HD 4915:一个蒙德最小候选人

HD 4915: A Maunder Minimum Candidate

Shivani P. Shah, Jason T. Wright, Howard Isaacson, Andrew Howard, Jason L. Curtis

摘要:

利用Keck I/HIRES摄谱仪测量的\ion{Ca}{2} H & K谱线强度研究了HD 4915的磁活动周期。这颗恒星从2006年至今一直是加州行星搜索计划的一部分。我们注意到磁场活动周期的振幅在下降,这种模式表明恒星进入了磁场大极小(MGM)状态,让人想起太阳的蒙德和道尔顿极小。我们建议对这颗恒星进行进一步的监测,以确认发电机的最小值性质,这将有助于深入了解太阳色球层和全球磁场在其最小值期间的状态。我们还建议继续观测H \& K发射线,地面或空间测光观测,以估计太阳黑子的覆盖范围。

英文摘要:

We study the magnetic activity cycle of HD 4915 using the \ion{Ca}{2} H \& K emission line strengths measured by Keck I/HIRES spectrograph. The star has been observed as a part of California Planet Search Program from 2006 to present. We note decreasing amplitude in the magnetic activity cycle, a pattern suggesting the star's entry into a Magnetic Grand Minimum (MGM) state, reminiscent of the Sun's Maunder and Dalton Minima. We recommend further monitoring of the star to confirm the grand minimum nature of the dynamo, which would provide insight into the state of the Sun's chromosphere and the global magnetic field during its grand minima. We also recommend continued observations of H \& K emission lines, and ground or space based photometric observations to estimate the sunspot coverage.
