摘要:

利用重新估算的{ \it Gaia} DR 3的三角函数建立了激变变量的空间分布、银河系模型参数和光度函数。本研究中的1,587个CV的数据样本声称适合于银河系模型参数估计,因为距离是基于三角函数的,并且在创建样本时考虑了{ \it Gaia} DR 3光度完整性限制。根据分析,所有CV的标度高度从248 $\pm$ 2增加到430 $\pm$ 4 pc向更短的周期附近的周期间隙的下限,突然下降到300 $\pm$ 2 pc的最短的轨道周期CV。所有CV和磁性系统的指数标度高度分别为375 $\pm$ 2和281 $\pm$ 3 pc,比以前的观测研究中提出的要大得多。样品中所有CV和磁性系统的局域空间密度分别为$6.8^{+1.3}_{-1.1}\times$ 10 $^{-6}$和$2.1^{+0.5}_{-0.4}\times10^{-6}$ pc $^{-3}$。我们的测量加强了1-2个数量级的CV空间密度预测的人口合成模型和观测之间的差异。这种差异可能是由于CV调查未检测到的对象,例如具有非常低的$\dot{M}$的系统和处于周期间隙中的系统。比较了白矮星的光度函数和所有CV的光度函数,发现CV的500倍光度函数与白矮星的光度函数非常吻合。我们的结论是,本研究中的估计和数据样本可以自信地用于进一步的CV分析。

英文摘要:

The spatial distribution, Galactic model parameters and luminosity function of cataclysmic variables (CVs) are established using re-estimated trigonometric parallaxes of {\it Gaia} DR3. The data sample of 1,587 CVs in this study is claimed to be suitable for Galactic model parameter estimation as the distances are based on trigonometric parallaxes and the {\it Gaia} DR3 photometric completeness limits were taken into account when the sample was created. According to the analysis, the scale height of All CVs increases from 248$\pm$2 to 430$\pm$4 pc towards shorter periods near the lower limit of the period gap and suddenly drops to 300$\pm$2 pc for the shortest orbital period CVs. The exponential scale heights of All CVs and magnetic systems are found to be 375$\pm$2 and 281$\pm$3 pc, respectively, considerably larger than those suggested in previous observational studies. The local space density of All CVs and magnetic systems in the sample are $6.8^{+1.3}_{-1.1}\times$10$^{-6}$ and $2.1^{+0.5}_{-0.4}\times10^{-6}$ pc$^{-3}$, respectively. Our measurements strengthen the 1-2 order of magnitude discrepancy between CV space densities predicted by population synthesis models and observations. It is likely that this discrepancy is due to objects undetected by CV surveys, such as the systems with very low $\dot{M}$ and the ones in the period gap. The comparisons of the luminosity function of white dwarfs with the luminosity function of All CVs in this study show that 500 times the luminosity function of CVs fits very well to the luminosity function of white dwarfs. We conclude that the estimations and data sample in this study can be confidently used in further analysis of CVs.
