年轻恒星中的锂转动联系

The lithium-rotation connection in young stars

J. Bouvier

摘要:

锂是恒星内部混合过程的敏感探针。多年来,人们一直怀疑锂丰度和恒星自转之间存在联系,推测是旋转引起的内部混合的结果。近年来,一些研究已经证实并完善了低质量年轻恒星的这种关系。在不同的恒星形成区和年轻的疏散星团中,快速旋转的K矮星被发现比它们旋转较慢的兄弟更富含锂。虽然这种锂旋转的相关性是相反的天真的期望,已经提出了几个模型来解释它。我们在这里回顾最近的观测结果,并简要讨论建议的解释。

英文摘要:

Lithium is a sensitive probe to mixing processes operating in stellar interiors. For many years, a connection has been suspected to exist between lithium abundances and stellar rotation, presumably the result of rotationally-induced internal mixing. In recent years, several studies have confirmed and refined this relationship for low-mass young stars. In various star forming regions and young open clusters, rapidly rotating K dwarfs are found to be lithium-rich compared to their more slowly rotating siblings. While this lithium-rotation correlation is contrary to naive expectations, several models have been put forward to account for it. We review here recent observational results, and briefly discuss proposed interpretations.
