摘要:

我们提出了一个分析的\chandra /LETGS观测的超紧凑X射线双星(UCXB)4U 1626 $-$ 67,继续我们的项目,以分析现有的钱德拉光栅数据的这个有趣的来源。极低质量的贫氢施主星为研究富含金属的吸积等离子体的性质和结构提供了一个独特的机会。有强的,双峰的OVII-VIII和Ne IX-X的发射特征,但没有检测到其他识别的发射线。我们的光谱拟合同时模型的发射线轮廓和等离子体参数,使用两个温度的碰撞电离等离子体。基于我们的线轮廓拟合,我们将系统的倾角限制为25- 60 $^{\circ}$,将内部盘半径限制为$\sim$ 1500引力半径,从而将施主质量限制为$\lesssim$ 0.026 M_sun,而我们的等离子体模型证实了先前关于源中高氖丰度的报道,建立了$0.47 \pm 0.04$系统中的Ne/O比,同时估算出$0.0042 \pm 0.0008$的非常低的Fe/O比,并将Mg/O比限制为小于1数量%。我们讨论了这些结果,根据以前的工作。

英文摘要:

We present an analysis of \chandra/LETGS observations of the ultracompact X-ray binary (UCXB) 4U 1626$-$67, continuing our project to analyze the existing Chandra gratings data of this interesting source. The extremely low mass, hydrogen-depleted donor star provides a unique opportunity to study the properties and structure of the metal-rich accreted plasma. There are strong, double-peaked emission features of OVII-VIII and Ne IX-X, but no other identified emission lines are detected. Our spectral fit simultaneously models the emission line profiles and the plasma parameters, using a two-temperature collisionally-ionized plasma. Based on our line profile fitting, we constrain the inclination of the system to 25--60$^{\circ}$ and the inner disk radius to $\sim$1500 gravitational radii, in turn constraining the donor mass to $\lesssim$0.026 M_sun, while our plasma modeling confirms previous reports of high neon abundance in the source, establishing a Ne/O ratio in the system of $0.47 \pm 0.04$, while simultaneously estimating a very low Fe/O ratio of $0.0042 \pm 0.0008$ and limiting the Mg/O ratio to less than 1% by number. We discuss these results in light of previous work.
