摘要:

King 2是银河系中最古老的星团之一,年龄为$\sim$ 6 Gyr,距离为$\sim 5700$ pc,已在\textit{ASTROSAT}上使用UVIT有效载荷进行了观测。根据{\it Gaia} EDR 3的成员信息,发现该星团有39颗蓝色离散星(BSS)。我们创建了所有BSS的多波长光谱能量分布(SED)。在10个紫外探测到的BSS中,有6个明亮的BSS具有双分量SED,并发现有更热的伴星,其性质类似于极水平分支(EHB)/亚矮星B(sdB),光度和温度范围,表明热伴星之间的多样性。我们认为,该团簇中至少有15%的BSS是通过传质途径形成的。当我们比较它们的性质EHB和较热的同伴BSS在开放和球状星团,我们认为,EHB/sdBs一样的同伴可以形成在双星的疏散星团作为6 Gyr。

英文摘要:

King 2, one of the oldest clusters in the Milky Way, with an age of $\sim$ 6 Gyr and distance of $\sim 5700$ pc, has been observed with UVIT payload on the \textit{ASTROSAT}. With membership information derived from {\it Gaia} EDR3, the cluster is found to have 39 blue straggler stars (BSSs). We created multi-wavelength spectra-energy distributions (SED) of all the BSSs. Out of 10 UV detected BSSs, 6 bright ones fitted with double component SEDs and were found to have hotter companions with properties similar to extreme horizontal branch (EHB)/subdwarf B (sdB) stars, with a range in luminosity and temperature, suggesting a diversity among the hot companions. We suggest that at least 15\% of BSSs in this cluster are formed via mass-transfer pathway. When we compared their properties to EHBs and hotter companions to BSS in open and globular clusters, we suggest that EHB/sdBs like companions can form in binaries of open clusters as young as 6 Gyr.
