摘要:

我们专注于早期的B型恒星与氦过剩,其中存在的磁场以前没有被报道。这些测量是使用高光谱分辨率分光偏振观测进行的,这些观测是由安装在ESO La Silla 3.6米望远镜上的高精度径向速度行星搜索器(HARPS)以偏振模式获得的。首次发现了5颗富氦星的纵向磁场。对于一个靶,HD 58260,文献中已经报道了1.8 kG量级的纵向磁场的存在,但是磁场在几十年内保持恒定。我们使用2015年3月获得的偏振光谱进行的测量表明,与以前的工作中报告的测量相比,纵向磁场强度略有下降。在可用的光度数据中搜索周期调制,使我们能够在CPD-27 $^{\circ}$ 1791的ASAS 3存档数据中自信地建立2.64119 $\pm$ 0.00420 d的周期。其他五颗星的时间无法确定。所获得的结果支持的情况下,所有的氦丰富的恒星是可检测的磁性和形成的Ap星现象的延伸到更高的温度。

英文摘要:

We focus on early-B type stars with helium overabundance, for which the presence of a magnetic field has not previously been reported. The measurements were carried out using high-spectral-resolution spectropolarimetric observations obtained with the High Accuracy Radial velocity Planet Searcher (HARPS) in polarimetric mode, installed at the ESO La Silla 3.6m telescope. For five He-rich stars, the longitudinal magnetic field was detected for the first time. For one target, HD58260, the presence of a longitudinal magnetic field of the order of 1.8 kG has already been reported in the literature, but the magnetic field has remained constant over tens of years. Our measurement carried out using the polarimetric spectra obtained in 2015 March indicates a slight decrease of the longitudinal magnetic field strength compared to measurements reported in previous works. A search for periodic modulation in available photometric data allowed us to confidently establish a period of 2.64119$\pm$0.00420 d in archival ASAS3 data for CPD -27$^{\circ}$ 1791. No period could be determined for the other five stars. The obtained results support the scenario that all He-rich stars are detectably magnetic and form an extension of the Ap star phenomenon to higher temperatures.
