摘要:

我们现在确认SDSS J222551.65+ 001637.7 AB是一个紧密分离的、分辨的白矮星-棕矮星双星。我们已经从GNIRS获得光谱,并从Gemini North上的NIRI获得了有限的$K_s$波段成像。该目标在空间上被分解成它的组成部分:一个10926 $ \pm$ 246 K白矮星,log $g = 8.214 \pm 0.168$和质量为0.66 $^{+0.11}_{-0.06}$ M $_{\odot}$,和一个L4褐矮星伴星,它们被$0.9498 \pm 0.0022$“分开。我们从索诺拉山猫进化模型的同伴的基本属性,找到一个质量的$25-53$ M $_{\text{Jup}}$和半径的$0.101-0.128$ R $_{\odot}$的褐矮星,在1 $σ$的置信水平。我们使用wdwarfdate来确定双星的年龄为$1.97^{+4.41}_{-0.76}$ Gyr。运动学分析表明,这对双星可能是厚盘的一员。到二进制的距离是218 $^{+14}_{-13}$ pc,因此二进制的投影分离是207 $^{+13}_{-12}$ AU。虽然白矮星的祖先是在主序列的二进制分离将是$69 \pm 5$ AU。SDSS J222551.65+ 001637.7 AB是继GD 165 AB和PHL 5038 AB之后第三个最近的空间分辨白矮星-棕矮星双星。

英文摘要:

We present the confirmation of SDSS J222551.65+001637.7AB as a closely separated, resolved, white dwarf-brown dwarf binary. We have obtained spectroscopy from GNIRS and seeing-limited $K_s$-band imaging from NIRI on Gemini North. The target is spatially resolved into its constituent components: a 10926$ \pm$ 246 K white dwarf, with log $g = 8.214 \pm 0.168$ and a mass of 0.66$^{+0.11}_{-0.06}$ M$_{\odot}$, and an L4 brown dwarf companion, which are separated by $0.9498 \pm 0.0022$". We derive the fundamental properties of the companion from the Sonora-Bobcat evolutionary models, finding a mass of $25-53$ M$_{\text{Jup}}$ and a radius of $0.101-0.128$ R$_{\odot}$ for the brown dwarf, at a confidence level of 1$σ$. We use wdwarfdate to determine the age of the binary as $1.97^{+4.41}_{-0.76}$ Gyr. A kinematic analysis shows that this binary is likely a member of the thick disc. The distance to the binary is 218$^{+14}_{-13}$ pc, and hence the projected separation of the binary is 207$^{+13}_{-12}$ AU. Whilst the white dwarf progenitor was on the main sequence the binary separation would have been $69 \pm 5$ AU. SDSS J222551.65+001637.7AB is the third closest spatially resolved white dwarf-brown dwarf binary after GD 165AB and PHL 5038AB.
