$ρ$蛇夫座星周尘埃的亚毫米观测

A Submillimeter View of Circumstellar Dust Disks in $ρ$ Ophiuchus

Sean M. Andrews, Jonathan P. Williams

摘要:

我们提出了新的多波长亚毫米连续测量的拱星尘埃周围的$ρ$蛇夫座暗云的48颗年轻恒星。补充以前的1.3毫米观测的额外99个对象从文献中,磁盘质量和亚毫米颜色的统计分布进行了计算和比较,在金牛座御夫座地区。这些基本的亚毫米波性质的年轻恒星物体在这两种环境中被证明是基本相同的。与金牛座的对应物一样,$ρ$ Oph拱星尘埃的性质被证明是沿着基于红外光谱能量分布的经验演化序列演化的。结合$ρ$ Oph和金牛座II类样本(173个源)用于设定基本外盘特征的基准值:M_disk ~ 0.005太阳质量,M_disk/M_star ~ 1%,$α$ ~ 2(其中$F_ν \propto ν^α$在350微米和1.3毫米之间)。这些数字的精确度是在行星形成过程的最早阶段大量固体颗粒生长的背景下解决的。有一些间接的证据表明,从亚毫米波辐射推断的盘质量可能被低估了一个数量级。

英文摘要:

We present new multiwavelength submillimeter continuum measurements of the circumstellar dust around 48 young stars in the $ρ$ Ophiuchus dark clouds. Supplemented with previous 1.3 mm observations of an additional 99 objects from the literature, the statistical distributions of disk masses and submillimeter colors are calculated and compared to those in the Taurus-Auriga region. These basic submillimeter properties of young stellar objects in both environments are shown to be essentially identical. As with their Taurus counterparts, the $ρ$ Oph circumstellar dust properties are shown to evolve along an empirical evolution sequence based on the infrared spectral energy distribution. The combined $ρ$ Oph and Taurus Class II samples (173 sources) are used to set benchmark values for basic outer disk characteristics: M_disk ~ 0.005 solar masses, M_disk/M_star ~ 1%, and $α$ ~ 2 (where $F_ν \propto ν^α$ between 350 microns and 1.3 mm). The precision of these numbers are addressed in the context of substantial solid particle growth in the earliest stages of the planet formation process. There is some circumstantial evidence that disk masses inferred from submillimeter emission may be under-estimated by up to an order of magnitude.
