摘要:

结合OGLE-IV测光数据和Gaia DR 2自行,我们分析了银河系隆起中15,599颗基本模式RR天琴座(RRL)恒星的运动学和空间分布。我们表明,纵向自行和视线速度可以给出类似的结果,在银河系中心区域的旋转。球丘RRL的角速度约为$35$ km s $^{-1}$ kpc $^{-1}$,明显小于大多数球丘恒星的角速度($50-60$ km s $^{-1}$ kpc $^{-1}$);球丘RRL的速度色散比年轻恒星大(120 $-$ 140 km s $^{-1}$)。通过旋转曲线和空间分布,揭示了核球RRL的运动学特征与其金属丰度的关系。贫金属RRL([Fe/H]< $-1$)显示出比富金属RRL更小的棒角。我们还发现线索表明,在隆起的RRL不占主导地位的晕星。这些结果可能解释一些以前的矛盾的结果,对核球RRLs和帮助理解银河系核球的化学动力学演化。

英文摘要:

We analyze the kinematics and spatial distribution of 15,599 fundamental-mode RR Lyrae (RRL) stars in the Milky Way bulge by combining OGLE-IV photometric data and Gaia DR2 proper motions. We show that the longitudinal proper motions and the line-of-sight velocities can give similar results for the rotation in the Galactic central regions. The angular velocity of bulge RRLs is found to be around $35$ km s$^{-1}$ kpc$^{-1}$, significantly smaller than that for the majority of bulge stars ($50-60$ km s$^{-1}$ kpc$^{-1}$); bulge RRLs have larger velocity dispersion (120$-$140 km s$^{-1}$) than younger stars. The dependence of the kinematics of the bulge RRLs on their metallicities is shown by their rotation curves and spatial distributions. Metal-poor RRLs ([Fe/H]<$-1$) show a smaller bar angle than metal-rich ones. We also find clues suggesting that RRLs in the bulge are not dominated by halo stars. These results might explain some previous conflicting results over bulge RRLs and help understand the chemodynamical evolution of the Galactic bulge.
