摘要:

我们在这里提出的定量诊断工具,采用低分辨率的近红外光谱的$K$波段的冷巨星的恒星星族的研究。在这项研究中,总共使用了260颗冷巨星(用X-shooter观测到的177颗恒星和用NIFS观测到的83颗恒星),覆盖了比早期工作更宽的金属丰度范围。在降低光谱分辨率(R $\sim$ 1200)后,我们测量了一些选定的重要$K$带光谱特征(如Na I,Fe I和$^{12}$ CO)的等效宽度,以研究基本参数(例如有效温度和金属丰度)的光谱行为。我们推导出经验关系,以测量有效温度使用$^{12}$ CO第一泛音带在2.29 $μ$ m和2.32 $μ$ m,并显示了详细的定量金属依赖这些相关性。我们发现,经验关系的基础上太阳附近的恒星可以纳入大的不确定性,在评估$T_{eff}$的贫金属或富金属的恒星。此外,我们探索了所有的光谱线,以建立与金属丰度的经验关系,并发现在2.29 $μ$ m线处Na I和$^{12}$ CO的组合的二次拟合在[ $Fe/H$ ] $\leq$ $-$ 0.4 dex处产生了可靠的经验关系,而任何线的线性拟合为具有[ $Fe/H$ ] $\geq$ 0.0 dex的恒星提供了良好的金属丰度标度。

英文摘要:

We present here quantitative diagnostic tools for cool giants that employ low-resolution near-infrared spectroscopy in the $K$-band for stellar population studies. In this study, a total of 260 cool giants (177 stars observed with X-shooter and 83 stars observed with NIFS) are used covering a wider metallicity range than in earlier works. We measure equivalent widths of some of the selected important $K$-band spectral features like Na I, Fe I, and $^{12}$CO after degrading the spectral resolution (R $\sim$ 1200) to investigate the spectral behavior with fundamental parameters (e.g. effective temperature and metallicity). We derive empirical relations to measure effective temperature using the $^{12}$CO first-overtone band at 2.29 $μ$m and 2.32 $μ$m and show a detailed quantitative metallicity dependence of these correlations. We find that the empirical relations based on solar-neighborhood stars can incorporate large uncertainty in evaluating $T_{eff}$ for metal-poor or metal-rich stars. Furthermore, we explore all the spectral lines to establish the empirical relation with metallicity and find that the quadratic fit of the combination of Na I and $^{12}$CO at 2.29 $μ$m lines yields a reliable empirical relation at [$Fe/H$] $\leq$ $-$0.4 dex, while a linear fit of any line offers a good metallicity scale for stars having [$Fe/H$] $\geq$ 0.0 dex.
