摘要:

自1999年以来,利克天文台以一个月的周期对179颗红巨星进行径向速度测量。目前,每颗恒星已收集了约20-100次测量,精度为5至8米/秒。在观测到的恒星中,有145颗(80%)的视向速度(RV)变化大于20 m/s,其中43颗表现出明显的周期性。在这里,我们调查的机制,造成所观察到的径向速度变化。首先,我们搜索径向速度振幅和恒星的内在参数之间的相关性,在这种情况下,表面重力(log g)。其次,我们调查线轮廓的变化,并比较这些与理论预测。

英文摘要:

Since 1999, a radial velocity survey of 179 red giant stars is ongoing at Lick Observatory with a one month cadence. At present ~20-100 measurements have been collected per star with an accuracy of 5 to 8 m/s. Of the stars monitored, 145 (80%) show radial velocity (RV) variations at a level >20 m/s, of which 43 exhibit significant periodicities. Here, we investigate the mechanism causing the observed radial velocity variations. Firstly, we search for a correlation between the radial velocity amplitude and an intrinsic parameter of the star, in this case surface gravity (log g). Secondly, we investigate line profile variations and compare these with theoretical predictions.
