部分对流星和完全对流星的磁拓扑

On the magnetic topology of partially and fully convective stars

Ansgar Reiners, Gibor Basri

摘要:

我们比较的磁通量在斯托克斯V和斯托克斯我在早期和中期M星周围的边界充分对流(~M3.5)的样本测量。早M星具有辐射核,中M星是完全对流的。虽然斯托克斯V是敏感的净极性的磁通量主要来自大规模的配置,斯托克斯I测量可以看到总的平均通量。我们发现,在早M矮星,只有~6%的总磁通量是在斯托克斯V检测到的这一比例是两倍以上的大,~ 14%,在完全对流的中M矮星。M矮星上的大部分磁通量在斯托克斯五号中看不到,这可能是因为磁通量主要储存在小尺度的成分中。关于弱场近似对强场探测精度的影响,还有更多的东西需要了解。在我们有限的样本中,我们看到了在完全对流的边界处磁拓扑变化的证据。完全对流的恒星在斯托克斯V可见的区域中存储了2-3倍的通量。我们估计了斯托克斯I中检测到的总磁能,并将其与斯托克斯V的结果进行了比较。我们发现,在早期M矮星中,斯托克斯V中只检测到总磁能的~0.5%,而在中期M矮星中,这一比例为~2.5%。

英文摘要:

We compare the amount of magnetic flux measured in Stokes V and Stokes I in a sample of early- and mid-M stars around the boundary to full convection (~M3.5). Early-M stars possess a radiative core, mid-M stars are fully convective. While Stokes V is sensitive to the net polarity of magnetic flux arising mainly from large-scale configurations, Stokes I measurements can see the total mean flux. We find that in early-M dwarfs, only ~6% of the total magnetic flux is detected in Stokes V. This ratio is more than twice as large, ~14%, in fully convective mid-M dwarfs. The bulk of the magnetic flux on M-dwarfs is not seen in Stokes V. This is presumably because magnetic flux is mainly stored in small scale components. There is also more to learn about the effect of the weak-field approximation on the accuracy of strong field detections. In our limited sample, we see evidence for a change in magnetic topology at the boundary to full convection. Fully convective stars store a 2-3 times higher fraction of their flux in fields visible to Stokes V. We estimate the total magnetic energy detected in Stokes I and compare it to results from Stokes V. We find that in early-M dwarfs only ~0.5% of the total magnetic energy is detected in Stokes V while this fraction is ~2.5% in mid-M dwarfs.
