北极星的演化现状

Evolutionary status of Polaris

Yu. A. Fadeyev

摘要:

计算了短周期造父变星的流体动力学模型,确定了在第一次和第三次穿越不稳定带时脉动周期随演化时间的变化。用质量为5.2 ~ 6.5Msol的星族I星(X=0.7,Z=0.02)的演化模型和对流核超射参数0.1 <= aov <= 0.3的初始条件,求解了径向恒星脉动的辐射流体动力学方程和湍流对流方程。在周期为4d的造父变星中,第一次穿越不稳定带时的脉动周期变化率比第三次穿越时的脉动周期变化率大50倍以上。北极星被证明是第一次通过不稳定带,并成为基模振荡器。预测和观察到的周期变化率之间的最佳协议,获得了模型的质量为5.4 Msol和超调参数aov=0.25。其辐射热光度和半径分别为L = 1.26e3 Lsol和R = 37.5 Rsol。在HR图中,北极星位于不稳定带的红色边缘。

英文摘要:

Hydrodynamic models of short--period Cepheids were computed to determine the pulsation period as a function of evolutionary time during the first and third crossings of the instability strip. The equations of radiation hydrodynamics and turbulent convection for radial stellar pulsations were solved with the initial conditions obtained from the evolutionary models of population I stars (X=0.7, Z=0.02) with masses from 5.2 to 6.5 Msol and the convective core overshooting parameter 0.1 <= aov <= 0.3. In Cepheids with period of 4 d the rate of pulsation period change during the first crossing of the instability strip is over fifty times larger than that during the third crossing. Polaris is shown to cross the instability strip for the first time and to be the fundamental mode pulsator. The best agreement between the predicted and observed rates of period change was obtained for the model with mass of 5.4 Msol and the overshooting parameter aov=0.25. The bolometric luminosity and radius are L = 1.26e3 Lsol and R = 37.5 Rsol, respectively. In the HR diagram Polaris is located at the red edge of the instability strip.
