摘要:

本文报道了一颗年轻的0.16”双星2 M2234 + 4041 AB的发现,它是凯克激光导星自适应光学对年轻的超冷矮星成像巡天的结果。空间分辨的近红外光度学和光谱学研究表明,该系统的光度比和温度比接近于1。从光学和近红外光谱,我们确定了M6的复合光谱类型的系统。2 M2234 + 4041 AB光谱中的重力敏感光谱特征与年轻天体(约100万年)的光谱特征最匹配。2 M2234 + 4041 AB的Teff和年龄与演化模型的比较表明,每个组分的质量为0.10(+0.075-0.04)Msun。在复合光谱中的H α发射线和在空间分辨近红外光谱中的Br γ发射线表明该系统是活跃的吸积。这两个系统的组成部分都有红外过剩,表明它们都有拱星盘。虽然2 M2234 + 4041 AB最初被认为是一颗年轻的场矮星,但它距离赫比格Ae/Be恒星LkHa 233只有1.5'。到LkHa 233的距离通常假定为880 pc。2 M2234 + 4041 AB不太可能如此遥远,因为它会比任何已知的金牛座天体更明亮。我们重新评估了到LkHa 233群的距离,并根据依巴谷到附近的B3型群成员(HD 213976)的距离,找到了325(+72-50)pc的值。2 M2234 + 4041 AB是第一颗可能与LkHa 233星群相关的低质量恒星。在325 pc的距离,它的物理距离预计为51 AU,使其成为在年轻恒星形成区发现的越来越多的宽,低质量双星之一。

英文摘要:

We report the discovery of a young, 0.16" binary, 2M2234+4041AB, found as the result of a Keck laser guide star adaptive optics imaging survey of young field ultracool dwarfs. Spatially resolved near-infrared photometry and spectroscopy indicate that the luminosity and temperature ratios of the system are near unity. From optical and near-infrared spectroscopy, we determine a composite spectral type of M6 for the system. Gravity-sensitive spectral features in the spectra of 2M2234+4041AB are best matched to those of young objects (~1 Myr old). A comparison of the Teff and age of 2M2234+4041AB to evolutionary models indicates the mass of each component is 0.10 (+0.075-0.04) Msun. Emission lines of H alpha in the composite optical spectrum of the system and Br gamma in spatially resolved near-IR spectra of the two components indicate that the system is actively accreting. Both components of the system have IR excesses, indicating that they both harbor circumstellar disks. Though 2M2234+4041AB was originally identified as a young field dwarf, it lies 1.5' from the well-studied Herbig Ae/Be star, LkHa 233. The distance to LkHa 233 is typically assumed to be 880 pc. It is unlikely 2M2234+4041AB could be this distant, as it would then be more luminous than any known Taurus objects of similar spectral type. We re-evaluate the distance to the LkHa 233 group and find a value of 325 (+72-50) pc, based on the Hipparcos distance to a nearby B3-type group member (HD 213976). 2M2234+4041AB is the first low-mass star to be potentially associated with the LkHa 233 group. At a distance of 325 pc, its projected physical separation is 51 AU, making it one of a growing number of wide, low-mass binaries found in young star-forming regions.
