选择ICRF2源的宇宙学和运动学准则
Cosmological and kinematical criteria for the ICRF2 sources selection
摘要:
天文学中最精确的惯性参考系是1979-1995年VLBI观测期间获得的212个定义河外射电望远镜的目录。天文学联盟决定制定第二次实现国际珊瑚礁论坛目录。最佳源选择的标准(在坐标稳定性方面)必须被定义为第一目标。选择的源必须保持惯性天文坐标系的坐标轴稳定。在这里,我们提出了新的ICRF目录源选择的新标准。第一个我们称之为“宇宙学”,第二个是“运动学”。这些标准的物理基础是基于这样的假设,即类星体的视运动(在几百微弧秒量级的角尺度上)与类星体内部的真实运动有关。因此,视角运动对应于射电源内“热点”的真实物理运动。结果表明,红移间隔$0.8 ÷3.0$是最有利的,在这样的源内部的物理位移对应于最小的“热点”的表观角位移。在“宇宙学”选择的源,我们建议选择不动的源和线性运动的源,这是可预测的和稳定的长时间间隔。为了选择满足这些条件的源,我们分析了已知的红移源和时间序列获得我们的代码和VLBI数据的分析不同的中心。作为这些分析的结果,我们选择了137个来源作为ICRF 2目录的基础。
英文摘要:
The most precise realization of inertial reference frame in astronomy is the catalogue of 212 defining extragalactic radiosources with coordinates obtained during VLBI observation runs in 1979-1995. IAU decided on the development of the second realization of the ICRF2 catalogue. The criteria of best sources selection (in terms of coordinates stability) must be defined as the first aim. The selected sources have to keep stable the coordinate axes of inertial astronomical frame. Here we propose new criteria of source selection for the new ICRF catalogue. The first one we call as "cosmological" and the second one as "kinematical". The physical basis of these criteria is based on the assumption that apparent motion of quasars (at angular scale of the order of hundred microarcseconds) is connected with real motion inside quasars. Therefore apparent angular motion corresponds to real physical motion of a "hot spot" inside a radio source. It is shown that interval of redshift $0.8 ÷3.0$ is the most favorable in terms that physical shift inside such sources corresponds to minimal apparent angular shift of a "hot spot". Among "cosmologically" selected sources we propose to select motionless sources and sources with linear motion which are predictable and stable over long time interval. To select sources which satisfies such conditions we analyzed known redshifts of sources and time series obtained by our code and by different centers of analysis of VLBI data. As a result of these analyses we select 137 sources as a basis for the ICRF2 catalogue.
