摘要:

本文报道了对船底座区101颗造父变星的光谱研究。这些造父变星在数量上扩展了以前的样本约35%,并增加了银盘覆盖的数量,特别是在l \approx 270°方向。新的造父变星并没有增加太多的径向梯度的信息,但提供了一个方位角的覆盖范围大幅增加。在以太阳为中心的1 kpc深度的环中,我们发现在与银河系中心成80°角的范围内,丰度没有方位角依赖性。对造父变星数据进行简单的线性拟合,得到梯度d[Fe/H]/dRG = -0.055 \pm 0.003 dex/kpc,这比我们以前从较小的造父变星样本中发现的要浅一些。

英文摘要:

This paper reports on the spectroscopic investigation of 101 Cepheids in the Carina region. These Cepheids extend previous samples by about 35% in number and increase the amount of the galactic disk coverage especially in the direction of l \approx 270°. The new Cepheids do not add much information to the radial gradient, but provide a substantial increase in azimuthal coverage. We find no azimuthal dependence in abundance over an 80° angle from the galactic center in an annulus of 1 kpc depth centered on the Sun. A simple linear fit to the Cepheid data yields a gradient d[Fe/H]/dRG = -0.055 \pm 0.003 dex/kpc which is somewhat shallower than found from our previous, smaller Cepheid sample.
