conclusion: at different environmental density levels, SFR, SSFR and stellar mass are strongly correlated with galaxy morphology, which shows that SFR, SSFR and stellar mass of a galaxy depend on its environment as well as its morphology.
