摘要:

利用\textit{AstroSat}卫星上的紫外成像望远镜(UVIT)的两个远紫外(FUV:1300 - 1800 nm)和三个近紫外(NUV:2000 - 3000 nm)滤光片对银河系球状星团NGC 7492进行了详细的测光观测。我们使用GAIA数据发布2(盖亚DR 2)自行数据确认了提取的源的聚类成员。我们已经使用颜色星等图(CMD),使用UVIT和GAIA过滤器,以分离出不同的演化阶段的恒星在集群中。我们已经确定了一个新的极端水平分支(EHB)星的核心集群使用紫外和紫外光学CMD。估计的距离模的集群是$16.95\pm0.05$通过拟合BaSTI等时线与集群参数,$[Fe/H] = -1.8$ dex和年龄$= 12.0$ Gyr上的V $-$ I与V CMD。有趣的是,在UVIT的FUV滤光片中,只有EHB星和蓝水平支星(BHB)被探测到。我们利用色温关系和多波段滤光片的光谱能量分布(SEDs)导出了BHB的有效温度,其范围为8000 ~ 10500 K。通过拟合BaSTI ZAHB,我们发现BHB的He丰度变化。对应于最佳拟合等时线的BHB的He丰度范围为0.247至0.350。我们已经估计了各种物理参数的新确定的EHB星在集群中使用SED拟合和后HB演化轨迹。我们已经研究了在UVIT中检测到的团簇的所有源的径向分布。在FUV过滤器中检测到的源延伸到星团的半光半径(1.15 $'$)之外,而在NUV过滤器中检测到的源延伸到星团的潮汐半径(9.2 $'$)之外。

英文摘要:

We present detailed photometric observations of the Galactic globular cluster NGC 7492 using the data obtained with two far-ultraviolet (FUV: 1300 - 1800 Å) and three near-ultraviolet (NUV: 2000 - 3000 Å) filters of Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) on-board the \textit{AstroSat} satellite. We confirmed the cluster membership of the extracted sources using GAIA data release 2 (Gaia DR2) proper motion data. We have used color-magnitude diagrams (CMDs) using UVIT and GAIA filters to separate out different evolutionary stages of the stars present in the cluster. We have identified a new extreme horizontal branch (EHB) star at the core of the cluster using UV and UV-optical CMDs. The estimated distance-modulus of the cluster is $16.95\pm0.05$ obtained by fitting BaSTI isochrones with cluster parameters, $[Fe/H] = -1.8$ dex and age $= 12.0$ Gyr on the V $-$ I vs V CMD. Interestingly, only the EHB star and blue horizontal branch stars (BHBs) among the UV-bright hot sources are detected in FUV filters of UVIT. We have derived the effective temperature of BHBs using color-temperature relation and spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of multi-band filters, which are in the range from 8,000 K to 10,500 K. We find a variation of He abundance of BHBs by fitting the BaSTI ZAHB. The range in the He abundance of the BHBs corresponding to the best fit isochrones is 0.247 to 0.350. We have estimated various physical parameters of the newly identified EHB star in the cluster using SED fit and post-HB evolutionary tracks. We have studied the radial distribution of all the sources of the cluster detected in UVIT. The sources detected in FUV filters extend beyond the half light radius (1.15$'$) of the cluster, whereas the sources detected in NUV filters extend beyond the tidal radius (9.2$'$) of the cluster.
