摘要:

为了扩大色星等图中星震学的应用范围,我们组织了一次测光活动,以寻找球状星团M4中巨星类似太阳振荡的证据。其目的是检测梳状p模式的结构特征,太阳般的振荡的振幅谱。这20多颗主要的目标星位于撞击星的区域,光度在50-140 Lsun之间。我们收集了6160帧CCD图像,提取了约14000颗恒星的光变曲线。我们获得了K巨星的高质量光变曲线,但没有检测到明显的振荡信号。即使在非常拥挤的区域,如M4的核心,也可以实现高精度的差分测光。K巨星中可能存在类似太阳的振荡,但振幅低于经典标度定律的预测。

英文摘要:

To expand the range in the colour-magnitude diagram where asteroseismology can be applied, we organized a photometry campaign to find evidence for solar-like oscillations in giant stars in the globular cluster M4. The aim was to detect the comb-like p-mode structure characteristic for solar-like oscillations in the amplitude spectra. The two dozen main target stars are in the region of the bump stars and have luminosities in the range 50-140 Lsun. We collected 6160 CCD frames and light curves for about 14000 stars were extracted. We obtain high quality light curves for the K giants, but no clear oscillation signal is detected. High precision differential photometry is possible even in very crowded regions like the core of M4. Solar-like oscillations are probably present in K giants, but the amplitudes are lower than classical scaling laws predict.
