在分光事件期间船底座η星的伴星上的吸积。第五章红外线的衰落

Accretion onto the Companion of Eta Carinae During the Spectroscopic Event. V. the Infrared Decline

Amit Kashi, Noam Soker

摘要:

我们建议,在光谱事件期间,从大规模的双星系统Eta Carinae的近红外线通量的下降可能被解释为吸积质量,吸收来自二级恒星的辐射,并减少了加热的尘埃,负责近红外线发射。这个双星系统的轨道周期为2024天,离心率为e~0.9。在每一个近星点的通道附近,几个波段的发射会下降几个星期,这就是所谓的光谱事件。在吸积模型的光谱事件的次级恒星吸积质量从主要的风约10周附近的每一个近星通道。物质主要在赤道面内吸积。圆盘和它的风阻挡了次级辐射加热不在对称轴上狭窄圆锥内的尘埃。这,我们建议,可能会解释在近红外通量下降发生在每个光谱事件的开始。我们还认为,在事件发生前的近红外的增加可能是由增强的热(T~1700 K)的尘埃形成在碰撞区域的风从两颗星。这些尘埃位于赤道面的60度范围内,其中大部分在吸积阶段无法被次级粒子加热。

英文摘要:

We propose that the decline in the near-IR flux from the massive binary system Eta Carinae during the spectroscopic event might be explained by accreted mass that absorbs the radiation from the secondary star, and by that reduces the heating of the dust that is responsible for the near-IR emission. This binary system has an orbital period of 2024 days and eccentricity of e~0.9. The emission in several bands declines for several weeks near every periastron passages, in what is termed the spectroscopic event. In the accretion model for the spectroscopic event the secondary star accretes mass from the primary's wind for ~10 weeks near every periastron passage. The mass is accreted mainly in the equatorial plane. The disk and its wind block the secondary's radiation from heating dust that does not reside within narrow cones along the symmetry axis. This, we propose, might explain the decline in the near-IR flux occurring at the beginning of each spectroscopic event. We also argue that the increase in the near-IR prior to the event might be accounted for by enhanced hot (T~1700 K) dust formation in the collision region of the winds from the two stars. This dust resides within ~60 degrees from the equatorial plane, and most of it cannot be heated by the secondary during the accretion phase.
