摘要:

利用从LAMOST和盖亚巡天中选出的96,201颗初级红团(RC)星的样本,我们研究了银河系盘的恒星结构。样品星在[α/Fe]-[Fe/H]平面上显示出高[α/Fe]和低[α/Fe]两个分离的序列。将样本星划分为5个单丰度星族,分别命名为高α/Fe星族、高α/Fe星族和高Fe/H星族、低Fe/H星族、太阳星族和高Fe/H星族。我们给出了R-R-Z平面上的恒星数密度分布,并通过拟合它们的垂直和径向密度分布,给出了各个MAP的标度高度和标度长度。垂直剖面(尺度高度随银心半径的变化趋势)表明,无论是低[α/Fe]还是高[α/Fe] MAPs,外盘都存在明显的盘耀斑。高[α/Fe]和低[α/Fe] MAP的径向表面密度分布分别显示出7 kpc和8 kpc的峰值半径。此外,我们还研究了单个MAPs的平均旋转速度与金属丰度之间的相关性,发现高[α/Fe]和低[α/Fe] MAPs的平均旋转速度分离性较好,并表现出不同的趋势。最后,我们讨论了高[α/Fe]和高[Fe/H] MAP的特征,发现无论是径向和垂直密度分布,还是旋转速度,都与高[α/Fe] MAP更为相似。

英文摘要:

Using a sample of 96,201 primary red clump (RC) stars selected from the LAMOST and Gaia surveys, we investigate the stellar structure of the Galactic disk. The sample stars show two separated sequences of high-[α/Fe] and low-[α/Fe] in the [α/Fe]-[Fe/H] plane. We divide the sample stars into five mono-abundance populations (MAPs) with different ranges of [α/Fe] and [Fe/H], named as the high-[α/Fe], high-[α/Fe] & high-[Fe/H], low-[Fe/H], solar, high-[Fe/H] MAPs respectively. We present the stellar number density distributions in the R R Z plane, and the scale heights and scale lengths of the individual MAPs by fitting their vertical and radial density profiles. The vertical profiles, the variation trend of scale height with the Galactocentric radius, indicate that there is a clear disk flare in the outer disk both for the low-[α/Fe] and the high-[α/Fe] MAPs. While the radial surface density profiles show a peak radius of 7 kpc and 8 kpc for the high-[α/Fe] and low-[α/Fe] MAPs, respectively. We also investigate the correlation between the mean rotation velocity and metallicity of the individual MAPs, and find that the mean rotation velocities are well separated and show different trends between the high-[α/Fe] and the low-[α/Fe] MAPs. At last, we discuss the character of the high-[α/Fe] & high-[Fe/H] MAP and find that it is more similar to the high-[α/Fe] MAP either in the radial and vertical density profiles or in the rotation velocity.
