最热白矮星的HST光谱

HST Spectroscopy of the Hottest White Dwarfs

Thomas Rauch, Klaus Werner

摘要:

光谱分析需要观察连续电离阶段的谱线,以评估(特定物种的)电离平衡,这是有效温度的敏感指标。由于有效温度高达100000 K的恒星在极紫外(EUV)波长范围内具有最大通量,并且由于高度电离,大多数金属线都在紫外(UV)范围内发现。因此,高信噪比和高分辨率紫外光谱是精确分析的先决条件。因此,我们使用了哈勃太空望远镜(HST)上的暗天体光谱仪(FOS),戈达德高分辨率光谱仪(GHRS)和太空望远镜成像光谱仪(STIS),以获得合适的数据。我们提出了国家的最先进的分析最热的(前)白矮星的NLTE模型的气氛,其中包括金属线覆盖的所有元素,从氢到镍。

英文摘要:

Spectral analysis needs the observation of lines of successive ionization stages in order to evaluate the ionization equilibrium (of a particular species) which is a sensitive indicator for the effective temperature. Since stars with effective temperatures as high as 100000 K have their flux maximum in the extreme ultraviolet (EUV) wavelength range and due to the high degree of ionization, most of the metal lines are found in the ultraviolet (UV) range. Thus, high-S/N and high-resolution UV spectra are a pre-requisite for a precise analysis. Consequently, we employed the Faint Object Spectrograph (FOS), the Goddard High Resolution Spectrograph (GHRS), and the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) aboard the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) in order to obtain suitable data. We present state-of-the-art analyses of the hottest (pre-) white dwarfs by means of NLTE model atmospheres which include the metal-line blanketing of all elements from hydrogen to nickel.
