行星状星云IC418的自洽恒星和三维星云模型

A self-consistent stellar and 3D nebular model for Planetary Nebula IC418

C. Morisset, L. Georgiev

摘要:

我们提出了一个相干的恒星和星云模型再现的观测行星状星云IC 418。我们想检验通过拟合恒星观测得到的恒星模型是否能令人满意地拟合星云并再现星云观测,这一点并不明显。这使我们能够确定恒星和星云的所有物理参数,包括丰度和距离。我们使用了所有可用的观测材料(FUSE,IUE,STIS和光谱)来约束使用CMFGEN代码进行的恒星大气模型。光电离模型使用Cloudy_3D完成,并基于CTIO,Lick,SPM,IUE和ISO光谱以及HST图像。140多条星云发射线与观测到的强度进行了比较。我们重现了对恒星和星云的所有观测。确定了气体分布的3D形态。恒星的有效温度为36.7kK。它的光度是7700太阳光度。我们描述了一个原始的方法来确定星云的距离,使用进化轨迹。不需要聚集因子来再现年龄-光度关系。发现1.25千秒差距的距离与最近使用视差法测定的结果非常吻合。恒星和星云的化学成分都被确定了。两者都富含碳。星云中的元素Mg、Si、S、Cl(比太阳低0.5 dex)和Fe(比太阳低2.9 dex)都有耗尽的迹象。这是第一个自洽的恒星和星云模型的行星状星云,再现了所有可用的观测范围从红外到紫外线,表明建模过程的综合方法导致更多的限制性约束,原则上,更值得信赖的结果。

英文摘要:

We present a coherent stellar and nebular model reproducing the observations of the Planetary Nebula IC418. We want to test whether a stellar model obtained by fitting the stellar observations is able to satisfactory ionize the nebula and reproduce the nebular observations, which is by no mean evident. This allows us to determine all the physical parameters of both the star and the nebula, including the abundances and the distance. We used all the observational material available (FUSE, IUE, STIS and optical spectra) to constrain the stellar atmosphere model performed using the CMFGEN code. The photoionization model is done with Cloudy_3D, and is based on CTIO, Lick, SPM, IUE and ISO spectra as well as HST images. More than 140 nebular emission lines are compared to the observed intensities. We reproduce all the observations for the star and the nebula. The 3D morphology of the gas distribution is determined. The effective temperature of the star is 36.7kK. Its luminosity is 7700 solar luminosity. We describe an original method to determine the distance of the nebula using evolutionary tracks. No clumping factor is need to reproduce the age-luminosity relation. The distance of 1.25 kpc is found in very good agreement with recent determination using parallax method. The chemical composition of both the star and the nebula are determined. Both are Carbon-rich. The nebula presents evidence of depletion of elements Mg, Si, S, Cl (0.5 dex lower than solar) and Fe (2.9 dex lower than solar). This is the first self-consistent stellar and nebular model for a Planetary Nebula that reproduces all the available observations ranging from IR to UV, showing that the combined approach for the modeling process leads to more restrictive constraints and, in principle, more trustworthy results.
