摘要:

我们目前的X射线通过亚毫米观测的经典RV金牛座(RVb型)变量U Mon,后AGB二进制与环二进制磁盘(CBD)。我们的SMA观察表明CBD直径为$\lesssim$ 550 AU。我们的XMM-牛顿观测使U Mon成为第一个在X射线中检测到的RV Tauri变量。的X射线发射的特点是一个热等离子体($\sim$ 10 MK),与L $_{X}=5\times10^{30}{\rm erg}~{\rm s}^{-1}$,我们认为它可能起源于U Mon,它的同伴,和/或二元系统的相互作用。结合DASCH和AAVSO数据,我们将时间序列光度基线延伸到19世纪80年代末,并发现证据表明U Mon具有长期变化,似乎在$\sim$ 60年的时间尺度上复发,可能是由CBD的一个功能引起的。根据文献中的视向速度,我们发现这颗双星伴星是一颗$\sim$ 2 M $_{\odot}$ A型主序星。双星轨道的方向沿着我们的视线($ω= 95^\circ$),这样,远日点对应于光度RVb极小值,与后AGB恒星被CBD的近侧遮蔽一致。此外,我们发现的CBD内孔($\sim$ 4.5-9 au)的大小是可比的二进制分离,这意味着一个或两个明星可能与CBD在apastron。后AGB恒星的遮蔽暗示伴星可能是在RVb极小点观测到的增强H $α$和可能由吸积物质产生的X射线辐射的来源。

英文摘要:

We present X-ray through submillimeter observations of the classical RV Tauri (RVb-type) variable U Mon, a post-AGB binary with a circumbinary disk (CBD). Our SMA observations indicate a CBD diameter of $\lesssim$550 au. Our XMM-Newton observations make U Mon the first RV Tauri variable detected in X-rays. The X-ray emission is characteristic of a hot plasma ($\sim$10 MK), with L$_{X}=5\times10^{30}{\rm erg}~{\rm s}^{-1}$, and we consider its possible origin from U Mon, its companion, and/or binary system interactions. Combining DASCH and AAVSO data, we extend the time-series photometric baseline back to the late 1880s and find evidence that U Mon has secular changes that appear to recur on a timescale of $\sim$60 yr, possibly caused by a feature in the CBD. From literature radial velocities we find that the binary companion is a $\sim$2 M$_{\odot}$ A-type main-sequence star. The orientation of the binary's orbit lies along our line of sight ($ω= 95^\circ$), such that apastron corresponds to photometric RVb minima, consistent with the post-AGB star becoming obscured by the near side of the CBD. In addition, we find the size of the inner-CBD hole ($\sim$4.5-9 au) to be comparable to the binary separation, implying that one or both stars may interact with the CBD at apastron. The obscuration of the post-AGB star implicates the companion as the likely source of the enhanced H$α$ observed at RVb minima and of the X-ray emission that may arise from accreted material.
