Itay Gissis, Uria Peretz, Ehud Behar

摘要:

通过光谱吸收特征,在我们星系的局部附近观察到热电离气体。最常见的假设是,这种气体在碰撞电离平衡中形成了围绕我们的银河系(MW)的光环。在本文中,我们调查的元素丰度的热和电离的本地气体。我们使用2.4 Ms的明亮blazar 3C 273的堆叠X射线光谱和探测的本地吸收功能。使用离子的X射线吸收线的离子拟合,我们推导出每个电离物种的柱密度。基于柱密度,我们重建了吸收测度分布(AMD),即作为温度的函数的类氢柱密度。我们报告了C、N、Ne和Fe相对于太阳O的元素丰度。先前对局部X射线发射谱线的测量以及目前的柱密度表明,热电离气体的标度高度为$1-80$ kpc,氢数密度为$10^{-4}-10^{-3}$ cm $^{-3}$。此外,我们还在类星体宽线区探测到类He O线,其速度为6400 $\pm$ 1500 km s $^{-1}$

英文摘要:

Hot ionized gas is observed in the local vicinity of our galaxy through spectral absorption features. The most common hypothesis is that this gas forms a halo surrounding our Milky-Way (MW), in collisional ionization equilibrium. In this paper we investigate the elemental abundance of this hot and ionized local gas. We use a 2.4 Ms stacked X-ray spectrum of the bright blazar 3C 273 and probe the local absorption features. Using ion-by-ion fitting of the X-ray absorption lines we derive the column density of each ionization species. Based on the column densities we reconstruct the Absorption measure distribution (AMD), namely the hydrogenic column density as a function of temperature. We report the elemental abundances of C, N, Ne, and Fe relative to solar O. Previous measurements of local X-ray emission lines in conjunction with the present column densities indicate a scale height of $1-80$ kpc and hydrogen number density of $10^{-4}-10^{-3}$cm$^{-3}$ for the hot ionized gas. Additionally, we detect He-like O lines from the quasar broad line region with velocities of 6400$\pm$1500 km s$^{-1}$
