主吸积阶段末期的盘质量:I类原恒星的CARMA观测和多波长模拟

Disk Masses at the end of the main accretion phase: CARMA Observations and Multi-Wavelength Modeling of Class I Protostars

J. A. Eisner

摘要:

我们目前的成像观测在1.3毫米波长的I类原恒星在金牛座恒星形成区,获得的CARMA干涉仪。在10个物体的初始样本中,我们检测并成像了9个物体的毫米波长发射。其中的9个被分解成两个来源,并详细分析这个二元原恒星系统被推迟到未来的论文。对于其余8个对象,我们使用CARMA数据来确定毫米波发射的基本形态。结合毫米数据与0.9微米的散射光,斯皮策IRS光谱,和宽带SED(所有从文献)的图像,我们试图确定拱星材料的结构。我们认为模型包括拱星盘和信封,并约束这些组件的质量(和其他结构参数)。我们表明,在我们的样本中的磁盘质量跨度范围从<0.01 to >0.1兆太阳。我们的样本的磁盘质量显着高于更先进的II类对象的样本。因此,I类盘的质量可能提供了一个更准确的估计初始质量预算的恒星和行星形成。然而,这里确定的盘质量低于巨型行星形成理论的要求。质量也显得太低的引力不稳定性,这可能导致高质量吸积率。即使在这些I类盘中,大量的粒子增长也可能将盘的大部分质量隐藏在难以看到的较大物体中。

英文摘要:

We present imaging observations at 1.3 mm wavelength of Class I protostars in the Taurus star forming region, obtained with the CARMA interferometer. Of an initial sample of 10 objects, we detected and imaged millimeter wavelength emission from 9. One of the 9 is resolved into two sources, and detailed analysis of this binary protostellar system is deferred to a future paper. For the remaining 8 objects, we use the CARMA data to determine the basic morphology of the millimeter emission. Combining the millimeter data with 0.9 micron images of scattered light, Spitzer IRS spectra, and broadband SEDs (all from the literature), we attempt to determine the structure of the circumstellar material. We consider models including both circumstellar disks and envelopes, and constrain the masses (and other structural parameters) of each of these components. We show that the disk masses in our sample span a range from <0.01 to >0.1 Msun. The disk masses for our sample are significantly higher than for samples of more evolved Class II objects. Thus, Class I disk masses probably provide a more accurate estimate of the initial mass budget for star and planet formation. However, the disk masses determined here are lower than required by theories of giant planet formation. The masses also appear too low for gravitational instability, which could lead to high mass accretion rates. Even in these Class I disks, substantial particle growth may have hidden much of the disk mass in hard-to-see larger bodies.
