摘要:

我们对共生星AG Peg的XMM-牛顿观测进行了分析,该观测是在其2015年爆发结束后获得的。AG Peg的X射线发射较软,且为热源。AG Peg是共生星X射线源中的β类X射线源,其X射线谱与双温光学薄等离子体辐射(kT_1 ~ 0.14 keV和kT_2 ~ 0.66 keV)匹配良好。β类源的X射线发射被认为是双星系统中碰撞星风(CSW)的产物。如果我们采用CSW图像,理论CSW谱与AG Peg的XMM-牛顿谱的观测性质匹配得很好。然而,我们需要一个坚实的证据表明,一个足够热的星风存在于爆发后的状态AG Peg证明的有效性CSW图片的共生双星。未检测到短期X射线变异性,而AG Peg的UV发射在分钟和小时的时间尺度上显示出随机变异性(闪烁)。

英文摘要:

We present an analysis of the XMM-Newton observation of the symbiotic star AG Peg, obtained after the end of its 2015 outburst. The X-ray emission of AG Peg is soft and of thermal origin. AG Peg is an X-ray source of class beta of the X-ray sources amongst the symbiotic stars, whose X-ray spectrum is well matched by a two-temperature optically-thin plasma emission (kT_1 ~ 0.14 keV and kT_2 ~ 0.66 keV). The X-ray emission of the class beta sources is believed to originate from colliding stellar winds (CSW) in binary system. If we adopt the CSW picture, the theoretical CSW spectra match well the observed properties of the XMM-Newton spectra of AG Peg. However, we need a solid evidence that a massive-enough hot-star wind is present in the post-outburst state of AG Peg to proof the validity of the CSW picture for this symbiotic binary. No short-term X-ray variability is detected while the UV emission of AG Peg shows stochastic variability (flickering) on time-scales of minutes and hours.
