摘要:

利用全天空X射线图像监视器(MAXI)上的气体狭缝相机(GSC)观测到了一个来自TWA-7的弱线金牛座T星的大X射线耀斑。在UT 2010-09- 00开始的扫描传输期间,GSC捕获了来自TWA-7的X射线闪烁,通量为2- 20 keV波段的$3\times10^{-9}$ ergs cm $^{-2}$ s $^{-1}$七点十八分二十四秒30.在能带中扫描时估计的X射线光度为3 $\times10^{32}$尔格s $^{-1}$,这表明该事件是金牛座T星最大的X射线耀斑之一。由于MAXI GSC仅在每92分钟轨道周期约一分钟的扫描过境期间监测目标,耀斑峰值处的亮度可能高于探测到的亮度。在扫描过程中,我们观察到高的X射线-热辐射光度比,log $L_{\rm X}/L_{\rm bol}$ = $-0.1^{+0.2}_{-0.3}$ ;即,X射线光度可与测辐射热光度相比。由于TWA-7既没有吸积盘,也没有二元伴星,因此观察到的事件意味着这些都不是在金牛座T星中产生如此大的耀斑所必需的。

英文摘要:

We present a large X-ray flare from a nearby weak-lined T Tauri star TWA-7 detected with the Gas Slit Camera (GSC) on the Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image (MAXI). The GSC captured X-ray flaring from TWA-7 with a flux of $3\times10^{-9}$ ergs cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$ in 2--20 keV band during the scan transit starting at UT 2010-09-07 18:24:30.The estimated X-ray luminosity at the scan in the energy band is 3$\times10^{32}$ ergs s$^{-1}$,indicating that the event is among the largest X-ray flares fromT Tauri stars.Since MAXI GSC monitors a target only during a scan transit of about a minute per 92 min orbital cycle, the luminosity at the flare peak might have been higher than that detected. At the scan transit, we observed a high X-ray-to-bolometric luminosity ratio, log $L_{\rm X}/L_{\rm bol}$ = $-0.1^{+0.2}_{-0.3}$; i.e., the X-ray luminosity is comparable to the bolometric luminosity. Since TWA-7 has neither an accreting disk nor a binary companion, the observed event implies that none of those are essential to generate such big flares in T Tauri stars.
