Oe星HD 155806的风是磁约束的吗?

Is the wind of the Oe star HD 155806 magnetically confined?

摘要:

Oe星是O型星的一个子集,它们的发射线来自于拱星盘。最近在一些O型恒星中探测到的磁场为Oe型恒星周围盘状结构的稳定性提供了一种可能的解释。根据这一假说,恒星的风是由一个偶极磁场引导的,在磁赤道平面上产生一个圆盘。作为这个模型的测试,我们已经获得了最热的银河系Oe星HD 155806的分光偏振观测。在这里,我们讨论这些观察的结果和影响。

英文摘要:

Oe stars are a subset of the O-type stars that exhibit emission lines from a circumstellar disk. The recent detection of magnetic fields in some O-type stars suggests a possible explanation for the stability of disk-like structures around Oe stars. According to this hypothesis, the wind of the star is channeled by a dipolar magnetic field producing a disc in the magnetic equatorial plane. As a test of this model, we have obtained spectropolarimetric observations of the hottest Galactic Oe star HD 155806. Here we discuss the results and implications of those observations.
