摘要:

我们用8.2米斯巴鲁望远镜上的冷却式中红外相机和光谱仪(COMICS)对10兆太阳的Herbig Be星HD 200775进行了中红外观测。我们发现在未分辨的过剩辐射周围有一个向南北方向延伸约1000 AU半径的椭圆形漫射辐射。漫射辐射垂直于过去外流活动形成的空腔壁,平行于中心近双星轨道的投影长轴。漫射发射的椭圆轮廓的中心从恒星位置偏移,并且偏移的量随着轮廓亮度水平的降低而增加。漫发射在所有的几何形状,尺寸和配置都很好地解释了倾斜的喇叭形圆盘,只有它的表面发射中红外光子。我们的研究结果给出了第一个高分辨率的大质量恒星周围的红外盘图像,并强烈支持HD 200775是通过盘吸积形成的。盘生存的主要吸积阶段,并显示出类似的结构,低质量的恒星周围的“磁盘大气”。与此同时,该盘还显示出大质量恒星的特征,如3.4毫米的自由-自由辐射所追踪的光蒸发和不寻常的硅酸盐辐射,峰值为9.2微米,比许多天体的峰值都要短。它提供了一个很好的地方来比较大质量恒星和低质量恒星之间的盘属性。

英文摘要:

We made mid-infrared observations of the 10Msun Herbig Be star HD200775 with the Cooled Mid-Infrared Camera and Spectrometer (COMICS) on the 8.2m Subaru Telescope. We discovered diffuse emission of an elliptical shape extended in the north-south direction inabout 1000AU radius around unresolved excess emission. The diffuse emission is perpendicular to the cavity wall formed by the past outflow activity and is parallel to the projected major axis of the central close binary orbit. The centers of the ellipse contours of the diffuse emission are shifted from the stellar position and the amount of the shift increases as the contour brightness level decreases. The diffuse emission is well explained in all of geometry, size, and configuration by an inclined flared disk where only its surface emits the mid-infrared photons. Our results give the first well-resolved infrared disk images around a massive star and strongly support that HD200775 is formed through the disk accretion. The disk survives the main accretion phase and shows a structure similar to that around lower-mass stars with 'disk atmosphere'. At the same time, the disk also shows properties characteristic to massive stars such as photoevaporation traced by the 3.4mm free-free emission and unusual silicate emission with a peak at 9.2micron, which is shorter than that of many astronomical objects. It provides a good place to compare the disk properties between massive and lower-mass stars.
