金属含量对CSPN修正风动量的影响

Metallicity effects on the modified wind momentum of CSPN

W. J. Maciel, G. R. Keller, R. D. D. Costa

摘要:

最近对行星状星云(CSPN)中心恒星的研究表明,基于模型大气的质量可能比理论质光关系得到的质量大得多。此外,修正后的风动量和光度之间的关系的色散取决于CSPN的质量扩散,并且比在大质量热星中观察到的要大。由于风的特性可能取决于金属丰度,我们分析了修改后的风动量的影响,通过考虑由恒星金属丰度引起的这个量的分散。我们的CSPN质量是基于核心质量和星云丰度之间的关系。我们的结论是,这些质量同意与已知的质量分布CSPN和白矮星,并在修改后的风动量的传播可以解释所观察到的金属丰度的变化。

英文摘要:

Recent investigations on the central stars of planetary nebulae (CSPN) indicate that the masses based on model atmospheres can be much larger than the masses derived from theoretical mass-luminosity relations. Also, the dispersion in the relation between the modified wind momentum and the luminosity depends on the mass spread of the CSPN, and is larger than observed in massive hot stars. Since the wind characteristics probably depend on the metallicity, we analyze the effects on the modified wind momentum by considering the dispersion in this quantity caused by the stellar metallicity. Our CSPN masses are based on a relation between the core mass and the nebular abundances. We conclude that these masses agree with the known mass distribution both for CSPN and white dwarfs, and that the spread in the modified wind momentum can be explained by the observed metallicity variations.
