摘要:

本文给出了年轻恒星RW Aur A的纵向磁场B_z测量结果。我们发现HeI 5876谱线窄区的B_z在-1.47 \pm 0.15 kG ~+1.10 \pm 0.15 kG之间变化。我们的数据与\simeq 5.6 ^d的恒星自转周期和两个具有相反磁场极性且经度相差约180 ^o的热点模型一致。B_z<0的光斑位于RW Aur吸积盘中平面上方的半球,B_z>0的光斑位于中平面下方。在3σ水平上,B_z的上限为:光生线180 G,H_α和[OI] 6300线形成区分别为220 G和230 G。上限600 G出现在发射谱线宽分量形成的区域。在11种情况中,我们观察到两种情况下的场位于NaI D线的蓝色吸收翼的形成区,即流出区:B_z= -180 \pm 50 G和-810 \pm 80 G。在我们所有的观测中,RW Aur光球线的径向速度平均约为+ 10.5 km/s,比Petrov等人(2001)十年前得出的值小5.5 km/s。在这方面,我们讨论了一种可能性,RW Aur不是一个二进制,而是一个三进制。

英文摘要:

Results of longitudinal magnetic field B_z measurements for young star RW Aur A are presented. We found that B_z in the formation region of HeI 5876 line's narrow component varies from -1.47 \pm 0.15 kG to +1.10 \pm 0.15 kG. Our data are consistent with a stellar rotational period of \simeq 5.6^d and with a model of two hotspots with an opposite polarity of magnetic field and with a difference in a longitude about 180^o. The spot with B_z<0 is located at the hemisphere above the midplane of RW Aur's accretion disc and the spot with B_z>0 is below the midplane. The following upper limits for B_z (at 3σ level) were found after averaging of all our observations: 180 G for photosperic lines, 220 G and 230 G for formation regions of H_α and [OI] 6300 lines respectively. Upper limit 600 G were found in the region where broad components of emisson lines form. For two cases out of 11 we observed the field in a formation region of a blue absorption wing of NaI D lines i.e. in an outflow: B_z= -180 \pm 50 G and -810 \pm 80 G. Radial velocity of RW Aur's photospheric lines averaged over all our observations is about + 10.5 km/s what is 5.5 km/s less than value derived ten years earlier by Petrov et al. (2001). In this connection, we discuss a possibility that RW Aur is not a binary but a triple system.
