尘埃碎片的赫歇尔观测

Herschel Observations of Dusty Debris Disks

摘要:

我们目前的结果从两个赫歇尔观测计划使用的光电探测器阵列相机和光谱仪。在三次独立的活动中,我们获得了70,100和160微米的24颗恒星的赫歇尔数据。我们选择了已知或怀疑有星周尘埃的恒星,这些恒星是基于先前用IRAS或斯皮策测量的过量红外发射,并使用赫歇尔来检查尘埃的长波长特性。发现有15颗恒星没有受到背景辐射源的污染,并且拥有红外辐射,这很可能是由于星周碎片盘。我们分析了这些碎片盘的性质,以更好地了解负责灰尘产生和清除的物理机制。7个目标在赫歇尔图像中被空间分辨。根据对它们的光谱能量分布的拟合,九个圆盘似乎有两个温度分量。在这九种情况中,有三种情况下,较温暖的尘埃成分可能是瞬态过程的结果,而不是稳态碰撞级联的结果。四颗恒星上的尘埃带可能是由一颗看不见的行星搅动的,值得进一步研究。

英文摘要:

We present results from two Herschel observing programs using the Photodetector Array Camera and Spectrometer. During three separate campaigns, we obtained Herschel data for 24 stars at 70, 100, and 160 microns. We chose stars that were already known or suspected to have circumstellar dust based on excess infrared emission previously measured with IRAS or Spitzer, and used Herschel to examine long-wavelength properties of the dust. Fifteen stars were found to be uncontaminated by background sources, and possess infrared emission most likely due to a circumstellar debris disk. We analyzed the properties of these debris disks to better understand the physical mechanisms responsible for dust production and removal. Seven targets were spatially resolved in the Herschel images. Based on fits to their spectral energy distributions, nine disks appear to have two temperature components. Of these nine, in three cases, the warmer dust component is likely the result of a transient process rather than a steady state collisional cascade. The dust belts at four stars are likely stirred by an unseen planet, and merit further investigation.
