摘要:

我们提出了新的斯皮策太空望远镜观测猎户座OB 1协会的两个领域。本文报道了对OB 1a子协中约1000万年前25猎户座星系团的115个已确认成员和41个光度候选者以及OB 1b子协中500万年前星系团的106个已确认成员和65个光度候选者的IRAC/MIPS观测结果。猎户座25星系团的星盘频率为6%,而OB 1b亚星协的星盘频率为13%。结合IRAC,MIPS和2 MASS测光,我们把恒星轴承盘在几个类:恒星光学厚盘(II类系统),恒星与内部过渡盘(过渡盘候选人)和恒星与“进化的磁盘”,最后表现出较小的IRAC/MIPS过剩比II类系统。总之,我们在25猎户座聚集体中识别出1个过渡盘候选者,在OB 1b场中识别出3个过渡盘候选者;这代表了约10%的盘轴承恒星,表明过渡盘阶段可以相对较快。我们发现,磁盘的频率是一个函数的恒星质量,这表明一个最大的恒星周围的光谱类型M0。比较几个恒星群中IRAC波段的红外过量,我们发现,内部盘发射随恒星年龄衰减,显示出与各自的磁盘频率的相关性。在几个恒星群的IRAC和MIPS波段的盘发射表明,盘耗散发生在盘的内部区域更快。与辐射吸积盘模型的比较表明,在年轻恒星群中观察到的整体吸积率的下降不足以解释在IRAC带中观察到的年龄为500万年或更老的盘轴承恒星的弱盘发射。

英文摘要:

We present new Spitzer Space Telescope observations of two fields in the Orion OB1 association. We report here IRAC/MIPS observations for 115 confirmed members and 41 photometric candidates of the ~10 Myr 25 Orionis aggregate in the OB1a subassociation, and 106 confirmed members and 65 photometric candidates of the 5 Myr region located in the OB1b subassociation. The 25 Orionis aggregate shows a disk frequency of 6% while the field in the OB1b subassociation shows a disk frequency of 13%. Combining IRAC, MIPS and 2MASS photometry we place stars bearing disks in several classes: stars with optically thick disks (class II systems), stars with an inner transitional disks (transitional disk candidates) and stars with "evolved disks"; the last exhibit smaller IRAC/MIPS excesses than class II systems. In all, we identify 1 transitional disk candidate in the 25 Orionis aggregate and 3 in the OB1b field; this represents ~10% of the disk bearing stars, indicating that the transitional disk phase can be relatively fast. We find that the frequency of disks is a function of the stellar mass, suggesting a maximum around stars with spectral type M0. Comparing the infrared excess in the IRAC bands among several stellar groups we find that inner disk emission decays with stellar age, showing a correlation with the respective disk frequencies. The disk emission at the IRAC and MIPS bands in several stellar groups indicates that disk dissipation takes place faster in the inner region of the disks. Comparison with models of irradiated accretion disks, computed with several degrees of settling, suggests that the decrease in the overall accretion rate observed in young stellar groups is not sufficient to explain the weak disk emission observed in the IRAC bands for disk bearing stars with ages 5 Myr or older.
