摘要:

利用哈勃空间望远镜(HST)获得的SN 2001ep和SN 2001eh的早期光谱,研究了Ia型超新星的紫外光谱特性。一系列的光谱模型计算的Monte Carlo光谱合成代码,和紫外线通量的元素丰度和密度梯度的外层喷出物的依赖性进行了测试。大部分的UV通量是由从红色到蓝色波长的光子的反向荧光散射形成的。这一过程,结合电离位移由于增强线阻塞,可以导致更强的紫外线通量的外层中的铁基团丰度增加,与以前的权利要求相反。

英文摘要:

The spectral properties of type Ia supernovae in the ultraviolet (UV) are investigated using the early-time spectra of SN 2001ep and SN 2001eh obtained using the Hubble Space Telescope (HST). A series of spectral models is computed with a Monte Carlo spectral synthesis code, and the dependence of the UV flux on the elemental abundances and the density gradient in the outer layers of the ejecta is tested. A large fraction of the UV flux is formed by reverse fluorescence scattering of photons from red to blue wavelengths. This process, combined with ionization shifts due to enhanced line blocking, can lead to a stronger UV flux as the iron-group abundance in the outer layers is increased, contrary to previous claims.
