PNe低电离结构中激波激发H $_2$的证明

Proof of shock-excited H$_2$ in low-ionization structures of PNe

Stavros Akras, Denise R. Gonçalves, Gerardo Ramos-Larios

摘要:

本文报道了在行星状星云低电离结构中探测到的近红外H $_2$线辐射。这里给出了使用NIRI@Gemini-North获得的K 4-47和NGC 7662的最深、高角分辨率H $_2$ 1-0 S(1)在2.122 $μ$ m处和H $_2$ 2-1 S(1)在2.248 $μ$ m处的图像。K 4-47揭示了显着的高准直双极结构。H $_2$发射来自双极流出物的壁和这些流出物尖端的一对结。H $_2$ 1-0 S(1)/2-1 S(1)线比为$\sim$ 7- 1 - 0,这表明激波相互作用是由外流中气体的横向膨胀和高速结引起的。最强的谱线H $_2$ v=1-0 S(1)也在位于椭圆PN NGC 7662外壳外围的几个LIS中检测到,而在H $_2$ v=2-1 S(1)谱线中只检测到四个结。这些结的H $_2$ v=1-0 S(1)/v=2-1 S(1)值在2和3之间。这些数据证实了分子气体在高速(K 4-47)和慢速移动的LISs(NGC 7662)中的存在。K 4-47中的H $_2$发射是由激波提供动力的,而NGC 7662中的H发射是由中心恒星的光电离提供动力的。此外,在H $_2$ v=1-0 S(1)/H $_2$ v=2-1 S(1)和[N II]/H $α$线比率之间发现了可能的相关性。

英文摘要:

We report the detection of near-IR H$_2$ lines emission from low-ionization structures (LISs) in planetary nebulae. The deepest, high-angular resolution H$_2$ 1-0 S(1) at 2.122 $μ$m, and H$_2$ 2-1 S(1) at 2.248 $μ$m images of K 4-47 and NGC 7662, obtained using NIRI@Gemini-North, are presented here. K 4-47 reveals a remarkable high-collimated bipolar structure. The H$_2$ emission emanates from the walls of the bipolar outflows and a pair of knots at the tips of these outflows. The H$_2$ 1-0 S(1)/2-1 S(1) line ratio is $\sim$7-10 which indicates shock interaction due to both the lateral expansion of the gas in the outflows and the high-velocity knots. The strongest line, H$_2$ v=1-0 S(1), is also detected in several LISs located at the periphery of the outer shell of the elliptical PN NGC 7662, whereas only four knots are detected in the H$_2$ v=2-1 S(1) line. These knots have H$_2$ v=1-0 S(1)/v=2-1 S(1) values between 2 and 3. These data confirm the presence of molecular gas in both highly (K 4-47) and slowly moving LISs (NGC 7662). The H$_2$ emission in K 4-47 is powered by shocks, whereas in NGC 7662 is due to photo-ionization by the central star. Moreover, a likely correlation is found between the H$_2$ v=1-0 S(1)/H$_2$ v=2-1 S(1) and [N II]/H$α$ line ratios.
