作为宇宙引擎的大质量恒星

Massive Stars as Cosmic Engines through the Ages

Andre Maeder, Georges Meynet, Sylvia Ekstrom, Raphael Hirschi, Cyril Georgy

摘要:

简要介绍了模型物理学中的一些有用的发展,然后是化学富集和WR星的模型结果。我们讨论了WR星的期望自转速度。我们强调,(C+O)/He比是一个更好的化学指标的演化WC星比的C/He比。无论有无自转,在给定的光度下,在金属丰度Z较低的区域,(C+O)/He比值应该较高。对于给定的(C+O)/He比值,低Z区的WC星具有较高的光度。WO星,这可能是超新星SNIc和一些伽玛暴的祖先,应该优先被发现在低Z的地区,是非常高的初始质量的后代。最后,我们强调大质量旋转低Z星也可能经历重质量损失的物理原因

英文摘要:

Some useful developments in the model physics are briefly presented, followed by model results on chemical enrichments and WR stars. We discuss the expected rotation velocities of WR stars. We emphasize that the (C+O)/He ratio is a better chemical indicator of evolution for WC stars than the C/He ratios. With or without rotation, at a given luminosity the (C+O)/He ratios should be higher in regions of lower metallicity Z. Also, for a given (C+O)/He ratio the WC stars in lower Z regions have higher luminosities. The WO stars, which are likely the progenitors of supernovae SNIc and of some GRBs, should preferentially be found in regions of low Z and be the descendants of very high initial masses. Finally, we emphasize the physical reasons why massive rotating low Z stars may also experience heavy mass loss
