摘要:

年轻星协的低质量成员表现出广泛的自转周期。这样的扩散源于质量和初始旋转周期的分布。然而,多样性也可以发挥重要作用。我们调查的物理同伴在缩短原始光盘寿命所发挥的作用。我们已经编制了年轻的2500万年β-风景如画的协会的低质量成员的最广泛的名单。我们已经测量了所有成员的旋转周期,并使用更新的UVWXYZ组件来评估其成员资格。根据真实会员和候选会员的多重身份,建立了区分真实会员和候选会员的轮换周期分布。我们发现,在宽轨道(>80天文单位)的多个系统的单星和组件的旋转周期,表现出一个明确的序列所产生的质量分布。在接近轨道(小于80天文单位)的多个系统的所有组成部分的自转周期都比相同质量的单一对应物短得多。与较年轻的1300万年h/星团和较老的4000万年疏散星团/星协NGC 2547、IC 2391、Argus和IC 2602以及13000万年的昂星团的比较表明,尽管角动量演化模型很好地再现了F-G星的演化,但对于慢K星和早M星,情况并非如此。最后,我们发现它们的光变曲线的振幅既不与自转相关,也不与质量相关。一旦单个恒星和多个系统的宽成分与多个系统的近成分分离,旋转周期分布就表现出对质量的明确依赖,这使得可以与年轻或年老的关联/星团的类似分布进行有意义的比较。这种干净的分布允许使用恒星自转周期作为年龄指标,对F和G型恒星有意义。

英文摘要:

Low-mass members of young stellar associations exhibit a wide spread of rotation periods. Such a spread originates from distributions of masses and initial rotation periods. However, multiplicity can also play a significant role. We investigate the role played by physical companions in shortening the primordial disc lifetime. We have compiled the most extensive list of low-mass members of the young 25-Myr beta Pictoris association. We have measured the rotation periods of about all members and used updated UVWXYZ components to assess their membership. We built the rotation period distribution distinguishing between bona fide members and candidate members and according to their multiplicity status. We found that single stars and components of multiple systems in wide orbits (>80 AU) have rotation periods that exhibit a well defined sequence arising from mass distribution. All components of multiple systems in close orbits (<80 AU) have rotation periods significantly shorter than their equal-mass single counterparts. A comparison with the younger 13 Myr h Per cluster and with the older 40-Myr open clusters/stellar associations NGC2547, IC2391, Argus, and IC2602 and the 130-Myr Pleiades shows that whereas the evolution of F-G stars is well reproduced by angular momentum evolution models, this is not the case for the slow K and early-M stars. Finally, we found that the amplitude of their light curves is correlated neither with rotation nor with mass. Once single stars and wide components of multiple systems are separated from close components of multiple systems, the rotation period distributions exhibit a well defined dependence on mass that allows to make a meaningful comparison with similar distributions of either younger or older associations/clusters. Such cleaned distributions allow to use the stellar rotation period as age indicator, meaningfully for F and G type stars.
