摘要:

通过利用两组高分辨率图像获得的HST ACS/WFC超过10年的基线,我们已经测量了恒星系统Terzan 5中约70,000颗恒星的相对自行。结果证实了系统中发现的具有不同铁丰度的三个亚群体的成员。该系统的轨道是从它的绝对自行的第一次估计中推导出来的,通过使用核球星作为参考来获得。在轴对称银河系模型中,这个轨道的积分结果排除了这个星系团的任何外部吸积源。众所周知,Terzan 5具有与银河系隆起相似的化学成分;我们的发现支持星系团和隆起之间的运动学联系,进一步加强了Terzan 5是起源于隆起的原始团块之一的化石遗迹的可能性。

英文摘要:

By exploiting two sets of high-resolution images obtained with HST ACS/WFC over a baseline of ~10 years we have measured relative proper motions of ~70,000 stars in the stellar system Terzan 5. The results confirm the membership of the three sub-populations with different iron abudances discovered in the system. The orbit of the system has been derived from a first estimate of its absolute proper motion, obtained by using bulge stars as reference. The results of the integration of this orbit within an axisymmetric Galactic model exclude any external accretion origin for this cluster. Terzan 5 is known to have chemistry similar to the Galactic bulge; our findings support a kinematic link between the cluster and the bulge, further strengthening the possibility that Terzan 5 is the fossil remnant of one of the pristine clumps that originated the bulge.
