双星原恒星的IRAM-PdBI观测I:NGC1333中的等级系统SVS13

IRAM-PdBI Observations of Binary Protostars I: The Hierarchical System SVS13 in NGC1333

Xuepeng Chen, Ralf Launhardt, Thomas Henning

摘要:

利用IRAM Plateau de Bure干涉仪,在N2 H+(1-0)谱线上,对NCG 1333中的年轻天体SV S13进行了1.4和3 mm尘埃连续谱的毫米波干涉观测。斯皮策太空望远镜的红外数据补充了这一结果。毫米级尘埃连续图像在SVS 13中分辨出四个源(A、B、C和VLA 3)。利用尘埃连续图像,我们得到了0.2- 1.1M_sun的源气体质量。N2 H+(1-0)线发射被检测到,并在空间上与尘埃连续源B和VLA 3。观测到的平均谱线宽度约为0.48 km/s,估计的维里质量约为0.7 M_sun。通过同时拟合N2 H+的七个超精细线分量,我们得到了速度场,并发现在源B和VLA 3之间存在约28 km/s/pc的对称速度梯度,这可以用核旋转来解释。速度场表明,源B和VLA 3正在形成一个物理绑定的原双星系统,嵌入在一个共同的N2 H+核心。斯皮策图像显示中红外发射源A和C,这是空间与毫米尘埃连续发射。没有从源B检测到红外发射,这意味着源被深深地嵌入。基于形态和速度结构,我们提出了一个分层的碎片图像为SVS 13的三个源(A,B和C)形成的初始碎片的一个独立的星前核,而原双星系统(源B和VLA 3)是由一个单一的崩溃的子核旋转破碎。

英文摘要:

We present millimeter interferometric observations of the young stellar object SVS13 in NCG1333 in the N2H+(1-0) line and at 1.4 and 3mm dust continuum, using the IRAM Plateau de Bure interferometer. The results are complemented by infrared data from the Spitzer Space Telescope. The millimeter dust continuum images resolve four sources (A, B, C, and VLA3) in SVS13. With the dust continuum images, we derive gas masses of 0.2-1.1 M_sun for the sources. N2H+(1-0) line emission is detected and spatially associated with the dust continuum sources B and VLA3. The observed mean line width is ~0.48 km/s and the estimated virial mass is ~0.7 M_sun. By simultaneously fitting the seven hyperfine line components of N2H+, we derive the velocity field and find a symmetric velocity gradient of about 28 km/s/pc across sources B and VLA3, which could be explained by core rotation. The velocity field suggests that sources B and VLA3 are forming a physically bound protobinary system embedded in a common N2H+ core. Spitzer images show mid-infrared emission from sources A and C, which is spatially associated with the mm dust continuum emission. No infrared emission is detected from source B, implying that the source is deeply embedded. Based on the morphologies and velocity structure, we propose a hierarchical fragmentation picture for SVS13 where the three sources (A, B, and C) were formed by initial fragmentation of a filamentary prestellar core, while the protobinary system (sources B and VLA3) was formed by rotational fragmentation of a single collapsing sub-core.
