AI总结:

VFTS 822是一个低金属licity的候选Herbig B[e]星,其研究有助于理解低金属licity环境下质量吸积率的测量及金属licity对吸积率的影响。

摘要:

我们报告了在大麦哲伦星云的30 Doradus恒星形成区域发现B[e]星VFTS 822,该星通过VLT-FLAMES Tarantula调查的光学光谱学和补充红外摄影分类。VFTS 822是一个相对低光度(log L = 4.04 ± 0.25 L☉)的B8[e]星。在本信中,我们评估了VFTS 822的演化状态,并讨论其作为Herbig B[e]星的候选资格。如果该天体确实处于主序前阶段,它将提供一个令人兴奋的机会,通过光谱学在低金属licity下测量质量吸积率,以了解金属licity对吸积率的影响。

英文摘要:

We report the discovery of the B[e] star VFTS 822 in the 30 Doradus star-forming region of the Large Magellanic Cloud, classified by optical spectroscopy from the VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey and complementary infrared photometry. VFTS 822 is a relatively low-luminosity (log $L$ = 4.04 $\pm$ 0.25 $L_{\odot}$) B8[e] star. In this Letter, we evaluate the evolutionary status of VFTS 822 and discuss its candidacy as a Herbig B[e] star. If the object is indeed in the pre-main sequence phase, it would present an exciting opportunity to measure mass accretion rates at low metallicity spectroscopically, to understand the effect of metallicity on accretion rates.
