不仅仅是一个皱纹:径向速度与来自盖亚数据的angular momentum的波动模式

More than just a wrinkle: A wave-like pattern in radial velocity vs. angular momentum from Gaia Data

Jennifer Friske, Ralph Schönrich

摘要:

我们在Gaia DR 2的RV子样本中发现了一个新的类波模式,即平均银心径向速度U_g与恒星的导引中心半径R_g或角动量L_z的关系。短波斑图的波长在R_g为1.2kpc量级,在L_z为285 kpc km/s量级。该图只显示出随银心半径R的微弱变化,强度变化很小,特别是随恒星的垂直能量E_z或距银道面|z|的距离的变化。该图案围绕平面一阶对称,即在z中没有显著的奇数项。随着图案向略低的L_z(即拖尾)移动,存在弱相移,其中具有|z|和E_z。然而,我们观察到一个非常显着的相位移在银河方位角φ,这是不同的峰。在L_z ~ 2100 kpc km/s附近的峰值只显示出随银河方位角的微弱变化,而其余的图案则显示出明显可检测的d L_z /d φ =(200 +/-22)kpc km/s/rad的移动。如果我们认为所有的峰都属于相同的模式,这将表明波数m = 4。我们进一步发现U_g中的波状图案似乎与Gaia DR 1中检测到的W与L_z图案有关。将U_g-L_z波型与前面讨论过的U_g与R的变化进行比较,表明后者可以理解为由于盘星的模糊(即围绕其导引中心的轨道偏移)而被洗掉的U_g-L_z波型。

英文摘要:

We present a newly found wave--like pattern in mean Galactocentric radial velocity U_g vs. guiding centre radius R_g or angular momentum L_z of stars in the RV subsample of Gaia DR2. The short-wave pattern has a wavelength of order 1.2 kpc in R_g or 285 kpc km/s in L_z. The pattern shows only weak changes with Galactocentric radius R and little change in strength in particular with the vertical energy E_z of the stars or respectively the distance to the Galactic plane |z|. The pattern is to first order symmetric around the plane, i.e. has no significant odd terms in z. There is weak phase shift with the pattern moving towards slightly lower L_z (i.e. trailing) with |z| and E_z. However, we observe a highly significant phase shift in Galactic azimuth phi, which is different for different peaks. The peak around L_z ~ 2100 kpc km/s only shows a weak change with galactic azimuth, while the rest of the pattern shows a clearly detectable shift of d L_z /d phi = (200 +/- 22) kpc km/s/rad. If we consider all peaks to belong to the same pattern, this would suggest a wavenumber m = 4. We further find that the wave-like pattern in U_g appears to be related to the W vs. L_z pattern detected in Gaia DR1. A comparison of the U_g-L_z wave pattern with changes of U_g vs. R, which have been previously discussed, suggests that the latter can be understood as just the U_g-L_z pattern washed out by blurring (i.e. orbital excursions around their guiding-centre) of disc stars.
