摘要:

NGC 6819是一个位于开普勒视野内的人口稠密的老疏散星团。一个CCD调查的uvbyCaHbeta系统上的集群,再加上自行成员,已被用来隔离382个高度可能的,单星未演变的主序成员超过20弧分的领域集中在集群。从278个F矮星的高精度测光结果中,得到E(b-y)= 0.117 +/- 0.005或E(B-V)= 0.160 +/- 0.007的平均红化值,其中平均红化值的标准误差包括内部误差和测光零点不确定度。在红化固定的情况下,来自相同278颗恒星的金属丰度为[Fe/H] = -0.116 +/- 0.101(来自m_1)和-0.055 +/- 0.033(来自hk),加权平均值为[Fe/H] = -0.06 +/- 0.04,其中引用的平均值的标准误差包括来自光度散射的内部误差加上光度零点的不确定性。如果用每个恒星的个别红化值来计算金属丰度,以解释星团表面的潜在红化变化,类似的结果是不变的。在颜色星等图的转折处的星团成员被用来测试和确认最近发现的整个星团表面变红的变化,变化的可能范围为Delta[E(B-V)] = 0.045 +/-0.015。与通常采用的值相比,红化程度略高,[Fe/H]较低,等时线拟合得出年龄为2.3 +/- 0.2 Gyr,表观模量(m-M)= 12.40 +/-0.12。

英文摘要:

NGC 6819 is a richly populated, older open cluster situated within the Kepler field. A CCD survey of the cluster on the uvbyCaHbeta system, coupled with proper-motion membership, has been used to isolate 382 highly probable, single-star unevolved main-sequence members over a 20-arcminute field centered on the cluster. From 278 F dwarfs with high precision photometry in all indices, a mean reddening of E(b-y) = 0.117 +/- 0.005 or E(B-V) = 0.160 +/- 0.007 is derived, where the standard errors of the mean include both internal errors and the photometric zero-point uncertainty. With the reddening fixed, the metallicity derived from the same 278 stars is [Fe/H] = -0.116 +/- 0.101 from m_1 and -0.055 +/- 0.033 from hk, for a weighted average of [Fe/H] = -0.06 +/- 0.04, where the quoted standard errors of the mean values include the internal errors from the photometric scatter plus the uncertainty in the photometric zero points. If metallicity is derived using individual reddening values for each star to account for potential reddening variation across the face of the cluster, the analogous result is unchanged. The cluster members at the turnoff of the color-magnitude diagram are used to test and confirm the recently discovered variation in reddening across the face of the cluster, with a probable range in the variation of Delta[E(B-V)] = 0.045 +/-0.015. With the slightly higher reddening and lower [Fe/H] compared to commonly adopted values, isochrone fitting leads to an age of 2.3 +/- 0.2 Gyr for an apparent modulus of (m-M) = 12.40 +/-0.12.
