WR140作为2016年近星点通过期间形成的尘埃的光学光度测量

Optical Photometry of WR140 as the Dust Formed During the 2016 Periastron Passage

Megan J. Peatt, Noel D. Richardson

摘要:

风双星WR140在每一次近星点通过时都会在其冲击气体中产生尘埃。虽然红外线曲线是非常可重复的,但在光学时间序列测光中每个周期都有明显的变化。在近星点之后的阶段,光变曲线中有光学下降,这被认为是由我们视线中产生的尘埃中的局部团块引起的。我们报告了美国变星观测者协会(AAVSO)在2016年近星点事件后记录的B和V波段光变曲线,并简要讨论了与尘埃产生几何模型的比较,以推断这些特征可能是由新尘埃壳中的局部尘埃团引起的。

英文摘要:

The colliding wind binary WR140 produces dust in its shocked gas every periastron passage. While the infrared light curve is very repeatable, there are noticeable changes every cycle in the optical time-series photometry. In the phases following periastron, there are optical dips in the light curve that were postulated to be caused by localized clumps in the dust produced in our line of sight. We report on the B and V-band light curves that were recorded by the American Association of Variable Star Observers (AAVSO) after the 2016 periastron event and briefly discuss comparisons to geometric models of the dust production to infer that these features are likely caused by localized dust clumps in the new dust shell.
