IC10中两种PDKEEPAAA候选物的光谱

Spectroscopy of two PN candidates in IC10

A. Y. Kniazev, S. A. Pustilnik, D. B. Zucker

摘要:

本文介绍了本星系群矮不规则星系IC 10中两个行星状星云(PN)候选者的首次光谱观测结果。使用几个光谱分类图,我们表明,最亮的PN候选人(PN 7)是不是PN,而是一个紧凑的HII区域组成的两个组件与低电子数密度。在排除这个PN候选之后,IC 10行星状星云光度函数截止值变得非常接近标准值。与编译的光谱数据为大量的河外PNE,我们分析了一系列的诊断图,以产生定量标准分离PNE从未解决的HII地区。我们表明,诊断图和派生的一套标准的帮助下,PNE可以区分HII地区的效率为99.6%。与所获得的光谱数据,我们确认,另一个,1.7等微弱PN候选人(PN 9)是一个真正的PN。我们认为,根据目前所有可用的PNe数据,IC 10位于距离725+63-33 kpc(距离模数(m-M)= 24.30+0.18-0.10)。

英文摘要:

We present the results of the first spectroscopic observations of two planetary nebula (PN) candidates in the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy IC10. Using several spectral classification diagrams we show that the brightest PN candidate (PN7) is not a PN, but rather a compact HII region consisting of two components with low electron number densities. After the rejection of this PN candidate, the IC10 planetary nebula luminosity function cutoff becomes very close to the standard value. With the compiled spectroscopic data for a large number of extragalactic PNe, we analyse a series of diagnostic diagrams to generate quantitative criteria for separating PNe from unresolved HII regions. We show that, with the help of the diagnostic diagrams and the derived set of criteria, PNe can be distinguished from HII regions with an efficiency of ~99.6%. With the obtained spectroscopic data we confirm that another, 1.7 mag fainter PN candidate (PN9) is a genuine PN. We argue that, based on all currently available PNe data, IC10 is located at a distance 725+63-33 kpc (distance modulus (m-M) = 24.30+0.18-0.10).
