IRAS 16253-2429:通过喷流动力学识别的第一个原棕矮星双星候选者

IRAS 16253-2429: the First Proto-Brown Dwarf Binary Candidate Identified through Dynamics of Jets

摘要:

褐矮星的形成机制一直是恒星形成中的一个难题,因为分子云中的典型金斯质量太大,无法形成这些亚恒星天体。要回答这个问题,关键是要在嵌入阶段研究BD。IRAS 16253-2429被归类为一个内部光度为0.1 Lsun的极低光度天体(VeLLO)。VeLLO被认为是质量非常低的原恒星,甚至是原BD。我们利用IRAM 30 m望远镜和APEX望远镜以及SMA观测了由IRAS 16253-2429驱动的CO(2-1)、(6-5)和(7-6)中的喷流/外流,以研究其动力学特征和物理性质。我们的SMA地图揭示了两个原恒星喷流,表明存在一个原双星系统所暗示的旋进喷流中检测到的H2排放。我们发现一个摆动的模式,在位置-速度图沿射流轴,这可能是由于双轨道运动。在此基础上,我们推导出该双星目前的质量为~0.032 Msun。在低包层质量的情况下,IRAS 16253-2429将形成一个可能由一个或两个BD组成的双星。此外,我们发现,外流力以及质量吸积率是非常低的基础上的多跃迁CO的观测,这表明,最终的质量的二进制组件是在恒星/亚恒星的边界。由于IRAS 16253位于一个孤立的环境中,我们认为BD可以像低质量恒星一样通过碎片和坍缩形成。

英文摘要:

The formation mechanism of brown dwarfs (BDs) is one of the long-standing problems in star formation because the typical Jeans mass in molecular clouds is too large to form these substellar objects. To answer this question, it is crucial to study a BD at the embedded phase. IRAS 16253-2429 is classified as a very low luminosity object (VeLLO) with internal luminosity 0.1 Lsun. VeLLOs are believed to be very low-mass protostars or even proto-BDs. We observed the jet/outflow driven by IRAS 16253-2429 in CO (2-1), (6-5), and (7-6) using the IRAM 30 m and APEX telescopes and the SMA in order to study its dynamical features and physical properties. Our SMA map reveals two protostellar jets, indicating the existence of a proto-binary system as implied by the precessing jet detected in H2 emission. We detect a wiggling pattern in the position-velocity diagrams along the jet axes, which is likely due to the binary orbital motion. Based on this, we derive the current mass of the binary as ~0.032 Msun. Given the low envelope mass, IRAS 16253-2429 will form a binary that probably consist of one or two BDs. Furthermore, we found that the outflow force as well as the mass accretion rate are very low based on the multi-transition CO observations, which suggests that the final masses of the binary components are at the stellar/substellar boundary. Since IRAS 16253 is located in an isolated environment, we suggest that BDs can form through fragmentation and collapse like low-mass stars.
