斯皮策红外线阵列照相机观测到的蛇夫座ρ的外流

Outflows in rho Ophiuchi as Seen with the Spitzer Infrared Array Camera

Miaomiao Zhang, Hongchi Wang

摘要:

利用斯皮策c2d计划的IRAC图像,我们对蛇夫座rho分子云中的中红外外流进行了调查。与IRAC通道1(3.6微米)相比,在IRAC通道2(4.5微米)中具有显著发射的扩展物体,以及在三色图像(蓝色3.6微米,绿色4.5微米,红色8.0微米)中突出为绿色物体,被识别为中红外流出物。因此,我们在rho Ophiuchi分子云中检测到了13个以前在光学或近红外中没有观察到的新流出。此外,在先前观测到的HH物体或近红外发射的位置,我们检测到31个中红外流出,其中7个对应于先前观测到的HH物体,30个对应于近红外发射。在rho Ophiuchi云中检测到的大部分中红外流出都集中在L1688致密核心区域。结合年轻恒星天体(YSO)和毫米及亚毫米源的调查结果,rho Ophiuchi分子复合体中的中红外流出物的分布暗示了该地区以前的研究所建议的从西北到东南方向的云中恒星形成的传播。

英文摘要:

Using the IRAC images from the Spitzer c2d program, we have made a survey of mid-infrared outflows in the rho Ophiuchi molecular cloud. Extended objects that have prominent emission in IRAC channel 2 (4.5 micron) compared to IRAC channel 1 (3.6 micron) and stand out as green objects in the three-color images (3.6 micron in blue, 4.5 micron in green, 8.0 micron in red) are identified as mid-infrared outflows. As a result, we detected 13 new outflows in the rho Ophiuchi molecular cloud that have not been previously observed in optical or near-infrared. In addition, at the positions of previously observed HH objects or near-infrared emission, we detected 31 mid-infrared outflows, among which seven correspond to previously observed HH objects and 30 to near-infrared emission. Most of the mid-infrared outflows detected in the rho Ophiuchi cloud are concentrated in the L1688 dense core region. In combination with the survey results for Young Stellar Objects (YSOs) and millimeter and sub-millimeter sources, the distribution of mid-infrared outflows in the rho Ophiuchi molecular complex hints a propagation of star formation in the cloud in the direction from the northwest to the southeast as suggested by previous studies of the region.
