摘要:

分析了1995-2011年期间的光谱,偏振和高光谱分辨率干涉测量数据,以记录经典Be壳层恒星48 Lib的星周盘活动过渡到一个新的阶段。长期磁盘的演变使用的V/R比的紫色和红色的H α和Br γ,径向速度和配置文件的He I和光学金属壳线,多波段BVRI偏振,宽带和高分辨率的干涉vibrations和相位。48 Lib中的圆盘不对称性的光谱特征在90年代末消失,但在2004年至2007年之间恢复了一些时间。常规壳线的径向速度和线轮廓的变化与V/R行为相关。它们被狭窄的吸收核所共享,这些吸收核叠加在看起来像光球层的He I线上,这些线可能形成于靠近光球层的内盘的高密度气体中。大的径向速度变化也继续在V/R-安静年。宽H波段的干涉测量给出了盘的直径为(1.72 ± 0.2)mas(相当于15个恒星半径),盘的位置角为(50 ± 9)度,盘的相对扁平度为1.66 ± 0.3。在误差相同的磁盘位置角来自偏振观测和跨Br伽马的光心移位。高分辨率的干涉可见度和相位分布显示出双分量甚至多分量结构。根据Br γ发射区的大小进行的初步估计表明,该盘的直径很大(数十个恒星半径)。

英文摘要:

Spectroscopic, polarimetric, and high spectral resolution interferometric data covering the period 1995-2011 are analyzed to document the transition into a new phase of circumstellar disk activity in the classical Be-shell star 48 Lib. The long-term disk evolution is described using the V/R ratio of the violet and red emission components of H alpha and Br gamma, radial velocities and profiles of He I and optical metal shell lines, multi-band BVRI polarimetry, broad-band and high-resolution interferometric visibilities and phases. Spectroscopic signatures of disk asymmetries in 48 Lib vanished in the late nineties but recovered some time between 2004 and 2007. Variations in the radial velocity and line profile of conventional shell lines correlate with the V/R behavior. They are shared by narrow absorption cores superimposed on otherwise seemingly photospheric He I lines, which may form in high-density gas at the inner disk close to the photosphere. Large radial velocity variations continued also during the V/R-quiet years. The broad H-band interferometry gives a disk diameter of (1.72+-0.2) mas (equivalent to 15 stellar radii), position angle of the disk (50+-9) deg and a relatively low disk flattening of 1.66+-0.3. Within the errors the same disk position angle is derived from polarimetric observations and from photocenter shifts across Br gamma. The high-resolution interferometric visibility and phase profiles show a double or even multiple-component structure. A preliminary estimate based on the size of the Br gamma emitting region indicates a large diameter for the disk (tens of stellar radii).
