伯牙尖星异常的高比率现象

The High Rate of the Boyajian's Star Anomaly as a Phenomenon

Brian C. Lacki

摘要:

Boyajian的明星(KIC 8462852)经历了神秘的,不规则的日食,尚未解释。它似乎也在几年甚至几十年的时间里变暗了。我证明,开普勒探测到持续时间为t_anom的现象,只有当它发生在每个开普勒目标和K2恒星的平均速率>~30 Gyr ^(-1)(t_anom/100 yr)^(-1)时,才是预期的。如果是真的,这种现象在其宿主恒星的生命周期中发生了数百次。被星际介质遮蔽仍然是一个合理的解释,因为它实际上并不影响主星。中间的云与观测到的亚毫米波过量的缺乏一致,但会异常稀释。

英文摘要:

Boyajian's Star (KIC 8462852) undergoes mysterious, irregular eclipses that aren't yet explained. It also appears to have dimmed over a time of several years, possibly decades. I show that Kepler's detection of a phenomenon with a duration of t_anom is only expected if it occurs at a mean rate of >~ 30 Gyr^(-1) (t_anom / 100 yr)^(-1) for each Kepler target and K2 star. If true, the phenomenon occurs hundreds of times during the lifespan of its host stars. Obscuration by the interstellar medium remains a plausible explanation, since it doesn't actually affect the host star. An intervening cloud is consistent with the lack of an observed submillimeter excess but would be abnormally dilute.
