热DO白矮星的金属丰度

Metal Abundances in Hot DO White Dwarfs

K. Werner, T. Rauch, E. Ringat, J. W. Kruk

摘要:

热DO白矮星RE 0503 -289中相对较高的碳丰度表明它是PG 1159恒星的后代。这是证实了最近检测到的极高丰度的trans-Fe元素,源于S-过程核合成的前体AGB星,疏浚了后期的He壳闪光,并可能通过辐射悬浮放大。另一方面,已知最热的DO白矮星,KPD 0005 +5106,不可能是从PG 1159恒星演化而来,而是代表了一个独特的富氦演化序列,可能起源于一个双白矮星合并。

英文摘要:

The relatively high abundance of carbon in the hot DO white dwarf RE0503-289 indicates that it is a descendant of a PG1159 star. This is corroborated by the recent detection of the extremely high abundances of trans-Fe elements which stem from s-process nucleosynthesis in the precursor AGB star, dredged up by a late He-shell flash and possibly amplified by radiative levitation. On the other hand, the hottest known DO white dwarf, KPD0005+5106, cannot have evolved from a PG1159 star but represents a distinct He-rich evolutionary sequence that possibly originates from a binary white dwarf merger.
