摘要:

很少有银河系的翘曲运动学模型能够解释银河系的结构和运动学。这些模型对于研究翘曲的不平衡性和恒星翘曲的节点线的扭曲是必要的,这些已经在气体和尘埃中看到了。我们利用\Gaia ~Data Release 2天体测量资料,研究了银河系弯曲的结构、垂直运动和年龄依赖性,最大观测值达到$G=20$等。我们使用两个人口的银河系中心距离$16$千秒差距,年轻(OB型)和老年人(红巨星分支,RGB)。我们使用的nGC 3 PCM和LonKin方法的基础上的盖亚观测,连同2D投影的位置和自行在银河系平面。我们确认银河系翘曲的年龄依赖性,无论是在位置和运动学,是银河系翘曲的高度约为$0.2$千秒差距的OB样本和$1.$千秒差距的RGB在银河系中心的距离$14$千秒差距。两种方法都发现,OB样本的起始半径为$12\sim 13$ kpc,RGB样本的起始半径为$10\sim 11$ kpc。从RGB样本中,我们发现从银河系中心距离大于$10$ kpc的节点线扭曲远离太阳的反中线向银河系方位角$\sim 180-200^{\circ}$增加半径,但可能受到灭绝。RGB示例显示略微不平衡的恒星扭曲,$\sim 250$ pc位于上下两侧之间。最大的自行线在纬度系统偏移的节点线估计的空间数据,我们的模型预测作为一个运动学签名的不平衡。我们还显示了一个突出的波浪状模式的弯曲模式不同的OB和RGB,和子结构,可能不相关的银河系翘曲,也弯曲模式。GDR 2触发了对复杂运动学模型的需求,这些模型足够灵活,可以结合波浪状模式和S形不平衡扭曲。[删节]

英文摘要:

There are few warp kinematic models of the Galaxy able to characterise structure and kinematics. These models are necessary to study the lopsidedness of the warp and the twisting of the line-of-nodes of the stellar warp, already seen in gas and dust. We use the \Gaia~Data Release 2 astrometric data up to $G=20$mag to characterise the structure of the Galactic warp, the vertical motions and the dependency on the age. We use two populations up to galactocentric distances of $16$kpc, a young (OB-type) and an old (Red Giant Branch, RGB). We use the nGC3 PCM and LonKin methods based on the Gaia observables, together with 2D projections of the positions and proper motions in the Galactic plane. We confirm the age dependency of the Galactic warp, both in positions and kinematics, being the height of the Galactic warp of about $0.2$kpc for the OB sample and of $1.$kpc for the RGB at a galactocentric distance of $14$kpc. Both methods find that the onset radius is $12\sim 13$kpc for the OB sample and $10\sim 11$kpc for the RGB. From the RGB sample, we find from galactocentric distances larger than $10$kpc the line-of-nodes twists away from the Sun-anticentre line towards galactic azimuths $\sim 180-200^{\circ}$ increasing with radius, though possibly influenced by extinction. The RGB sample reveals a slightly lopsided stellar warp with $\sim 250$pc between the up and down sides. The line of maximum of proper motions in latitude is systematically offset from the line-of-nodes estimated from the spatial data, which our models predict as a kinematic signature of lopsidedness. We also show a prominent wave-like pattern of a bending mode different in the OB and RGB, and substructures that might not be related to the Galactic warp nor to a bending mode. GDR2 triggers the need for complex kinematic models, flexible enough to combine both wave-like patterns and an S-shaped lopsided warp.[abridged]
