大质量双星和球状星团中星际介质的富集

Massive binaries and the enrichment of the interstellar medium in globular clusters

S. E. de Mink, O. R. Pols, N. Langer, R. G. Izzard

摘要:

在球状星团中观察到的异常现象表明,氢燃烧产生的物质污染了环境。有两个主要的来源:渐近巨星分支星和大质量恒星在分裂极限附近旋转。我们讨论了潜在的大规模二进制作为一个有趣的替代来源的处理材料。我们讨论了相互作用的双星质量脱落的观测证据。与大质量恒星的快速辐射驱动风相反,这种物质通常以低速喷射。我们预计它会留在球状星团的势阱中,并成为第二代恒星形成或污染的可能。我们估计,处理后的低速物质的量,可以喷出的大质量的二进制文件是大于贡献的两个先前提出的来源相结合。

英文摘要:

Abundance anomalies observed in globular cluster stars indicate pollution with material processed by hydrogen burning. Two main sources have been suggested: asymptotic giant branch stars and massive stars rotating near the break-up limit. We discuss the potential of massive binaries as an interesting alternative source of processed material. We discuss observational evidence for mass shedding from interacting binaries. In contrast to the fast, radiatively driven winds of massive stars, this material is typically ejected with low velocity. We expect that it remains inside the potential well of a globular cluster and becomes available for the formation or pollution of a second generation of stars. We estimate that the amount of processed low-velocity material that can be ejected by massive binaries is larger than the contribution of two previously suggested sources combined.
