摘要:

我们进行了光学和紫外光谱分析的样本20银河系B 0- B5超巨星的光度类Ia,Ib,Iab和II。基本恒星参数获得光学诊断和观察到的紫外光谱特征的模型预测的关键比较。这些参数是使用CMFGEN,Hillier等人的nLTE,线覆盖模型大气代码,1998. B超巨星温标在这里得到的显示减少了1000 - 3000 K相比,以前的结果使用未覆盖的代码。质量损失率的估计值与预测的理论值吻合良好,所有20个B 0- B5超巨星的分析表明CNO处理的证据。B 0- B0.7超巨星的观测WLR值比预测值大,而B1 - B5超巨星的观测WLR值比预测值大。这意味着观测值和理论值之间的差异不能通过采用聚集(即,低)质量损失率,如O星。最令人惊讶的结果是,虽然CMFGEN成功地再现了光谱准确,它不能再现关键的UV诊断,如NV和CIV P Cygni配置文件,精确。这个问题的出现是因为模型没有足够的电离,无法再现天鹅座P剖面所观察到的吸收谷的全部范围。这些发现进一步支持了对大质量星风的标准模型进行修正的必要性。

英文摘要:

We undertake an optical and ultraviolet spectroscopic analysis of a sample of 20 Galactic B0 - B5 supergiants of luminosity classes Ia, Ib, Iab and II. Fundamental stellar parameters are obtained from optical diagnostics and a critical comparison of the model predictions to observed UV spectral features is made. These parameters are derived for individual stars using CMFGEN, the nLTE, line-blanketed model atmosphere code of Hillier et al., 1998. The B supergiant temperature scale derived here shows a reduction of 1000 - 3000 K compared to previous results obtained using unblanketed codes. Mass loss rate estimates are in good agreement with predicted theoretical values and all of the 20 B0 - B5 supergiants analysed show evidence for CNO processing. The observed WLR values calculated for B0 - B0.7 supergiants are larger than predicted values, whereas the reverse is true for B1 - B5 supergiants. This means that the discrepancy between observed and theoretical values cannot be resolved by adopting clumped (i.e., lower) mass loss rates, as for O stars. The most surprising result is that, although CMFGEN succeeds in reproducing the optical spectrum accurately, it fails to reproduce key UV diagnostics, such as NV and CIV P Cygni profiles, precisely. This problem arises because the models are not ionised enough and fail to reproduce the full extent of the observed absorption trough of the P Cygni profiles. These findings add further support to the need to revise the standard model of massive star winds.
