114个剑鱼γ候选者的有限体积光度测量

A Volume-Limited Photometric Survey of 114 gamma Doradus Candidates

Gregory W. Henry, Francis C. Fekel, Stephen M. Henry

摘要:

我们对剑鱼座γ候选者的完整的、体积有限的样本进行了光度测量。该样本是从依巴谷星表中提取的,由114颗恒星组成,其颜色和绝对星等都在已知的剑鱼座伽玛星范围内。我们用我们的T12 0.8米自动测光望远镜进行了一年的观测,以获得对完整恒星样本的夜间观测。从这些调查的意见,我们确定了37颗恒星的内在变化为0.002等或以上。在这37个变星中,有8个已经在我们早期的论文中被确认为剑鱼座γ星;我们计划在未来两年中在T3 0.4米自动望远镜上对其余29个变星进行更密集的观测。我们获得了补充光谱观测基特峰Coude饲料望远镜。对我们新的光度和光谱数据的分析揭示了15个新的剑鱼座γ变星(并证实了另外两个)、8个新的盾牌座δ变星(并证实了另外一个)以及3个未解决周期性的新变星。在我们有限的样本中,有114颗剑鱼座伽马候选星,我们发现了25颗新的或以前已知的剑鱼座伽马变星。这导致在发病率为22%的伽玛剑鱼座的变化之间的候选场星的体积太阳附近。对应的剑鱼座γ星的空间密度是0.094颗星/10^3 pc ^3或94颗星/10^6 pc ^3。我们提供了一个更新的86个明亮的,确认的,伽马剑鱼座场星的名单。

英文摘要:

We have carried out a photometric survey of a complete, volume-limited sample of gamma Doradus candidates. The sample was extracted from the Hipparcos catalog and consists of 114 stars with colors and absolute magnitudes within the range of known gamma Doradus stars. We devoted one year of observing time with our T12 0.8 m automatic photometric telescope to acquire nightly observations of the complete sample of stars. From these survey observations, we identify 37 stars with intrinsic variability of 0.002 mag or more. Of these 37 variables, eight have already been confirmed as gamma Doradus stars in our earlier papers; we scheduled the remaining 29 variables on our T3 0.4 m automatic telescope to acquire more intensive observations over the next two years. We obtained complementary spectroscopic observations with the Kitt Peak coude feed telescope. Analysis of our new photometric and spectroscopic data reveals 15 new gamma Doradus variables (and confirms two others), eight new delta Scuti variables (and confirms one other), and three new variables with unresolved periodicity. Of the 114 gamma Doradus candidates in our volume-limited sample, we find 25 stars that are new or previously-known gamma Doradus variables. This results in an incidence of 22% for gamma Doradus variability among candidate field stars for this volume of the solar neighborhood. The corresponding space density of gamma Doradus stars is 0.094 stars per 10^3 pc^3 or 94 stars per 10^6 pc^3. We provide an updated list of 86 bright, confirmed, gamma Doradus field stars.
