Correction to: MaNGA AGN dwarf galaxies (MAD) – I. A new sample of AGNs in dwarf galaxies with spatially-resolved spectroscopy

We report an error in the way stellar masses ( M * ) and star formation rates (SFRs) were computed in the paper MaNGA AGN dwarf galaxies (MAD) -I.A new sample of AGNs in dwarf galaxies with spatially-resolved spectroscopy (Mezcua & Dom nguez S nchez 2024 ).The stellar masses were taken from the NASA-Sloan Atlas (NSA catalog) version v1 0 1, which is the one used by MaNGA for its targeting 1 , while the SFRs were taken from the MaNGA dataanalysis pipeline 2 (DAP).In both cases the values are given in units of h 2 , where h = 1, so in Mezcua & Dom nguez S nchez ( 2024 ) we multiplied the values of M * and SFR per h 2 = 0.73 2 to convert them to the -CDM cosmology with parameters H 0 = 73 km s -1 Mpc -1 , = 0 .73 and m = 0 .27 adopted in the paper.Both the M * and SFRs should ho we v er hav e been divided by h 2 = 0.73 2 .When applying this correction, the values of M * and SFRs differ from those reported in Mezcua & Dom nguez S nchez ( 2024 ).We explain here the consequent modifications to the results reported in Mezcua & Dom nguez S nchez ( 2024 ).With the corrected stellar masses, the number of dwarf galaxies selected as having M * < 3 10 9 M drops from the 3400 sources reported in Mezcua & Dom nguez S nchez ( 2024 ) to 1131 sources.To preserve the statistics reported in Mezcua & Dom nguez S nchez ( 2024 ) while ensuring a robust analysis, we adopt the widely-used dwarf stellar mass threshold of M * 10 10 M (e.g.Manzano-King & Canalizo 2020 ;Siudek, Mezcua & Krywult 2023 ;Bichang'a et al. 2024 ).This results in 3306 dwarf galaxies, whose distribution of stellar masses is shown in Fig. 1 .Of these, 2292 galaxies have strong signs of AGN ionisation, defined as having n agn-total 20, where n agn-total is the total number of spaxels classified as either AGN, AGN-WHAN, or SF-AGN according to the emission line diagnostic classification of Mezcua & Dom nguez S nchez ( 2024 ).
