用地震探测器研究脉动白矮星核成分的可能性

On the possibility of using seismic probes to study the core composition in pulsating white dwarfs

J. P. Faria, M. J. P. F. G. Monteiro

摘要:

白矮星对应于太阳型恒星恒星演化的最后阶段。在这些天体中,核燃烧产生能量的过程已经结束,这意味着白矮星在接下来的10亿年里会简单地冷却下来。现在我们知道,白矮星在不稳定带中度过了一段冷却历史。具有氢气氛的脉动白矮星(称为DAV或ZZ Ceti星)显示出周期在100 - 1200 s范围内的非径向振荡模式。在这项工作中,我们试图说明如何振荡的p-模式频率的理想化的白矮星模型的变化作为一个不同的化学成分的核心的结果,与确定的化学分层从地震观测的最终目标。内部结构中声学毛刺的存在导致频率中的周期性信号。我们发现,这个信号取决于化学分层/组成的核心的形式,可以分析建模。

英文摘要:

White dwarfs correspond to the final stages of stellar evolution of solar-type stars. In these objects, production of energy by nuclear burning has ended which means that a white dwarf simply cools down over the course of the next billion years. It is now known that white dwarfs spend some of their cooling history in an instability strip. The pulsating white dwarfs with an hydrogen atmosphere (called DAV or ZZ Ceti stars) show non-radial oscillation modes with periods in the range 100 - 1200s. In this work we try to illustrate how the oscillation p-mode frequencies of idealized white dwarf models change as the result of a different chemical composition in the core, with the ultimate goal of determining the chemical stratification from seismic observations. The presence of acoustic glitches in the internal structure results in a periodic signal in the frequencies. We find that this signal depends on the chemical stratification/composition of the core in a form that can be analytically modelled.
