外银盘A星和F星在两束深射电束中的全空间运动研究

A study of full space motions of outer Galactic disk A and F stars in two deep pencil-beams

A. Harris, J. E. Drew, M. Monguió

摘要:

A星和F星可以用作外银河系盘运动学的探测器:在这里,我们扩展了Harris等人的工作。(2018)通过将他们的A/F样本与Gaia DR 2交叉匹配来引入自行。这些数据与已经测量的径向速度和分光光度距离相结合,以获得完整的空间运动。我们用这1173颗恒星的样本,分别位于两个平行光束的视线(l= 178度和l= 118度),对银河系的速度场进行了采样,得到了R_G=15 kpc的结果。我们发现有显着的差异,在所有三个(径向,方位角和垂直)的运动分量之间的两个方向。旋转曲线在反中心方向上大致平坦,证实并扩展了Kawata等人的结果。(2018 a)由于我们的分光光度距离尺度的更大范围。然而,在l= 118度时,圆周速度从R_G= 10.5kpc向外增加,径向运动有一个比l= 178度时更明显的梯度。此外,A星的径向运动与F星相差约10 km/s。我们讨论我们的研究结果的背景下,扰动可能负责的趋势,如中央酒吧,旋臂,翘曲和外部卫星。我们在l= 178度的结果与先前对反中心K巨星的研究大致一致,但在英仙座区域l= 118度的运动学还不容易与棒臂或旋臂扰动相一致。

英文摘要:

A and F stars can be used as probes of outer Galactic disk kinematics: here we extend the work of Harris et al. (2018) by crossmatching their A/F sample with Gaia DR2 to bring in proper motions. These are combined with the already measured radial velocities and spectro-photometric distances to obtain full space motions. We use this sample of 1173 stars, located in two pencil-beam sightlines (l=178deg and l=118deg), to sample the Galactocentric velocity field out to almost R_G=15 kpc. We find there are significant differences in all three (radial, azimuthal and vertical) kinematic components between the two directions. The rotation curve is roughly flat in the anticentre direction, confirming and extending the result of Kawata et al. (2018a) thanks to the greater reach of our spectro-photometric distance scale. However at l=118deg the circular velocity rises outwards from R_G=10.5 kpc and there is a more pronounced gradient in radial motion than is seen at l=178deg. Furthermore, the A star radial motion differs from the F stars by ~10 km/s. We discuss our findings in the context of perturbers potentially responsible for the trends, such as the central bar, spiral arms, the warp and external satellites. Our results at l=178deg are broadly consistent with previous work on K giants in the anticentre, but the kinematics at l=118deg in the Perseus region do not yet reconcile easily with bar or spiral arm perturbation.
