AI总结:

研究分析RY Tau与SU Aur的长期光谱变化,发现盘风中周期性H-alpha信号符合开普勒运动,并提出由吸积盘子结构产生、延伸至阿尔文面外的密度流。

摘要:

本文分析了2013年至2022年经典金牛T星RY Tau和SU Aur的光谱与测光变化。我们发现,在SU Aur中,H-alpha线在径向速度RV = -50 ± 7 km/s处的流量以P = 255 ± 5天的周期变化。新数据证实了此前在RY Tau中发现的类似效应:在RV = -95 ± 5 km/s处,P = 21.6天。结果表明,在这两颗恒星中,这些变化的径向速度、周期以及恒星质量均符合开普勒定律,这意味着盘面上存在结构特征,其轨道半径分别为RY Tau中的0.2 AU和SU Aur中的0.9 AU。两颗恒星的吸积盘相对于视线均具有较大倾角,因此视线会穿过盘风区域。我们认为盘风中存在方位角不对称性,推测其表现为由吸积盘表面子结构造成的“密度流”。这些流在越过盘磁场中的阿尔文面之前不会耗散。这些发现为认识CTTS内吸积盘在小于1 AU尺度上的结构,并揭示与行星形成相关的轨道距离提供了可能。

英文摘要:

Spectral and photometric variability of the Classical T Tauri stars RY Tau and SU Aur from 2013 to 2022 is analyzed. We find that in SU Aur the H-alpha line's flux at radial velocity RV = -50 +- 7 km/s varies with a period P = 255 +- 5 days. A similar effect previously discovered in RY Tau is confirmed with these new data: P = 21.6 days at RV = -95 +- 5 km/s. In both stars, the radial velocity of these variations, the period, and the mass of the star turn out to be related by Kepler's law, suggesting structural features on the disc plane orbiting at radii of 0.2 AU in RY Tau and 0.9 AU in SU Aur, respectively. Both stars have a large inclination of the accretion disc to the line of sight - so that the line of sight passes through the region of the disc wind. We propose there is an azimuthal asymmetry in the disc wind, presumably in the form of 'density streams', caused by substructures of the accretion disc surface. These streams cannot dissipate until they go beyond the Alfven surface in the disc's magnetic field. These findings open up the possibility to learn about the structure of the inner accretion disc of CTTS on scales less than 1 AU and to reveal the orbital distances related to the planet's formation.
