银河轨道对脉冲星计时的影响

Galactic Orbital Effects on Pulsar Timing

Kiley Heflin, Richard Lieu

摘要:

在目前被接受的范式中,暗物质被假设为在维里化轨道假设下的星系平坦旋转曲线的解释。使用毫秒脉冲星计时探测银河系的暗物质的内容进行了探讨,作为放松这一假设的一种手段。给出了一种利用频率导数$\dotν$推断银河系势的方法,并通过直接观测加速度给出了一条维里化的银河系自转曲线的估计。所用的数据集包括210个具有已知$\dotν$和天体测量特性的天体,其中一个子集还测量了$\ddotν$。在原则上,这使得运动学效应的探索,但在实践中,$\ddotν$值被发现是太不精确,目前充分约束径向速度的恒星。此外,表面磁场强度推断从$\dotν$和磁自旋下降贡献$\ddotν$估计。对于几个行星的径向速度是已知的,和运动学的贡献$\ddotν$相应地估计。PSR J1713+0747和其他双星的轨道周期也被用来约束银河系质量密度模型。

英文摘要:

In the currently accepted paradigm, dark matter is hypothesized as an explanation of the flat rotation curves of galaxies under the assumption of virialized orbits. The use of millisecond pulsar timing as a probe of Galactic dark matter content is explored as a means of relaxing this assumption. A method of inference of the Galactic potential using the frequency derivative $\dotν$ is produced, and an estimate for a virialized Galactic rotation curve is given through direct observation of acceleration. The data set used includes 210 pulsars with known $\dotν$ and astrometric properties, a subset of which also have measured $\ddotν$. In principle, this enables the exploration of kinematic effects, but in practice, $\ddotν$ values are found to be too imprecise at present to adequately constrain radial velocities of pulsars. Additionally, surface magnetic field strengths are inferred from $\dotν$ and the magnetic spin-down contribution to $\ddotν$ is estimated. For several pulsars the radial velocity is known, and the kinematic contribution to $\ddotν$ is estimated accordingly. The binary orbital periods of PSR J1713+0747 and other binary pulsars are also used to constrain Galactic mass density models.
