摘要:

我们报告的结果,高色散光谱的两个“超级耀斑星”,KIC 9766237和KIC 9944137与斯巴鲁/HDS。超级耀斑星是G型主序星,但与太阳相比,它显示出巨大的耀斑,这是最近在开普勒航天器获得的数据中发现的。虽然根据光度变化,这些恒星中的大多数被认为具有小于10天的自转周期,但本文估计的两个目标的自转周期分别为21.8 d和25.3 d。我们的光谱结果澄清了这些恒星在有效温度,表面重力和金属丰度方面具有与太阳相似的恒星参数。我们得到的投影自转速度与测光自转周期一致,表明有一个相当大的倾角。利用Ca II 8542的吸收线,估算了这些恒星表面的平均磁场强度为1-20 G。我们无法在光谱中检测到任何双星的迹象,尽管需要更多的数据来坚定地排除一个看不见的低质量伴星的存在。这些结果表明,这些超级耀斑恒星的光谱特性非常接近太阳,并支持太阳可能导致超级耀斑的假设。

英文摘要:

We report on the results of high dispersion spectroscopy of two `superflare stars', KIC 9766237, and KIC 9944137 with Subaru/HDS. Superflare stars are G-type main sequence stars, but show gigantic flares compared to the Sun, which have been recently discovered in the data obtained with the Kepler spacecraft. Though most of these stars are thought to have a rotation period shorter than 10 days on the basis of photometric variabilities, the two targets of the present paper are estimated to have a rotation period of 21.8 d, and 25.3 d. Our spectroscopic results clarified that these stars have stellar parameters similar to those of the Sun in terms of the effective temperature, surface gravity, and metallicity. The projected rotational velocities derived by us are consistent with the photometric rotation period, indicating a fairy high inclination angle. The average strength of the magnetic field on the surface of these stars are estimated to be 1-20 G, by using the absorption line of Ca II 8542. We could not detect any hint of binarity in our spectra, although more data are needed to firmly rule out the presence of an unseen low-mass companion. These results claim that the spectroscopic properties of these superflare stars are very close to those of the Sun, and support the hypothesis that the Sun might cause a superflare.
