摘要:

测量恒星日冕中的磁场是极其困难的。最近,有人提出利用Fe X 257超导线的磁场感生跃迁(MIT)来测量太阳日冕磁场。我们进行了一系列的全球恒星磁流体动力学模型的正演模拟,探讨这种方法扩展到其他晚型恒星的可能性。我们首先合成了每个恒星模型的几条Fe X线的发射,然后根据MIT理论,利用Fe X 257的强度与其他几条Fe X线的强度比计算了磁场强度。最后,我们将导出的场强与模型中的场强进行了比较,并得出结论,该方法至少可以用于测量表面平均磁通量密度比太阳高一个数量级的恒星冕底的磁场强度。我们的研究表明,需要一个极紫外光谱仪进行日常测量的恒星日冕磁场。

英文摘要:

Measurements of the magnetic field in the stellar coronae are extremely difficult. Recently, it was proposed that the magnetic-field-induced transition (MIT) of the Fe X 257 Å line can be used to measure the coronal magnetic field of the Sun. We performed forward modeling with a series of global stellar magnetohydrodynamics models to investigate the possibility of extending this method to other late-type stars. We first synthesized the emissions of several Fe X lines for each stellar model, then calculated the magnetic field strengths using the intensity ratios of Fe X 257 Å to several other Fe X lines based on the MIT theory. Finally, we compared the derived field strengths with those in the models, and concluded that this method can be used to measure at least the magnetic field strengths at the coronal bases of stars with a mean surface magnetic flux density about one order of magnitude higher than that of the Sun. Our investigation suggests the need of an extreme ultraviolet spectrometer to perform routine measurements of the stellar coronal magnetic field.
