摘要:

分析了分布在本星系群旋涡星系M31和M33盘上的蓝超巨星的低分辨率LAMOST和Keck光谱,以确定恒星的有效温度、重力、金属丰度和红化。测量了M31和M33的$0.30\pm0.09$和$0.11\pm0.04$的星系中心对数金属丰度(太阳单位)和$-0.37\pm0.13$ dex/ $R_{25}$和$-0.36\pm0.16$ dex/ $R_{25}$的金属丰度梯度。对于M 33的金属丰度的二维分布表明偏离方位角对称与偏心峰。利用蓝超巨星的通量加权重力-光度关系确定了M 31的距离模为24.51 $\pm$ 0.13等,M 33的距离模为24.93 $\pm$ 0.07等。对于M31,通量加权的重光关系(FGLR)距离与其他方法一致。对于M 33,基于FGLR的距离大于造父变星研究的距离,但它与食双星、行星状星云、长周期变星和红巨星分支的尖端的工作非常一致。

英文摘要:

Low-resolution LAMOST and Keck spectra of blue supergiant stars distributed over the disks of the Local Group spiral galaxies M 31 and M 33 are analyzed to determine stellar effective temperatures, gravities, metallicities, and reddening. Logarithmic metallicities at the center of the galaxies (in solar units) of $0.30\pm0.09$ and $0.11\pm0.04$ and metallicity gradients of $-0.37\pm0.13$ dex/$R_{25}$ and $-0.36\pm0.16$ dex/$R_{25}$ are measured for M 31 and M 33, respectively. For M 33 the 2-dimensional distribution of metallicity indicates a deviation from azimutal symmetry with an off-centre peak. The flux-weighted gravity-luminosity relationship of blue supergiant stars is used to determine a distance modulus of 24.51$\pm$0.13 mag for M 31 and 24.93$\pm$0.07 mag for M 33. For M 31 the flux-weighted gravity--luminosity relationship (FGLR) distance agrees well with other methods. For M 33 the FGLR-based distance is larger than the distances from Cepheids studies but it is in good agreement with work on eclipsing binaries, planetary nebulae , long-period variables, and the tip of the red giant branch.
