摘要:

对过渡盘的观测使我们了解了行星和行星系统(如我们自己的行星系统)的形成。但在识别这些来源时必须小心:赫歇尔空间天文台的更高空间分辨率为观察到的远红外和亚毫米波过量的起源提供了新的观点。目的:我们回顾了以前已知的过渡盘的性质在变色龙I恒星形成区域与赫歇尔数据。方法:分析年轻恒星T54的Herschel PACS和SPIRE图像及其辅助图像。我们还分析了它的光谱能量分布和指示,从光学和中红外光谱。结果:在距T54 196°的PACS 70 μm图像中,我们检测到了约6”的扩展发射。在较长波长(PACS 100、160、SPIRE 250和350 μm)下探测到的辐射也偏离了恒星的位置。这表明在SED的远红外部分观察到的过量与T54并不完全相关。结论:赫歇尔图像显示,T54中的远红外线过量不是由于过渡盘,而是由于源西南方向的扩展发射。该物体在中红外波长处仍然显示出点状且缩小的多余部分,但如果没有更高的空间分辨率数据,就无法限制其起源。然而,不同的迹象指向一个演变的磁盘或扩展未解决的排放接近源。

英文摘要:

Context: Observations of transitional disks give us an understanding of the formation of planets and planetary systems such as our own. But care must be taken in the identification of such sources: the higher spatial resolution of the Herschel Space Observatory provides a new view on the origin of the far-infrared and sub-millimeter excesses observed. Aims: We review the nature of previously known transitional disks in the Chamaeleon I star-forming region with Herschel data. Methods: We analyze Herschel PACS and SPIRE images of the young star T54 together with ancillary images. We also analyze its spectral energy distribution and indications from optical and mid-infrared spectroscopy. Results: We detect extended emission in the PACS 70 μm image ~6" off source at a position angle of 196° from T54. The emission detected at longer wavelength (PACS 100, 160, SPIRE 250 and 350 μm) is also offset from the position of the star. This suggests that the excess observed in the far-infrared part of the SED is not fully associated with T54. Conclusions: Herschel images show that the far-infrared excess seen in T54 is not due to a transitional disk but to extended emission south-west of the source. The object still shows point-like and now downscaled excess at mid-infrared wavelengths, but its origin cannot be constrained without higher spatial resolution data. However, different indications point towards an evolved disk or extended unresolved emission close to the source.
