CAK星群中的III沃尔夫-拉叶星

Population III Wolf-Rayet Stars in the CAK Regime

A. J. Onifer

摘要:

太阳金属丰度附近的沃尔夫-拉叶(WR)星被认为是由金属离子紫外谱线上的辐射压力驱动的。随着金属丰度的降低,线的不透明度也会降低,因此质量损失率也会降低。然而,由于WR大气的组成是由核心的燃烧产物决定的,因此WR星的线不透明度-因此质量损失率-有一个下限,即使在初始金属量为零的恒星中也是如此。本报告是试图使用CAK近似的修改版本来计算星族III型WO星的质量损失率的结果。我发现,n_e大于或等于10^{13} cm^{-3},Gamma在0.5到0.7之间,给出了最合理的结果,得到的质量损失率在2 × 10 ^{-9} M_sun yr^{-1}到3 × 10 ^{-8} M_sun yr^{-1}之间。

英文摘要:

Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars near solar metallicity are believed to be driven by radiation pressure on the UV spectral lines of metal ions. As the metallicity decreases so does the line opacity, therefore the mass-loss rate. However, since the composition of a WR atmosphere is determined by the burn products of the core, there is a lower limit on the line opacity -- and therefore the mass-loss rate -- of a WR star, even in a star with zero initial metallicity. This presentation is the result of attempt to calculate the mass-loss rate of a Population III-type WO star using a modified version of the CAK approximation. I find that n_e greater than or equal to 10^{13} cm^{-3} and Gamma between 0.5 and 0.7 give the most plausible results, with the resulting mass-loss rate between 2x10^{-9} M_sun yr^{-1} and 3x10^{-8} M_sun yr^{-1}.
