摘要:

山Abu微弱天体摄谱仪和照相机(MFOSC-P)是一个内部开发的仪器,用于Mt.的物理研究实验室(PRL)1.2米望远镜。阿布印度,于2019年2月投入使用。在这里,我们介绍了2019年2月至6月期间MFOSC-P试运行期间进行的M矮星样本低分辨率光谱计划的第一批科学结果。M矮星对于在宜居带中搜索系外行星具有重要意义,并且是天文台几项正在进行的观测活动的有希望的候选者之一。确定其准确的大气特性和基本参数是必不可少的,以约束其大气和演变模式。在这项研究中,我们提供了一个低分辨率(R $\sim$ 500)光谱目录的80个明亮的M矮星(J $<$ 10),并分类他们使用他们的光谱。我们还进行了光谱合成和$χ^2$最小化技术,以确定其基本参数,即有效温度和表面重力通过比较观测到的光谱与最新的BT-Settl合成光谱。在我们的样本中,M矮星的光谱类型从M0到M5。导出的有效温度和表面重力的范围分别为4000 - 3000 K和4.5 - 5.5 dex。在大多数情况下,派生的光谱类型与以前分配的光度分类是很好的协议。

英文摘要:

Mt. Abu Faint Object Spectrograph and Camera (MFOSC-P) is an in-house developed instrument for Physical Research Laboratory (PRL) 1.2m telescope at Mt. Abu India, commissioned in February 2019. Here we present the first science results derived from the low resolution spectroscopy program of a sample of M Dwarfs carried out during the commissioning run of MFOSC-P between February-June 2019. M dwarfs carry great significance for exoplanets searches in habitable zone and are among the promising candidates for the observatory's several ongoing observational campaigns. Determination of their accurate atmospheric properties and fundamental parameters is essential to constrain both their atmospheric and evolutionary models. In this study, we provide a low resolution (R$\sim$500) spectroscopic catalogue of 80 bright M dwarfs (J$<$10) and classify them using their optical spectra. We have also performed the spectral synthesis and $χ^2$ minimisation techniques to determine their fundamental parameters viz. effective temperature and surface gravity by comparing the observed spectra with the most recent BT-Settl synthetic spectra. Spectral type of M dwarfs in our sample ranges from M0 to M5. The derived effective temperature and surface gravity are ranging from 4000 K to 3000 K and 4.5 to 5.5 dex, respectively. In most of the cases, the derived spectral types are in good agreement with previously assigned photometric classification.
