摘要:

我们目前的高角分辨率观测与凯克干涉仪,高色散光谱观测与凯克/NIRSPEC,和近红外光度观测PAIRITEL的11个太阳型金牛座T星的样本在9个系统。我们使用这些观测来探测这些年轻恒星的1 AU内的拱星物质,测量拱星与恒星的通量比和2.2微米发射的角尺寸尺度。我们的样本跨越了一系列的恒星光度和质量吸积率,允许调查内部磁盘属性和恒星或吸积属性之间的潜在相关性。我们认为,该机制的尘埃内盘被截断可能取决于吸积率的源,在对象与低吸积率,恒星磁层可能会截断磁盘,而升华可能截断尘埃盘周围的源具有较高的吸积率。我们还包括在我们的样本对象,已知是高度可变的(基于以前的光度和光谱观测),并为几个来源,我们获得了多个时期的光谱和干涉数据,辅以近红外光度监测,寻找内部磁盘的变化。虽然在一些源中观测到随时间变化的速度和吸积率,但没有发现内部盘脉动的有力证据。

英文摘要:

We present high angular resolution observations with the Keck Interferometer, high dispersion spectroscopic observations with Keck/NIRSPEC, and near-IR photometric observations from PAIRITEL of a sample of 11 solar-type T Tauri stars in 9 systems. We use these observations to probe the circumstellar material within 1 AU of these young stars, measuring the circumstellar-to-stellar flux ratios and angular size scales of the 2.2 micron emission. Our sample spans a range of stellar luminosities and mass accretion rates, allowing investigation of potential correlations between inner disk properties and stellar or accretion properties. We suggest that the mechanism by which the dusty inner disk is truncated may depend on the accretion rate of the source; in objects with low accretion rates, the stellar magnetospheres may truncate the disks, while sublimation may truncate dusty disks around sources with higher accretion rates. We have also included in our sample objects that are known to be highly variable (based on previous photometric and spectroscopic observations), and for several sources, we obtained multiple epochs of spectroscopic and interferometric data, supplemented by near-IR photometric monitoring, to search for inner disk variability. While time-variable veilings and accretion rates are observed in some sources, no strong evidence for inner disk pulsation is found.
