摘要:

NGC 1333 IRAS 4A原双星是在1.3 cm和6.9 mm的连续谱线以及氨和SiO谱线上观测到的,角分辨率约为0.4角秒。连续谱图显示了两颗原恒星A1和A2的星周结构。A1系统比A2系统更明亮,质量更大。包括致密气体和原恒星在内的质量比约为6。星周盘和外流的性质表明A1可能比A2年轻。A2东北急流的偏转部分在SiO线上是明亮的,最亮峰与偏转点之间的距离表明SiO的增强在与致密核碰撞后大约需要100年。氨地图显示了一个小的结构,似乎是阻塞核心的一部分。通过比较SiO、氨、甲醛和HCN线的干涉图,研究了流出特性。它们的整体结构一致,表明这些物种是由相同的机制激发的。然而,强度分布表明,SiO是化学独特的。一氧化硅可以直接连接到主射流,而其他物质可以跟踪夹带的环境气体。

英文摘要:

The NGC 1333 IRAS 4A protobinary was observed in the 1.3 cm and 6.9 mm continuum and the ammonia and SiO lines, with an angular resolution of about 0.4 arcseconds. The continuum maps show the circumstellar structures of the two protostars, A1 and A2. The A1 system is brighter and more massive than the A2 system. The ratio of mass, including dense gas and protostar, is about 6. The properties of the circumstellar disks and outflows suggest that A1 may be younger than A2. The deflected part of the northeastern jet of A2 is bright in the SiO line, and the distance between the brightest peak and deflection point suggests that the enhancement of SiO takes about 100 yr after the collision with a dense core. The ammonia maps show a small structure that seems to be a part of the obstructing core. The outflow properties were studied by comparing interferometric maps of SiO, ammonia, formaldehyde, and HCN lines. Their overall structures agree well, suggesting that these species are excited by the same mechanism. However, the intensity distributions show that SiO is chemically unique. SiO may be directly linked to the primary jet while the other species may be tracing the entrained ambient gas.
