冕状星团中的原恒星和恒星:年龄、演化和星团结构

Protostars and stars in the Coronet cluster: Age, evolution, and cluster structure

Aurora Sicilia-Aguilar, Thomas Henning, Jouni Kainulainen, Veronica Roccatagliata

摘要:

我们提出了新的光谱与火焰/VLT,近红外成像与HAWK-I/VLT,和870微米的映射与APEX/LABOCA的冠状星系团。光学数据允许估计光谱类型,消光和存在的吸积在6个以上的M型成员,除了我们以前研究的12个。亚毫米波地图和近红外数据揭示了星云结构和高消光区的存在,这些结构和高消光区在某些情况下与已知的红外、光学和X射线源有关。大多数恒星的形成都与两个在星团中心部分交叉的细长结构有关。将所有18个已知光谱类型和灭绝的天体放在HR图中表明该星团比以前认为的年轻(<200万年,可能约0.5- 100万年)。新的年龄估计与该地区各种原恒星的演化状态及其致密性相一致(<1.3 pc的跨度),但结果与低磁盘和吸积分数的冲突(只有50-65%的低质量恒星似乎有原行星盘,和大多数过渡和同源耗尽磁盘是一致的,没有吸积),并与中期观察到的进化特征,圆盘的红外光谱和光谱能量分布。

英文摘要:

We present new optical spectroscopy with FLAMES/VLT, near-IR imaging with HAWK-I/VLT, and 870 micron mapping with APEX/LABOCA of the Coronet cluster. The optical data allow to estimate spectral types, extinction and the presence of accretion in 6 more M-type members, in addition to the 12 that we had previously studied. The submillimeter maps and near-IR data reveal the presence of nebular structures and high extinction regions, which are in some cases associated to known IR, optical, and X-ray sources. Most star formation is associated to two elongated structures crossing in the central part of the cluster. Placing all the 18 objects with known spectral types and extinction in the HR diagram suggests that the cluster is younger than previously thought (<2 Myr, and probably ~0.5-1 Myr). The new age estimate is in agreement with the evolutionary status of the various protostars in the region and with its compactness (<1.3 pc across), but results in a conflict with the low disk and accretion fraction (only 50-65% of low-mass stars appear to have protoplanetary disks, and most transitional and homologously depleted disks are consistent with no accretion) and with the evolutionary features observed in the mid-IR spectra and spectral energy distributions of the disks.
