原行星盘扩展的气相诊断

Gas Phase diagnostics of Protoplanetary disk extension

B. Ercolano, J. J. Drake, C. J. Clarke

摘要:

我们研究了利用碳原子精细结构和近红外禁戒线跃迁比值诊断原行星盘扩张的可能性。使用二维光电离和辐射转移模拟的结果,一个现实的原行星盘结构的X射线照射的金牛座T星,我们得到理论的发射图,我们构建的径向分布的最强的发射线产生的磁盘。我们发现碳原子的精细结构与近红外禁戒线发射的比值特别有希望限制气态原行星盘的最小尺寸。虽然理论上是可行的,但该方法存在许多观察困难,本文也对此进行了讨论。

英文摘要:

We investigate the potential of using ratios of fine structure and near-infrared forbidden line transitions of atomic carbon to diagnose protoplanetary disk extension. Using results from 2D photoionisation and radiative transfer modeling of a realistic protoplanetary disk structure irradiated by X-rays from a T Tauri star, we obtain theoretical emission maps from which we construct radial distributions of the strongest emission lines produced in the disk. We show that ratios of fine structure to near-infrared forbidden line emission of atomic carbon are especially promising to constrain the minimum size of gaseous protoplanetary disks. While theoretically viable, the method presents a number of observational difficulties that are also discussed here.
