模拟RS蛇夫座星周介质及其与Ia型超新星的联系

Modelling the circumstellar medium in RS Ophiuchi and its link to Type Ia supernovae

Richard A. Booth, Shazrene Mohamed, Philipp Podsiadlowski

摘要:

最近对在一些Ia型超新星中检测到的窄的、可变的吸收线的解释表明,它们的祖先被致密的星周物质包围。在共生的复发新星系统RS Oph中检测到类似的变化,该系统每20年经历一次热核爆发,使其成为研究这些线起源的理想候选者。为此,我们提出了多个质量转移新星周期在RS Oph的模拟。我们发现,静态传质产生了密集的,赤道流出,即,向双星轨道平面集中,在白矮星周围形成吸积盘。球状新星爆发与这些非球状星周结构的相互作用产生了双极外流,类似于2006年HST爆发的图像。为了产生与观测一致的电离结构,红巨星的质量损失率必须达到$5 \times 10^{-7}\,\mathrm{M}_{\odot}\,\mathrm{yr}^{-1}$。模拟还产生了极吸积流,这可能解释了静态H α线和硬X射线的宽翼。通过比较模拟的吸收线剖面观测2006年爆发,我们能够确定哪些组件出现在风中,哪些是由于新星。我们探讨可能的行为的吸收线轮廓,因为他们可能会出现超新星发生在一个系统,如RS Oph。我们的模型显示出与SN 2006 X等超新星的相似性,但需要高质量损失率($\dot{M} \sim 10^{-6}$到$10^{-5}\,\mathrm{M_\odot}\,\mathrm{yr}^{-1}$)来解释SN 2006 X的变化。

英文摘要:

Recent interpretations of narrow, variable absorption lines detected in some Type Ia supernovae suggest that their progenitors are surrounded by dense, circumstellar material. Similar variations detected in the symbiotic recurrent nova system RS Oph, which undergoes thermonuclear outbursts every ~20 years, making it an ideal candidate to investigate the origin of these lines. To this end, we present simulations of multiple mass transfer-nova cycles in RS Oph. We find that the quiescent mass transfer produces a dense, equatorial outflow, i.e., concentrated towards the binary orbital plane, and an accretion disc forms around the white dwarf. The interaction of a spherical nova outburst with these aspherical circumstellar structures produces a bipolar outflow, similar to that seen in HST imaging of the 2006 outburst. In order to produce an ionization structure that is consistent with observations, a mass-loss rate of $5 \times 10^{-7}\,\mathrm{M}_{\odot}\,\mathrm{yr}^{-1}$ from the red giant is required. The simulations also produce a polar accretion flow, which may explain the broad wings of the quiescent H α line and hard X-rays. By comparing simulated absorption line profiles to observations of the 2006 outburst, we are able to determine which components arise in the wind and which are due to the novae. We explore the possible behaviour of absorption line profiles as they may appear should a supernova occur in a system like RS Oph. Our models show similarities to supernovae like SN 2006X, but require a high mass-loss rate, $\dot{M} \sim 10^{-6}$ to $10^{-5}\,\mathrm{M_\odot}\,\mathrm{yr}^{-1}$, to explain the variability in SN 2006X.
