摘要:

本文描述了Mira变星中SiO脉泽发射的动力学大气和脉泽传输模型。该模型纠正了这种类型的早期模型的许多缺陷,特别是与灰尘和各种波长相关的光学厚层产生的红外(IR)辐射场有关。模拟的脉泽形成环的半径与VLBI观测和早期模型中发现的一致。这一协议要求采用一个半径约为恒星光球半径两倍的射电光球,与观测结果一致。如此大小的射电光球使得某些在低半径处具有高放大率的脉泽位置不可见,并隐藏了高速激波,这在射电连续观测中是不存在的。SiO脉泽在光学相位为0.1 ~ 0.25时最亮,这与观测到的相位滞后相一致。尘埃对微波激射辐射既有轻微的影响,也有深刻的影响。脉泽环,冲击和光学厚层的SiO泵浦带在8.13 \micron出现密切相关的四个相位样品中的三个。

英文摘要:

We describe a combined dynamic atmosphere and maser propagation model of SiO maser emission in Mira variables. This model rectifies many of the defects of an earlier model of this type, particularly in relation to the infra-red (IR) radiation field generated by dust and various wavelength-dependent, optically thick layers. Modelled masers form in rings with radii consistent with those found in VLBI observations and with earlier models. This agreement requires the adoption of a radio photosphere of radius approximately twice that of the stellar photosphere, in agreement with observations. A radio photosphere of this size renders invisible certain maser sites with high amplification at low radii, and conceals high-velocity shocks, which are absent in radio continuum observations. The SiO masers are brightest at an optical phase of 0.1 to 0.25, which is consistent with observed phase-lags. Dust can have both mild and profound effects on the maser emission. Maser rings, a shock and the optically thick layer in the SiO pumping band at 8.13\micron appear to be closely associated in three out of four phase samples.
