超高速恒星中的“慢”和“快”旋转体

'Slow' and Fast Rotators among Hypervelocity Stars

Mercedes Lopez-Morales, Alceste Z. Bonanos

摘要:

我们从高分辨率光谱测量了晚期B型超高速星HVS 7和HVS 8的投影旋转速度为60 +/- 17 km/s和260 +/- 70 km/s。假设恒星自转轴的倾角很大,HVS 7的“缓慢”自转原则上与起源于双星系统相一致。然而,HVS 8的快速自转更像是典型的单颗B型恒星。因此,HVS 8可能是通过希尔斯提出的机制以外的机制排出的。我们还估计了HVS 7和HVS 8的有效温度和表面重力,并获得了它们的径向速度的额外测量。我们发现的证据支持一个蓝色的水平分支性质的HVS 7,和一个主要的序列性质的HVS 8。

英文摘要:

We measure the projected rotational velocities of the late B-type hypervelocity stars HVS7 and HVS8 from high resolution spectroscopy to be 60 +/- 17 km/s and 260 +/- 70 km/s. The 'slow' rotation of HVS7 is in principle consistent with having originated in a binary system, assuming a high inclination angle of the stellar rotation axis. However, the fast rotation of HVS8 is more typical of single B-type stars. HVS8 could have therefore been ejected by a mechanism other than that proposed by Hills. We also estimate the effective temperatures and surface gravities for HVS7 and HVS8 and obtain an additional measurement of their radial velocities. We find evidence in support of a blue horizontal branch nature for HVS7, and a main sequence nature for HVS8.
