HD 32297碎片盘中的一个温暖尘埃环

A Ring of Warm Dust in the HD 32297 Debris Disk

Michael P. Fitzgerald, Paul G. Kalas, James R. Graham

摘要:

我们报告了一个温暖的尘埃环的边缘上的磁盘周围的HD 32297与Gemini-N/米歇尔中红外成像仪检测。我们的N '波段图像显示了与散射光盘方向一致的细长结构。Fnu(11.2 μ m)= 49.9+/-2.1 mJy的通量明显高于28.2+/-0.6 mJy的光球。减去恒星的点扩散函数,显示出一个双叶结构,峰值距离恒星0.5”-0.6”。分析的恒星组成的SED建议的光谱类型晚于A0,与通常引用的文献值。我们适合的三维,单一尺寸的颗粒模型的光学薄尘环,我们的图像和SED使用马尔可夫链蒙特卡罗算法在贝叶斯框架。最适合的有效颗粒尺寸是亚微米,这表明相同的尘埃种群是造成大部分散射光的原因。温暖尘埃的内边界位于距离恒星0.5”-0.7”(~65天文单位)处,这与0.5”以内的散射光不对称性的外边界近似共空间。添加提供60 μ m通量的一部分的较大、较冷颗粒的单独组分改善了模型拟合的保真度和与散射光亮度分布的斜率的一致性。先前对恒星年龄的间接估计(约3千万年)表明尘埃是由碎片组成的。在我们的模型中的峰值垂直光学深度(~0.3-1 × 1 e-2)意味着颗粒-颗粒碰撞可能在尘埃动力学和演化中发挥重要作用。如果亚微米颗粒是冰状和多孔的,它们就可以在辐射压力爆发后幸存下来。同样,推测的温暖温度(130-200 K)表明,冰升华可能在截断内盘中发挥作用。

英文摘要:

We report the detection of a ring of warm dust in the edge-on disk surrounding HD 32297 with the Gemini-N/MICHELLE mid-infrared imager. Our N'-band image shows elongated structure consistent with the orientation of the scattered-light disk. The Fnu(11.2 um) = 49.9+/-2.1 mJy flux is significantly above the 28.2+/-0.6 mJy photosphere. Subtraction of the stellar point spread function reveals a bilobed structure with peaks 0.5"-0.6" from the star. An analysis of the stellar component of the SED suggests a spectral type later than A0, in contrast to commonly cited literature values. We fit three-dimensional, single-size grain models of an optically thin dust ring to our image and the SED using a Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm in a Bayesian framework. The best-fit effective grain sizes are submicron, suggesting the same dust population is responsible for the bulk of the scattered light. The inner boundary of the warm dust is located 0.5"-0.7" (~65 AU) from the star, which is approximately cospatial with the outer boundary of the scattered-light asymmetry inward of 0.5". The addition of a separate component of larger, cooler grains that provide a portion of the 60 um flux improves both the fidelity of the model fit and consistency with the slopes of the scattered-light brightness profiles. Previous indirect estimates of the stellar age (~30 Myr) indicate the dust is composed of debris. The peak vertical optical depths in our models (~0.3-1 x 1e-2) imply that grain-grain collisions likely play a significant role in dust dynamics and evolution. Submicron grains can survive radiation pressure blow-out if they are icy and porous. Similarly, the inferred warm temperatures (130-200 K) suggest that ice sublimation may play a role in truncating the inner disk.
