摘要:

在这篇文章中,我们测试了造父变星由于质量损失而具有红外过量的假设。我们拟合一个模型,使用质量损失率和恒星半径作为自由参数的光学观测OGLE-III调查和红外观测2 MASS和SAGE数据集。造父变星的样本预测的最小质量损失率范围从零到$10^{-8}M_\odot$ $yr^{-1}$,其中率取决于所选择的灰尘属性。我们使用预测的半径来计算LMC造父变星的周期-半径关系,并估计红外过量的存在所造成的不确定性,确定角直径与红外表面亮度技术。最后,我们计算了LMC造父变星在VIJHK + IRAC波长下的线性和非线性周期-亮度(P-L)关系,发现P-L关系在红外波长下是非线性的,与以前的结果相反。

英文摘要:

In this article, we test the hypothesis that Cepheids have infrared excesses due to mass loss. We fit a model using the mass-loss rate and the stellar radius as free parameters to optical observations from the OGLE-III survey and infrared observations from the 2MASS and SAGE data sets. The sample of Cepheids have predicted minimum mass-loss rates ranging from zero to $10^{-8}M_\odot$ $yr^{-1}$, where the rates depend on the chosen dust properties. We use the predicted radii to compute the Period-Radius relation for LMC Cepheids, and to estimate the uncertainty caused by the presence of infrared excess for determining angular diameters with the infrared surface brightness technique. Finally, we calculate the linear and non-linear Period-Luminosity (P-L) relations for the LMC Cepheids at VIJHK + IRAC wavelengths and we find that the P-L relations are consistent with being non-linear at infrared wavelengths, contrary to previous results.
