FU Ori的差动旋转

The Differential Rotation of FU Ori

Zhaohuan Zhu, Catherine Espaillat, Kenneth Hinkle, Jesus Hernandez, Lee Hartmann, Nuria Calvet

摘要:

根据一些观测性质,已确定FU Orionis天体在爆发时的发射是在快速吸积的原行星盘中产生的。对吸积盘设想的一个基本检验是,差动旋转盘光谱应该产生旋转速度随观测波长的变化,因为在较长波长处拍摄的光谱探测外部的、旋转较慢的盘区域。FU Ori先前的观测显示,在近红外(~ 2.2微米)波长处的旋转比在光学(~ 0.6微米)波长处的旋转小,这与开普勒旋转的假设一致。在这里,我们报告了一个光谱从凤凰仪器双子座南,这表明,差分(较慢)旋转继续观察到~ 5微米。观测到的光谱与我们先前构建的吸积盘模型的预测很好地匹配,该模型与观测到的光谱能量分布和波长< 2.2微米的微分旋转相匹配。这一运动学结果使我们能够确认我们以前的推断,即FU Ori盘的快速吸积区域具有较大的外半径(~ 1 AU),这对纯粹依赖于热不稳定性的爆发模型造成了困难。虽然一些光谱已被解释为FU Ori的磁盘解释的问题,我们表明,调整的最大有效温度的磁盘模型,在以前的论文中提出的,大大减少了这些困难。

英文摘要:

The emission of FU Orionis objects in outburst has been identified as arising in rapidly accreting protoplanetary disks, based on a number of observational properties. A fundamental test of the accretion disk scenario is that the differentially rotating disk spectrum should produce a variation of rotational velocity with the wavelength of observation, as spectra taken at longer wavelengths probe outer, more slowly rotating disk regions. Previous observations of FU Ori have shown smaller rotation at near-infrared (~ 2.2 micron) wavelengths than observed at optical (~ 0.6 micron) wavelengths consistent with the assumption of Keplerian rotation. Here we report a spectrum from the Phoenix instrument on Gemini South which shows that differential (slower) rotation continues to be observed out to ~ 5 micron. The observed spectrum is well matched by the prediction of our accretion disk model previously constructed to match the observed spectral energy distribution and the differential rotation at wavelengths < 2.2 micron. This kinematic result allows us to confirm our previous inference of a large outer radius (~ 1 AU) for the rapidly accreting region of the FU Ori disk, which presents difficulties for outburst models relying purely on thermal instability. While some optical spectra have been interpreted to pose problems for the disk interpretation of FU Ori, we show that the adjustment of the maximum effective temperature of the disk model, proposed in a previous paper, greatly reduces these difficulties.
