用盖亚II研究热亚矮星的星族。盖亚DR2热亚亮星目录

The population of hot subdwarf stars studied with Gaia II. The Gaia DR2 catalogue of hot subluminous stars

摘要:

根据欧空局盖亚数据发布2(DR 2)和几个地基,多波段测光调查的数据,我们编制了一个全天空的$39\,800$热亚亮恒星候选人选择盖亚DR 2的颜色,绝对星等和减少自行削减。我们预计大多数候选者是光谱类型为B和O的热亚矮星,其次是B型晚期(HBB)的蓝色水平分支星,热的后AGB星和行星状星云的中心星。由较冷的恒星造成的污染应该是大约$10\%$。该星表的星等仅限于盖亚$G<19\,{\rm mag}$,覆盖整个天空。除了在银道面和LMC/SMC区域,我们预计星表将几乎完成到大约$1.5\,{\rm kpc}$。该目录的主要目的是作为正在进行或计划在未来几年开始的大规模光度和光谱测量的输入目标清单。从长远来看,获得光谱学证实的热亚发光恒星的统计学显著样本是推进对单星和双星恒星演化最新阶段的更详细理解的关键。

英文摘要:

Based on data from the ESA Gaia Data Release 2 (DR2) and several ground-based, multi-band photometry surveys we compiled an all-sky catalogue of $39\,800$ hot subluminous star candidates selected in Gaia DR2 by means of colour, absolute magnitude and reduced proper motion cuts. We expect the majority of the candidates to be hot subdwarf stars of spectral type B and O, followed by blue horizontal branch stars of late B-type (HBB), hot post-AGB stars, and central stars of planetary nebulae. The contamination by cooler stars should be about $10\%$. The catalogue is magnitude limited to Gaia $G<19\,{\rm mag}$ and covers the whole sky. Except within the Galactic plane and LMC/SMC regions, we expect the catalogue to be almost complete up to about $1.5\,{\rm kpc}$. The main purpose of this catalogue is to serve as input target list for the large-scale photometric and spectroscopic surveys which are ongoing or scheduled to start in the coming years. In the long run, securing a statistically significant sample of spectroscopically confirmed hot subluminous stars is key to advance towards a more detailed understanding of the latest stages of stellar evolution for single and binary stars.
