摘要:

2005年2月至3月期间,利用MOST(恒星微变和振荡)卫星在34.4天内获得了高精度和几乎不间断的天琴座RR型恒星AQ Leo的光学光度测量。狮子座AQ是第一颗已知的双模式RR型Lycoproliferator(RRd星)。在发现它30年后,MOST的观测显示狮子座AQ至少有42个频率振荡,其中32个是径向基模和它的第一泛音的线性组合(最多六阶)。这些模式的周期变化的证据中发现的数据。其他固有频率可能代表一个额外的非径向脉动模式及其谐波(加上线性组合),保证理论建模。检测到的频率数量前所未有,振幅精度可达毫微克,这也为测试RR Lyrics振荡器中模式增长和饱和的非线性理论提供了机会。

英文摘要:

Highly precise and nearly uninterrupted optical photometry of the RR Lyrae star AQ Leo was obtained with the MOST (Microvariability & Oscillations of STars) satellite over 34.4 days in February-March 2005. AQ Leo was the first known double-mode RR Lyrae pulsator (RRd star). Three decades after its discovery, MOST observations have revealed that AQ Leo oscillates with at least 42 frequencies, of which 32 are linear combinations (up to the sixth order) of the radial fundamental mode and its first overtone. Evidence for period changes of these modes is found in the data. The other intrinsic frequencies may represent an additional nonradial pulsation mode and its harmonics (plus linear combinations) which warrant theoretical modeling. The unprecedented number of frequencies detected with amplitudes down to millimag precision also presents an opportunity to test nonlinear theories of mode growth and saturation in RR Lyrae pulsators.
