摘要:

我们给出了2 MASS J050051.85-093054.9的轨道和性质,确定它是最接近太阳的(d ~ 71 pc)极低质量白矮星。我们发现,这颗恒星是富含氢的Teff ~ 10 500 K,log g ~ 5.9,并按照进化模型,有一个质量为~ 0.17太阳质量。对径向速度和TESS光度时间序列的独立分析显示,轨道周期约为9.5小时。它的高速度振幅(K ~ 144 km/s)在TESS光变曲线中产生了可测量的多普勒波束效应,振幅为1 mmag。看不见的伴星很可能是一颗暗淡的白矮星。J 0500 -0930属于后共包络系统,很可能通过不稳定的质量转移合并,在特定情况下导致Ia型超新星爆炸。

英文摘要:

We present the orbit and properties of 2MASS J050051.85-093054.9, establishing it as the closest (d ~ 71 pc) extremely low mass white dwarf to the Sun. We find that this star is hydrogen-rich with Teff ~ 10 500 K, log g ~ 5.9, and, following evolutionary models, has a mass of ~ 0.17 solar masses. Independent analysis of radial velocity and TESS photometric time series reveals an orbital period of ~ 9.5 h. Its high velocity amplitude (K ~ 144 km/s) produces a measurable Doppler beaming effect in the TESS light curve with an amplitude of 1 mmag. The unseen companion is most likely a faint white dwarf. J0500-0930 belongs to a class of post-common envelope systems that will most likely merge through unstable mass transfer and in specific circumstances lead to Type Ia supernova explosions.
