摘要:

对HL Tau原行星盘的偏振观测表明,在ALMA波段7存在散射激发的偏振,这表明尘埃粒子的最大尺寸为$\sim 100~{\rm μm}$,而谱能量分布(SED)表明尘埃粒子的最大尺寸为$\sim$ mm。如果盘是光学厚,较长的观察波长跟踪更多的内层,这将是由较大的晶粒为主。研究发现,在较宽的湍流强度范围内,HL Tau盘中心部分的SED可以用mm尺度的颗粒来解释,而只有当湍流强度参数$α_{\rm t}$小于$10^{-5}$时,才能用$160~{\rm μm}$尺度的颗粒来解释.我们还发现,所观察到的极化分数可以潜在地解释与最大灰尘尺寸的$1~{\rm mm}$,如果$α_{\rm t}\lesssim10^{-5}$,虽然模型与$160~{\rm μm}$大小的颗粒也是可以接受的。然而,如果最大的尘埃尺寸是$\sim3~{\rm mm}$,模拟的偏振分数是太低,解释的意见,即使湍流强度是非常小的,表明最大的尘埃尺寸为$\lesssim1$ mm。100 ${\rm μm}$大小和mm大小的颗粒之间的简并可以解决通过提高ALMA校准精度或偏振观测(分)厘米波长。

英文摘要:

The polarimetric observations on the protoplanetary disk around HL Tau have shown the scattering-induced polarization at ALMA Band 7, which indicates that the maximum dust size is $\sim 100~{\rm μm}$, while the Spectral Energy Distribution (SED) has suggested that the maximum dust size is $\sim$ mm. To solve the contradiction, we investigate the impact of differential settling of dust grains on the SED and polarization. If the disk is optically thick, longer observing wavelength traces more interior layer which would be dominated by larger grains. We find that, the SED of the center part of the HL Tau disk can be explained with mm-sized grains for a broad range of turbulence strength, while $160~{\rm μm}$-sized grains can explain barely only if the turbulence strength parameter $α_{\rm t}$ is lower than $10^{-5}$. We also find that the observed polarization fraction can be potentially explained with the maximum dust size of $1~{\rm mm}$ if $α_{\rm t}\lesssim10^{-5}$, although models with $160~{\rm μm}$-sized grains are also acceptable. However, if the maximum dust size is $\sim3~{\rm mm}$, the simulated polarization fraction is too low to explain the observations even if the turbulence strength is extremely small, indicating the maximum dust size of $\lesssim1$ mm. The degeneracy between 100 ${\rm μm}$-sized and mm-sized grains can be solved by improving the ALMA calibration accuracy or polarimetric observations at (sub-)cm wavelengths.
