紫外线下的恒星形成

Star Formation in the Ultraviolet

Jorick S. Vink

摘要:

随着JWST的发射和即将安装的超大型望远镜,我们宇宙中的第一个星系将最终被揭示。它们的光将由大质量恒星主导,这些恒星在电磁波谱的紫外线(UV)部分达到峰值。恒星的形成是我们宇宙演化的关键驱动力。在年轻的时候,在1000万年内,高质量和低质量的恒星都会产生复杂的紫外线发射过程,这一过程目前还不清楚,但对于解释高红移线发射至关重要。出于这些原因,哈勃太空望远镜(HST)将投入1000个轨道,以获得一个年轻恒星紫外遗产库作为基本标准(ULLYSES)。本概述的目的是概述驱动紫外线发射过程的基本物理原理,(在100秒差距内)恒星形成,从巨大的恒星形成复合体包含数百个大质量和超大质量恒星(VMS),如剑鱼座30从邻近的麦哲伦星云(距离只有50千秒差距)中的蜘蛛星云(Tarantula Nebula),到远近的星系,直到宇宙再电离的时代。

英文摘要:

With the launch of JWST and the upcoming installation of extremely large telescopes, the first galaxies in our Universe will finally be revealed. Their light will be dominated by massive stars, which peak in in the ultra-violet (UV) part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Star formation is the key driver of the evolution of our Universe. At young ages, within 10 Million years, both high and low mass stars generate complex UV emission processes which are poorly understood yet are vital for interpreting high red-shift line emission. For these reasons, the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) will devote 1000 orbits to obtaining a UV Legacy Library of Young Stars as Essential Standards (ULLYSES). The purpose of this Overview is to outline the basic physical principles driving UV emission processes from local (within 100 parsecs of) star formation, ranging from huge star-forming complexes containing hundreds of massive and very-massive stars (VMS), such as 30 Doradus (the Tarantula Nebula) in the neighbouring Magellanic Clouds (only 50 kpc away), to galaxies near and far, out to the epoch of Cosmic Reionization.
