银盘外尘埃的某些性质

Some Properties of Dust Outside the Galactic Disk

George Gontcharov

摘要:

联合使用来自2 MASS和WISE星表的精确的近红外和中红外测光,可以分析距离银河中面3千秒差距的高银河纬度地区(|b| >50)的消光定律和尘埃粒度分布的变化。适用于团簇巨星的消光定律外推的改进方法已被证明是有效的分离样品成分,金属丰度,红化和介质性质的空间变化。探测到的系数E(H-W1)/E(H-Ks)、E(H-W2)/E(H-Ks)和E(H-W3)/E(H-Ks)的空间变化在所有高纬度地区都是相似的,只取决于到银河中面的距离。在银盘外的任何地方,短波长消光与长波长消光的比值都小于银盘内的比值,因此,尘埃的平均粒度较大,而0.5-11微米范围内的粒度分布向粗尘埃移动。具体来说,平均晶粒尺寸最初急剧增加与银河系中平面的距离,然后逐渐减少,接近典型的磁盘值在$|Z|\approx2.4$千秒差距,并进一步,稳定或可能再次增加。所考虑的系数随坐标$Z$变化,周期约为1312 \pm 40秒差距,南北方向每656 \pm 20秒差距重合一次,在中间Z点,它们在南半球和北半球的值之间有显著的负相关关系。因此,至少在5千秒差距以内的高纬度地区,星际介质存在统一的大尺度周期结构。同样的周期性变化也被发现的消光系数Rv内600 pc的银河系中平面通过减少不同的光度数据的不同类的恒星。

英文摘要:

The joint use of accurate near- and mid-infrared photometry from the 2MASS and WISE catalogues has allowed the variations of the extinction law and the dust grain size distribution in high Galactic latitudes (|b|>50) at distances up to 3 kpc from the Galactic midplane to be analyzed. The modified method of extrapolation of the extinction law applied to clump giants has turned out to be efficient for separating the spatial variations of the sample composition, metallicity, reddening, and properties of the medium. The detected spatial variations of the coefficients E(H-W1)/E(H-Ks), E(H-W2)/E(H-Ks), and E(H-W3)/E(H-Ks) are similar for all high latitudes and depend only on the distance from the Galactic midplane. The ratio of short-wavelength extinction to long-wavelength one everywhere outside the Galactic disk has been found to be smaller than that in the disk and, accordingly, the mean dust grain size is larger, while the grain size distribution in the range 0.5-11 microns is shifted toward coarse dust. Specifically, the mean grain size initially increases sharply with distance from the Galactic midplane, then decreases gradually, approaching a value typical of the disk at $|Z|\approx2.4$ kpc, and, further out, stabilizes or may increase again. The coefficients under consideration change with coordinate $Z$ with a period of about 1312\pm40 pc, coinciding every 656\pm20 pc to the south and the north and showing a significant anticorrelation between their values in the southern and northern hemispheres at intermediate Z. Thus, there exists a unified large-scale periodic structure of the interstellar medium at high latitudes within at least 5 kpc. The same periodic variations have also been found for the extinction coefficient Rv within 600 pc of the Galactic midplane through the reduction of different photometric data for stars of different classes.
