摘要:

为了对热星的高分辨率和高信噪比(S/N)光谱进行光谱分析,必须使用先进的非局域热力学平衡(NLTE)模型大气。这些大气在很大程度上取决于用于计算它们的原子数据的可靠性。用可靠的Ga Ⅳ-Ⅵ振子强度鉴别了DA型白矮星G191-B2 B和DO型白矮星RE 0503 -289光谱中的Ga谱线,并测定了它们的光球Ga丰度。为了分析G191-B2B和RE 0503 -289的高分辨率和高信噪比紫外观测中出现的Ga谱线,我们在NLTE恒星大气模型中重新计算了Ga Ⅳ- VI振子强度,详细考虑了它们的辐射和碰撞束缚跃迁。我们明确地检测到20个孤立的和6个混合(与其他物种的线)Ga V线的远紫外光谱探测器(FUSE)光谱RE 0503 -289。Ga IV和Ga VI线的识别是不确定的,因为它们很弱,部分被其他线混合。Ga的丰度为3.5 +/- 0.5 × 10 ~(**)-5(质量分数,约为太阳的625倍)。Ga IV / Ga V电离平衡是有效温度的一个非常敏感的指标,在RE 0503 -289中得到了很好的再现。我们在G191-B2B的HST/STIS(哈勃太空望远镜/太空望远镜成像光谱仪)光谱中确定了最强的Ga IV线(1258.801,1338.129 A),并测量了Ga丰度为2.0 +/- 0.5 x 10**-6(约22倍太阳)。对原子数据的可靠测量和计算是恒星大气建模的先决条件。用我们新计算的振子强度很好地再现了两颗白矮星(G191-B2B和RE 0503 -289)紫外光谱中Ga Ⅳ- V谱线的观测轮廓。这使我们第一次能够确定白矮星中光球Ga的丰度。

英文摘要:

For the spectral analysis of high-resolution and high-signal-to-noise (S/N) spectra of hot stars, advanced non-local thermodynamic equilibrium (NLTE) model atmospheres are mandatory. These atmospheres are strongly dependent on the reliability of the atomic data that are used to calculate them. Reliable Ga IV - VI oscillator strengths are used to identify Ga lines in the spectra of the DA-type white dwarf G191-B2B and the DO-type white dwarf RE0503-289 and to determine their photospheric Ga abundances. We newly calculated Ga IV - VI oscillator strengths to consider their radiative and collisional bound-bound transitions in detail in our NLTE stellar-atmosphere models for analyzing of Ga lines exhibited in high-resolution and high-S/N UV observations of G191-B2B and RE0503-289. We unambiguously detected 20 isolated and 6 blended (with lines of other species) Ga V lines in the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) spectrum of RE0503-289. The identification of Ga IV and Ga VI lines is uncertain because they are weak and partly blended by other lines. The determined Ga abundance is 3.5 +/- 0.5 x 10**-5 (mass fraction, about 625 times solar). The Ga IV / GA V ionization equilibrium, which is a very sensitive indicator for the effective temperature, is well reproduced in RE0503-289. We identified the strongest Ga IV lines (1258.801, 1338.129 A) in the HST/STIS (Hubble Space Telescope / Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph) spectrum of G191-B2B and measured a Ga abundance of 2.0 +/- 0.5 x 10**-6 (about 22 times solar). Reliable measurements and calculations of atomic data are a prerequisite for stellar-atmosphere modeling. Observed Ga IV - V line profiles in two white dwarf (G191-B2B and RE0503-289) ultraviolet spectra were well reproduced with our newly calculated oscillator strengths. For the first time, this allowed us to determine the photospheric Ga abundance in white dwarfs.
