LO Pegasi:多波段光偏振的研究

LO Pegasi: An investigation of multi-band optical polarization

J. C. Pandey, Biman J. Medhi, Ram Sagar, A. K. Pandey

摘要:

首次对冷活动星LO Peg进行了BVR偏振测量研究。在冷的活跃恒星中,发现LO Peg是高度极化的。我们的观测得到了LO Peg中偏振的平均值:$P_B =0.387\pm 0.004%$,$θ_B = 88°\pm1°$ ; $P_V=0.351\pm0.004%$,$θ_V=91°\pm1°$ ;和$P_R= 0.335\pm0.003%$,$θ_R = 91°\pm1°$。偏振度和位置角都是可变的。B、V和R波段的偏振变化半振幅分别为$0.18\pm0.02$ %、$0.13\pm0.01$ %和$0.10\pm0.02$ %。我们认为,在LO Peg中观察到的偏振水平可能是各向异性的恒星辐射场的散射的光学薄拱星信封或散射的恒星辐射的双折射结构的结果。

英文摘要:

We present BVR polarimetric study of the cool active star LO Peg for the first time. LO Peg was found to be highly polarized among the cool active stars. Our observations yield average values of polarization in LO Peg: $P_B =0.387\pm 0.004%$, $θ_B = 88°\pm1°$; $P_V=0.351\pm0.004%$, $θ_V=91°\pm1°$; and $P_R= 0.335\pm0.003%$, $θ_R = 91°\pm1°$. Both the degree of polarization and the position angle are found to be variable. The semi-amplitude of the polarization variability in B, V and R bands are found to be $0.18\pm0.02$%, $0.13\pm0.01$% and $0.10\pm0.02$%, respectively. We suggest that the levels of polarization observed in LO Peg could be the result of scattering of an anisotropic stellar radiation field by an optically thin circumstellar envelope or scattering of the stellar radiation by prominence-like structures.
