远亲:在盖亚中发现的同向运动对的化学同质性

Distant Relatives: The Chemical Homogeneity of Comoving Pairs Identified in Gaia

Tyler Nelson, Yuan-Sen Ting, Keith Hawkins, Alexander Ji, Harshil Kamdar, Kareem El-Badry

摘要:

同向运动对,即使在$\mathcal{O}(10^6)\,$ AU的分离处,也是一个预测的连续恒星库。我们提供了31对共动恒星中62颗恒星的详细化学丰度,并给出了$10^2 - 10^7\,$ AU和3D速度差$< 2 \mathrm{\ km \ s^{-1}}$的分离。此示例包括绑定的共移动对/宽二进制文件和未绑定的共移动对。观测是使用麦哲伦/克莱望远镜上的MIKE摄谱仪以高分辨率($\mathrm{R} \sim 45,000$)进行的,典型的信噪比为每像素150。利用这些光谱,我们测量了24种元素的表面丰度,包括Li,C,Na,Mg,Al,Si,Ca,Sc,Ti,V,Cr,Mn,Fe,Co,Ni,Cu,Zn,Sr,Y,Zr,Ba,La,Nd,Eu。以铁为代表元素,我们的宽双星样品在$0.05$ dex水平上是化学均匀的,这与以前对宽双星的研究一致。重要的是,即使是分离度为$2\times10^5-10^7\,$ AU的系统,与分散度为$0.23\,$ dex的随机对相反,也与$0.09$ dex是同质的。在宽双星和随机双星的混合模型下,我们发现在间隔为$2\times10^5-10^7\,$ AU的同动双星对的$73 \pm 22\%$是连续的。我们的研究结果意味着,一个更大的相空间的参数空间可以用来寻找恒星,研究M-矮星,星团演化,系外行星,化学标记,等等。

英文摘要:

Comoving pairs, even at the separations of $\mathcal{O}(10^6)\,$AU, are a predicted reservoir of conatal stars. We present detailed chemical abundances of 62 stars in 31 comoving pairs with separations of $10^2 - 10^7\,$AU and 3D velocity differences $< 2 \mathrm{\ km \ s^{-1}}$. This sample includes both bound comoving pairs/wide binaries and unbound comoving pairs. Observations were taken using the MIKE spectrograph on the Magellan/Clay Telescope at high resolution ($\mathrm{R} \sim 45,000$) with a typical signal-to-noise ratio of 150 per pixel. With these spectra, we measure surface abundances for 24 elements, including Li, C, Na, Mg, Al, Si, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Sr, Y, Zr, Ba, La, Nd, Eu. Taking iron as the representative element, our sample of wide binaries is chemically homogeneous at the level of $0.05$ dex, which agrees with prior studies on wide binaries. Importantly, even systems at separations $2\times10^5-10^7\,$AU are homogeneous to $0.09$ dex, as opposed to the random pairs which have a dispersion of $0.23\,$dex. Assuming a mixture model of the wide binaries and random pairs, we find that $73 \pm 22\%$ of the comoving pairs at separations $2\times10^5-10^7\,$AU are conatal. Our results imply that a much larger parameter space of phase space may be used to find conatal stars, to study M-dwarfs, star cluster evolution, exoplanets, chemical tagging, and beyond.
