摘要:

长期观测邻近恒星的径向速度和加速度已被证明是直接探测双星和亚恒星伴星的有效方法。预计附近RV趋势系统的一部分由同样诱导系统多普勒信号的紧凑物体组成。在本文中,我们报告发现一个白矮星伴星发现附近的($π= 28.297 \pm 0.066$ mas)G9 V星HD 169889的轨道。利用凯克的NIRC2和LBT的LMIRCam进行的高对比度成像观测揭示了角距为0.8“(28 au)的($ΔH = 9.76 \pm 0.16$,$ΔL' = 9.60 \pm 0.03$)伴星。13年的精确多普勒观测揭示了RV时间序列中陡峭的线性加速度,并对$M \geq 0.369 \pm 0.010 M_{\odot}$的伴星质量施加了动力学约束。这一“类白矮星”系统增加了对怀疑在太阳附近失踪的白矮星同伴的普查。

英文摘要:

Monitoring the long-term radial velocity (RV) and acceleration of nearby stars has proven an effective method for directly detecting binary and substellar companions. Some fraction of nearby RV trend systems are expected to be comprised of compact objects that likewise induce a systemic Doppler signal. In this paper, we report the discovery of a white dwarf companion found to orbit the nearby ($π= 28.297 \pm 0.066$ mas) G9 V star HD 169889. High-contrast imaging observations using NIRC2 at Keck and LMIRCam at the LBT uncover the ($ΔH = 9.76 \pm 0.16$, $ΔL' = 9.60 \pm 0.03$) companion at an angular separation of 0.8'' (28 au). Thirteen years of precise Doppler observations reveal a steep linear acceleration in RV time series and place a dynamical constraint on the companion mass of $M \geq 0.369 \pm 0.010 M_{\odot}$. This "Sirius-like" system adds to the census of white dwarf companions suspected to be missing in the solar neighborhood.
