摘要:

本文提出了一种基于2MASS红外测光和哈尔科夫XPM星表恒星自行相结合的银河棒选星新方法。根据这种方法,在色星等图上预选出红巨星团和红巨星支星,并计算了它们的光度距离。由于恒星的自行是一个更大的速度分散到酒吧和旋臂的指标相比,与圆形轨道的恒星,适用于预选恒星的自行约束,考虑到银河系的旋转允许背景恒星被淘汰。根据对所选恒星的速度及其在银道面上的分布的联合分析,我们确信地确定了最靠近太阳的银道段,其方位为20 $^\circ$-25 $^\circ$,相对于银道中心-太阳方向,半长轴不超过3千秒差距。

英文摘要:

A new method for selecting stars in the Galactic bar based on 2MASS infrared photometry in combination with stellar proper motions from the Kharkiv XPM catalogue has been implemented. In accordance with this method, red clump and red giant branch stars are preselected on the color -- magnitude diagram and their photometric distances are calculated. Since the stellar proper motions are indicators of a larger velocity dispersion toward the bar and the spiral arms compared to the stars with circular orbits, applying the constraints on the proper motions of the preselected stars that take into account the Galactic rotation has allowed the background stars to be eliminated. Based on a joint analysis of the velocities of the selected stars and their distribution on the Galactic plane, we have confidently identified the segment of the Galactic bar nearest to the Sun with an orientation of 20$^\circ$--25$^\circ$ with respect to the Galactic center -- Sun direction and a semimajor axis of no more than 3 kpc.
