摘要:

LS V +4621是行星状星云Sh 2-216的DAO型中央恒星。我们执行一个全面的光谱分析的高分辨率,高S/N紫外线观测获得的FUSE和STIS船上的HST,以及光谱的LS V +4621通过国家的最先进的NLTE模式大气技术,以比较其光球性质的理论预测从恒星演化理论,以及从扩散计算。根据N Ⅳ- NV、O Ⅳ- O Ⅵ、Si Ⅳ- Si Ⅴ和Fe Ⅴ- Fe Ⅶ电离平衡,我们高精度地确定了有效温度为95 ± 2 kK。表面重力为log g = 6.9 +/- 0.2。光谱距离d = 224 + 46/-58 pc和LS V +4621的视差距离d = 129 + 6/-5 pc之间出现了一个无法解释的差异。我们首次在富氢中心恒星的光谱中发现了Mg IV和Ar VI吸收线,并确定了Mg和Ar的丰度以及铁族元素(Cr,Mn,Fe,Co和Ni)的丰度。在模型大气计算中,随着对金属不透明的现实处理,直到铁族,所谓的巴耳末线问题(在忽略金属线覆盖的模型中发现的)消失了。通过NLTE模型大气的光谱分析目前已经达到了高度的复杂性,这在很大程度上是由于缺乏可靠的原子数据和准确的谱线展宽表。应该作出巨大努力来改善这种情况。

英文摘要:

LS V +4621 is the DAO-type central star of the planetary nebula Sh 2-216. We perform a comprehensive spectral analysis of high-resolution, high-S/N ultraviolet observations obtained with FUSE and STIS aboard the HST as well as the optical spectrum of LS V +4621 by means of state-of-the-art NLTE model-atmosphere techniques in order to compare its photospheric properties to theoretical predictions from stellar evolution theory as well as from diffusion calculations. From the N IV - NV, O IV - O VI, Si IV - Si V, and Fe V - Fe VII ionization equilibria, we determined an effective temperature of 95 +/- 2 kK with high precision. The surface gravity is log g = 6.9 +/- 0.2. An unexplained discrepancy appears between the spectroscopic distance d = 224 +46/-58 pc and the parallax distance d = 129 +6/-5 pc of LS V +4621. For the first time, we have identified Mg IV and Ar VI absorption lines in the spectrum of a hydrogen-rich central star and determined the Mg and Ar abundances as well as the individual abundances of iron-group elements (Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni). With the realistic treatment of metal opacities up to the iron group in the model-atmosphere calculations, the so-called Balmer-line problem (found in models that neglect metal-line blanketing) vanishes. Spectral analysis by means of NLTE model atmospheres has presently arrived at a high level of sophistication, which is now hampered largely by the lack of reliable atomic data and accurate line-broadening tables. Strong efforts should be made to improve upon this situation.
