两种超高亮度X射线源NGC4559 X-10和NGC4395 ULX-1的光学对应物

摘要:

我们研究了超铝X射线源NGC 4559 X-10和NGC 4395 ULX-1的光学对应物。在考虑红化后,它们的绝对量值分别为$M_V \approx -5.3$和$M_V \approx -6.2$。NGC 4559 X-10对应的光谱能量分布与F型恒星的光谱很好地拟合,而NGC 4395 ULX-1则具有蓝色幂律光谱。NGC 4395 ULX-1的光谱显示出广泛和可变的HeII~ $λ$ 4686发射,这使得该物体与所有其他光谱研究的ULX一致。使用NGC 4395 ULX-1的Swift存档X射线数据,我们发现了$62.8\pm 2.3$天的周期。源的X射线相位曲线与SS 433的进动曲线非常相似。光学变化的对应物(两个准确的测量之间)的金额为0.10马格。分析16个充分研究ULX同行的绝对星等,人们可能会建议,作为原来的吸积率下降(但仍然是超临界),光学光度的风变得暗淡和捐助者的明星占主导地位。然而,观察偏倚也可能影响分布。

英文摘要:

We study the optical counterparts of ultraluminous X-ray sources NGC4559 X-10 and NGC4395 ULX-1. Their absolute magnitudes, after taking the reddening into account, are $M_V \approx -5.3$ and $M_V \approx -6.2$, respectively. The spectral energy distribution of the NGC4559 X-10 counterpart is well fitted by a spectrum of an F-type star, whereas NGC4395 ULX-1 has a blue power-law spectrum. Optical spectroscopy of NGC4395 ULX-1 has shown a broad and variable HeII~$λ$4686 emission, which puts this object in line with all the other spectrally-studied ULXs. Using the Swift archival X-ray data for NGC4395 ULX-1, we have found a period of $62.8\pm 2.3$ days. The X-ray phase curve of the source is very similar to the precession curve of SS433. The optical variation of the counterpart (between two accurate measurements) amounts to 0.10 mag. Analyzing the absolute magnitudes of 16 well-studied ULX counterparts one may suggest that as the original accretion rate decreases (but nevertheless remains supercritical), the optical luminosity of the wind becomes dimmer and the donor star dominates. However, an observational bias may also influence the distribution.
