β Picture移动群中质量最小的成员

The Lowest Mass Member of the beta Pictoris Moving Group

Emily L. Rice, Jacqueline K. Faherty, Kelle L. Cruz

摘要:

我们提出的光谱和运动学证据表明,2 MASS J 06085283 -2753583(M8.5gamma)是β风景如画的移动群(BPMG,年龄~ 1200万年)的成员,使其成为这个年轻的,附近的协会的最新类型的已知成员。我们确认低重力光谱形态在中等和高分辨率的近红外。我们提出了新的径向速度和自行测量,并使用这些来计算银河系的位置和空间运动与其他高概率成员的BPMG一致。根据该天体的有效温度、表面重力、光谱类型和年龄,2 MASS 0608-27的预测质量范围为15-35 M Jup,这使其处于褐矮星质量范围内。因此,2 MASS J 06085283 -2753583被自信地添加到非常低质量的中间年龄基准对象的短列表中,这些对象为正在进行的对附近年轻协会的最低质量成员的搜索提供信息。

英文摘要:

We present spectral and kinematic evidence that 2MASS J06085283-2753583 (M8.5gamma) is a member of the beta Pictoris Moving Group (BPMG, age ~12 Myr), making it the latest-type known member of this young, nearby association. We confirm low-gravity spectral morphology at both medium and high resolutions in the near-infrared. We present new radial velocity and proper motion measurements and use these to calculate galactic location and space motion consistent with other high-probability members of the BPMG. The predicted mass range consistent with the object's effective temperature, surface gravity, spectral type, and age is 15-35 M_Jup, placing 2MASS 0608-27 well within the brown dwarf mass regime. 2MASS J06085283-2753583 is thus confidently added to the short list of very low mass, intermediate age benchmark objects that inform ongoing searches for the lowest-mass members of nearby young associations.
