摘要:

本文介绍了用哈勃太空望远镜上的高级巡天照相机(ACS)对银河系球状星团欧米茄Cen进行的深度和精确的测光(F435 W,F625 W,F658 N)。我们确定了约6,500颗白矮星(WD)候选星,并将它们的径向分布与主序星(MS)的径向分布进行了比较。我们发现了一个温和的证据,表明年轻的WD(0.1 < t < 0.6 Gyr)与25 <F435 W < 26.5等的MS星相比,中心集中度较低。

英文摘要:

We present deep and accurate photometry (F435W, F625W, F658N) of the Galactic Globular Cluster Omega Cen collected with the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) on board the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). We identified ~ 6,500 white dwarf (WD)candidates and compared their radial distribution with that of Main Sequence (MS) stars. We found a mild evidence that young WDs (0.1 < t < 0.6 Gyr) are less centrally concentrated when compared to MS stars in the magnitude range 25 < F435W < 26.5.
