IW中的SU UMa型超循环和周期间隙上方的型矮新星BO Cet

SU UMa-type supercycle in the IW And-type dwarf nova BO Cet above the period gap

Taichi Kato

摘要:

BO Cet是一颗著名的激变变星,其轨道周期在周期间隔(0.139835 d)之上,同时具有Z Cam/IW And星和SU Uma星的特征。使用小行星地球撞击最后警报系统(ATLAS)强制测光和超新星全天空自动巡天(ASAS-SN)天空巡逻数据,我发现BO Cet在2022年11月经历了一次超级爆发,经历了一系列短暂的,正常的爆发,振幅不断增加。这种爆发序列(超周期)是在许多SU Uma星中看到的,这一观察加强了这样一种建议,即在重复的正常爆发期间,盘中积累的质量和角动量甚至在不寻常的系统BO Cet中也会导致超级爆发。在超级大爆发之前的大爆发具有IW和型停顿的特征。这一现象加强了IW和恒星的终端爆发发生在盘半径达到一定限度时的建议。我认为这次爆发是一次失败的超级爆发,在此期间,盘达到了3:1共振的半径,但爆发在超级驼峰形成之前就消失了。在质量比处于3:1共振稳定性边界线上的BO Cet中,随着盘半径的增加,潮汐截断效应和3:1共振效应之间可能存在竞争,而后者在当前情况下获胜。这一发现可能表明,IW和型和SU UMa型现象的物理相关性比人们想象的更强。

英文摘要:

BO Cet is renowned cataclysmic variable having an orbital period above the period gap (0.139835 d) and showing both features of a Z Cam/IW And star and an SU UMa star. Using the Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System (ATLAS) forced photometry and the All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN) Sky Patrol data, I found that BO Cet underwent a superoutburst in 2022 October-November after a series of short, normal outbursts with increasing amplitudes. This sequence of outbursts (supercycle) is what is seen in many SU UMa stars and this observation strengthened the suggestion that the accumulating mass and angular momentum in the disk during repeated normal outbursts caused a superoutburst even in the unusual system BO Cet. The outburst just preceding the superoutburst bore characteristics of an IW And-type standstill. This phenomenon reinforces the suggestion that the terminal outburst in IW And stars occurs when the disk radius reaches a certain limit. I consider that this outburst was a failed superoutburst, during which the disk reached the radius of the 3:1 resonance but the outburst faded before superhumps developed. In BO Cet with a mass ratio on the borderline of the stability of the 3:1 resonance, there may have been a competition between the effects of tidal truncation and the 3:1 resonance as the disk radius grew and the latter won in the current case. This finding in BO Cet might suggest that IW And-type and SU UMa-type phenomena are more strongly physically related than have been thought.
