大质量星UV风线变率的三维辐射转移模拟

3-D Radiative Transfer Modelling of Massive-Star UV Wind Line Variability

A. Lobel

摘要:

我们提出了详细的半经验模型的旋转调制观察到的紫外线风线的B0.5超巨星HD 64760。我们模拟旋转调制区(RMR)与先进的3-D辐射转移计算在恒星风和定量拟合的Si IV 1395共振线的时间演化。我们发现,RMR是由于线性形状的窄扇形密度增强在赤道风。与同向旋转相互作用区(CIR)不同的是,RMR不会在恒星表面上方更大的距离上扩散。详细的最佳拟合显示,HD 64760的RMR的最大密度比周围的平滑风密度高出约17%,比围绕恒星弯曲的CIR的流体动力学模型小大约两倍。半经验的3-D传输模型表明,窄的轮辐状RMR必须共存于更广泛的和弯曲的大规模CIR风密度结构在这个快速旋转的Ib超巨星的赤道平面。

英文摘要:

We present detailed semi-empiric models for rotational modulations observed in ultraviolet wind lines of B0.5 supergiant HD 64760. We model the Rotational Modulation Regions (RMRs) with advanced 3-D radiative transfer calculations in the stellar wind and quantitatively fit the time-evolution of the Si IV 1395 resonance line. We find that the RMRs are due to linearly-shaped narrow sector-like density enhancements in the equatorial wind. Unlike the Co-rotating Interaction Regions (CIRs) which produce Discrete Absorption Components in the line, the RMRs do not spread out with larger distance above the stellar surface. The detailed best fit shows that the RMRs of HD 64760 have maximum density enhancements of ~17% above the surrounding smooth wind density, about twice smaller than the hydrodynamic models of CIRs that warp around the star. The semi-empiric 3-D transfer modelling reveals that the narrow spoke-like RMRs must co-exist with broader and curved large-scale CIR wind density structures in the equatorial plane of this fast rotating Ib-supergiant.
