摘要:

半人马座α双星系统由于其双重性、接近性和亮度,以及其组成部分与太阳的相似性,是恒星结构和演化理论以及确定恒星大气参数的基本校准对象。然而,这一作用受到阻碍,因为在已发表的关于其大气参数和丰度的分析中存在相当大的分歧。我们报告了一个新的光谱分析的两个组成部分的半人马座α双星系统和比较出版的分析系统。分析是相对于太阳的差异,基于高质量的光谱,并采用光谱和光度法,以获得尽可能多的独立Teff测定。大气参数也检查的一致性对动力学分析的结果和组件的位置在理论HR图。我们讨论了可能的起源的差异,得出的结论是NLTE效应的存在是一个可能的候选人,但我们注意到,目前还没有共识的存在和原因之间的偏移的光谱和光度Teff尺度的冷矮星。光谱表面重力也同意从直接测量的质量和半径。根据最近关于富含金属的恒星的数据,丰度模式可以被认为是正常的。α Cen A在最新理论演化图中的位置与动力学解和地震学的演化质量和年龄相吻合。

英文摘要:

The alpha Centauri binary system, owing to its duplicity, proximity and brightness, and its components' likeness to the Sun, is a fundamental calibrating object for the theory of stellar structure and evolution and the determination of stellar atmospheric parameters. This role, however, is hindered by a considerable disagreement in the published analyses of its atmospheric parameters and abundances. We report a new spectroscopic analysis of both components of the alpha Centauri binary system and compare published analyses of the system. The analysis is differential with respect to the Sun, based on high-quality spectra, and employed spectroscopic and photometric methods to obtain as many independent Teff determinations as possible. The atmospheric parameters are also checked for consistency against the results of the dynamical analysis and the positions of the components in a theoretical HR diagram. We discuss possible origins of discrepancies, concluding that the presence of NLTE effects is a probable candidate, but we note that there is as yet no consensus on the existence and cause of an offset between the spectroscopic and photometric Teff scales of cool dwarfs. The spectroscopic surface gravities also agree with those derived from directly measured masses and radii. The abundance pattern can be deemed normal in the context of recent data on metal-rich stars. The position of alpha Cen A in an up-to-date theoretical evolutionary diagrams yields a good match of the evolutionary mass and age with those from the dynamical solution and seismology.
