宽双星的演化

The Evolution of Wide Binary Stars

Yan-Fei Jiang, Scott Tremaine

摘要:

我们研究了太阳附近的宽双星在经过恒星的引力扰动下的轨道演化。我们包括银河系潮汐场的影响,并继续跟踪恒星后,他们成为无约束的。对于各种各样的初始半长轴和形成时间,我们发现,数量密度(每单位对数间隔的恒星投影分离)表现出最小值的几倍的雅可比半径r_J,这等于1.7 pc的太阳质量的恒星双星。内部的密度峰值这个最小值来自原始分布的结合双星,和外部的密度,峰值在\sim 100- 300 pc的分离,来自以前的结合双星,慢慢地漂移。外峰在盘星的位置和速度上产生了显着的长程相关性,这在大型天体测量中应该是可以检测到的,如GAIA,它可以测量精确的三维距离和速度。

英文摘要:

We study the orbital evolution of wide binary stars in the solar neighborhood due to gravitational perturbations from passing stars. We include the effects of the Galactic tidal field and continue to follow the stars after they become unbound. For a wide variety of initial semi-major axes and formation times, we find that the number density (stars per unit logarithmic interval in projected separation) exhibits a minimum at a few times the Jacobi radius r_J, which equals 1.7 pc for a binary of solar-mass stars. The density peak interior to this minimum arises from the primordial distribution of bound binaries, and the exterior density, which peaks at \sim 100--300 pc separation, arises from formerly bound binaries that are slowly drifting apart. The exterior peak gives rise to a significant long-range correlation in the positions and velocities of disk stars that should be detectable in large astrometric surveys such as GAIA that can measure accurate three-dimensional distances and velocities.
