摘要:

高分辨率的光谱观测(紫外HST/STIS和光学)被用来表征的物理状态和速度结构的多相星际介质看到对附近(170 pc)的明星HD 102065,位于后面的彗星状,红外卷云,在该地区之间的相互作用的斯科-岑OB协会和本地气泡。我们通过拟合来自CO、CH、CH+、C I、S I、Fe I、Mg I、Mg II、Mn II、P II、Ni II、C II、N I、O I、Si III、C IV和Si IV的多个跃迁来分析沿视线存在的星际组分。吸收光谱由H I、CO和C II发射线光谱、来自FUSE光谱的H $_2$柱密度和IRAS图像补充。沿着视线检测各种温度和电离状态的气体成分。在低LSR速度下,大部分氢柱密度在冷的、扩散的分子气体中。这种气体与J>2能级的H2示踪的较热分子气体混合,其中必须形成观察到的CH+。我们还确定了三个不同的成分,温暖的气体在负速度下降到-20公里/秒。的温度和气体激发示出增加从大部分的气体的速度偏移。在高度电离的物质中,在最负的速度分量中检测到温度为几个10^5 K的热气体。这种热的气体也被检测到在非常强的线少电离的物种(Mg II,Si II* 和C II*),其中大部分的气体是较冷的。我们与观测结果的证据,动力学影响的Sco-Cen恒星协会附近的ISM。我们提出了一种假设,即卷云在10^5年前被一个超新星爆炸波击中,该爆炸波来自斯科-岑星协的下半人马座Crux群。

英文摘要:

High-resolution spectroscopic observations (UV HST/STIS and optical) are used to characterize the physical state and velocity structure of the multiphase interstellar medium seen towards the nearby (170 pc) star HD102065, located behind the tail of a cometary-shaped, infrared cirrus-cloud, in the area of interaction between the Sco-Cen OB association and the Local Bubble. We analyze interstellar components present along the line of sight by fitting multiple transitions from CO, CH, CH+, C I, S I, Fe I, Mg I, Mg II, Mn II, P II, Ni II, C II, N I, O I, Si III, C IV, and Si IV. The absorption spectra are complemented by H I, CO and C II emission-line spectra, H$_2$ column-densities derived from FUSE spectra, and IRAS images. Gas components of a wide range of temperatures and ionization states are detected along the line of sight. Most of the hydrogen column-density is in cold, diffuse, molecular gas at low LSR velocity. This gas is mixed with traces of warmer molecular gas traced by H2 in the J>2 levels, in which the observed CH+ must be formed. We also identify three distinct components of warm gas at negative velocities down to -20 km/s. The temperature and gas excitation are shown to increase with increasing velocity shift from the bulk of the gas. Hot gas at temperatures of several 10^5 K is detected in the most negative velocity component in the highly-ionized species. This hot gas is also detected in very strong lines of less-ionized species (Mg II, Si II* and C II*) for which the bulk of the gas is cooler. We relate the observational results to evidence for dynamical impact of the Sco-Cen stellar association on the nearby ISM. We propose a scenario where the cirrus cloud has been hit a few 10^5 yr ago by a supernova blast wave originating from the Lower Centaurus Crux group of the Sco-Cen association.
