核心过冲受到太阳对流核心和一些类太阳恒星缺失的限制

Core overshoot constrained by the absence of a solar convective core and some solar-like stars

摘要:

对流核过冲混合是恒星演化中一个重要的不确定性。由于数值模拟和湍流对流模型预测径向均方根湍流速度呈指数下降,因此超调混合的流行处理方法是应用扩散系数呈指数下降的扩散过程。研究扩散系数的参数是很重要的,因为它们决定了过冲区的混合效率。本文利用日震推论和太阳8B中微子流观测,研究了太阳模型中核心过冲混合对核心性质的影响,并对过冲模型的参数进行了约束。对于太阳质量的恒星,核心过冲混合有助于延长在ZAMS开发的对流核心的寿命。如果混合的强度足够高,太阳模型中的对流核心可以存活到现在的太阳年龄,导致与日震推断相比,声速和密度分布的偏差很大。8B中微子流也有利于辐射太阳核。这些提供了对流过冲混合的指数扩散模型的参数的约束。对13颗1.0 < M < 1.5的开普勒低质量恒星进行的有限的星震调查显示,过冲参数的范围与质量有关。详细分析了不同元素的超调混合过程。研究发现,对于不同核平衡时标的元素,指数扩散超调模型导致不同的有效超调混合长度。

英文摘要:

Convective-core overshoot mixing is a significant uncertainty in stellar evolution. Because numerical simulations and turbulent convection models predict exponentially decreasing radial rms turbulent velocity, a popular treatment of the overshoot mixing is to apply a diffusion process with exponentially decreasing diffusion coefficient. It is important to investigate the parameters of the diffusion coefficient because they determine the efficiency of the mixing in the overshoot region. In this paper, we have investigated the effects of the core overshoot mixing on the properties of the core in solar models and have constrained the parameters of the overshoot model by using helioseismic inferences and the observation of the solar 8B neutrino flux. For solar-mass stars, the core overshoot mixing helps to prolong the lifetime of the convective core developed at the ZAMS. If the strength of the mixing is sufficiently high, the convective core in a solar model could survive till the present solar age, leading to large deviations of the sound-speed and density profiles comparing with the helioseismic inferences. The 8B neutrino flux also favours a radiative solar core. Those provide a constraint on the parameters of the exponential diffusion model of the convective overshoot mixing. A limited asteroseismic investigation of 13 Kepler low-mass stars with 1.0 < M < 1.5 shows a mass-dependent range of the overshoot parameter. The overshoot mixing processes for different elements are analyzed in detail. It is found that the exponential diffusion overshoot model leads to different effective overshoot mixing lengths for elements with different nuclear equilibrium timescale.
