DAZ白矮星周围气态金属盘的光谱模拟

Spectral modeling of gaseous metal disks around DAZ white dwarfs

K. Werner, T. Nagel, T. Rauch

摘要:

我们报告我们的第一个非LTE建模的气体金属盘周围的单个DAZ白矮星最近发现的Gaensicke等人。我们假设一个由钙和氢组成的开普勒旋转粘性盘环,计算了详细的垂直结构和出射光谱。我们发现,所观察到的红外CaII发射三重态可以与位于R=1.2 R_sun的缺氢气体环,潮汐破裂半径内,Teff约6000 K和低表面质量密度约0.3 g/cm**2。一个具有这种密度的圆盘,从中心的白矮星向外延伸到R=1.2 R_sun,其总质量为7 × 10**21 g,相当于一颗直径约为160 km的小行星。

英文摘要:

We report on our attempt for the first non-LTE modeling of gaseous metal disks around single DAZ white dwarfs recently discovered by Gaensicke et al. and thought to originate from a disrupted asteroid. We assume a Keplerian rotating viscous disk ring composed of calcium and hydrogen and compute the detailed vertical structure and emergent spectrum. We find that the observed infrared CaII emission triplet can be modeled with a hydrogen-deficient gas ring located at R=1.2 R_sun, inside of the tidal disruption radius, with Teff about 6000 K and a low surface mass density of about 0.3 g/cm**2. A disk having this density and reaching from the central white dwarf out to R=1.2 R_sun would have a total mass of 7 10**21 g, corresponding to an asteroid with about 160 km diameter.
