巨大恒星的精确径向速度。III。光谱恒星参数

Precise radial velocities of giant stars. III. Spectroscopic stellar parameters

S. Hekker, J. Meléndez

摘要:

背景:Lick天文台正在对大约380颗G和K巨星进行径向速度调查。对于每颗恒星,我们都有一个高信噪比的模板光谱,我们用它来确定光谱恒星参数。目的:本文的目的是提供光谱恒星参数,即有效温度,表面重力,金属丰度和旋转速度为我们的G和K巨星样本。方法:由等效铁线宽度确定有效温度、表面重力和金属含量。旋转速度由中等谱线的半峰全宽(FWHM)确定。从我们的样本和Gray(1989)的样本之间共同的恒星中获得了FWHM和总加宽(旋转速度和宏观湍流)之间的校准。结果如下:我们得到的金属丰度基本上等于文献值,而有效温度和表面重力分别略高56 K和0.15 dex。我们的旋转速度与Gray(1989)获得的旋转速度相当,但略高于de Medeiros和Mayor(1999)获得的旋转速度,这与所使用的不同诊断方法一致。结论:我们能够以统一的方式确定大约380颗G和K巨星的光谱恒星参数(首次对112颗恒星进行光谱分析)。对于在文献中提供的明星,我们发现在本工作中确定的文献值和值之间的合理协议。此外,我们发现,伴星的金属丰度增强也可能对巨星有效,行星宿主巨星的金属丰度比我们的恒星总样本高出0.13 +/- 0.03 dex(即35 +/- 10%)。

英文摘要:

Context: A radial velocity survey of about 380 G and K giant stars is ongoing at Lick observatory. For each star we have a high signal to noise ratio template spectrum, which we use to determine spectroscopic stellar parameters. Aim: The aim of this paper is to present spectroscopic stellar parameters, i.e. effective temperature, surface gravity, metallicity and rotational velocity for our sample of G and K giant stars. Methods: Effective temperatures, surface gravities and metallicities are determined from the equivalent width of iron lines. Rotational velocities are determined from the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of moderate spectral lines. A calibration between the FWHM and total broadening (rotational velocity and macro turbulence) is obtained from stars in common between our sample and the sample from Gray (1989). Results: The metallicity we derive is essentially equal to the literature values, while the effective temperature and surface gravity are slightly higher by 56 K and 0.15 dex, respectively. Our rotational velocities are comparable with the ones obtained by Gray (1989), but somewhat higher than the ones obtained by de Medeiros & Mayor (1999), consistent with the different diagnostics used. Conclusions: We are able to determine spectroscopic stellar parameters for about 380 G and K giant stars in a uniform way (112 stars are being analysed spectroscopically for the first time). For stars available in the literature, we find reasonable agreement between literature values and values determined in the present work. In addition, we show that the metallicity enhancement of companion hosting stars might also be valid for giant stars, with the planet-hosting giants being 0.13 +/- 0.03 dex (i.e. 35 +/- 10%) more metal-rich than our total sample of stars.
