摘要:

我们提出了新的经验估计的三角洲V_HB_凹凸参数的15个银河系球状星团(GGC)使用准确和均匀的地基光学数据。结合文献中可用的类似评估,我们最终得到62个GGC的样品,其覆盖了非常宽的金属含量范围(-2.16<=[M/H]<=-0.58 dex)。采用Kraft & Ivans(2004)或Carretta等人(2009)提供的均匀金属丰度标度,我们发现观测到的Delta V_HB_bump参数大于预测值。在贫金属区([M/H]<=-1.7,-1.6 dex),40%的GC显示2 σ(~0.40 mag)或更大的差异。演化模型,无论是阿尔法和hoc增强或氦增强不减轻理论和观测之间的差异。如果我们使用新的太阳能重元素混合物,结果是一样的。在Carretta等人的金属丰度尺度中,α-和hoc-增强的演化模型与观测结果之间的比较也表明,在富金属区([M/H]=>0),观测到的Delta V_HB_bump参数可能系统地小于预测值。

英文摘要:

We present new empirical estimates of the Delta V_HB_bump parameter for 15 Galactic globular clusters (GGCs) using accurate and homogeneous ground-based optical data. Together with similar evaluations available in the literature, we ended up with a sample of 62 GGCs covering a very broad range in metal content (-2.16<=[M/H]<=-0.58 dex). Adopting the homogeneous metallicity scale provided either by Kraft & Ivans (2004) or by Carretta et al. (2009), we found that the observed Delta V_HB_bump parameters are larger than predicted. In the metal-poor regime ([M/H]<=-1.7, -1.6 dex) 40% of GCs show discrepancies of 2sigma (~0.40 mag) or more. Evolutionary models that account either for alpha- and CNO-enhancement or for helium enhancement do not alleviate the discrepancy between theory and observations. The outcome is the same if we use the new Solar heavy-element mixture. The comparison between alpha- and CNO-enhanced evolutionary models and observations in the Carretta et al. metallicity scale also indicates that observed Delta V_HB_bump parameters, in the metal-rich regime ([M/H]=>0), might be systematically smaller than predicted.
