AI总结:

本文利用 Gaia DR3 数据从高自行、邻近和大质量恒星中筛选潜在透镜恒星,通过扩大源搜索范围预测了 4500 个天体测量微引力透镜事件,其中 1664 个为新发现,并验证了扩大锥形搜索范围可有效减少事件遗漏。

摘要:

目前,天体测量微引力透镜是唯一能够直接测量单颗恒星质量的工具,它还可以帮助我们探测孤立的中子星和黑洞等致密天体。被预测和报告的微引力透镜事件数量正在不断增加。本文从三类恒星中筛选潜在的透镜恒星:高自行恒星、邻近恒星和大质量恒星。对于每颗潜在的透镜恒星,我们选择更大的搜索范围来寻找可能的匹配源,以尽可能避免遗漏事件。利用 Gaia DR3 数据,我们预测了 4500 个信号大于 0.1 mas 的天体测量微引力透镜事件,这些事件发生在 J2010.0 至 J2070.0 之间,其中 1664 个事件与先前发现的不同。有 293 颗透镜恒星可以引发两个或更多事件,其中 5 颗透镜恒星可以引发超过 50 个事件。我们发现,在参考历元中,有 116 个事件的背景恒星与透镜恒星自行轨迹的距离超过 8 角秒,其中最大距离为 16.6 角秒,因此,为每颗潜在透镜恒星扩大源搜索范围的锥形搜索方法可以降低遗漏事件的可能性。

英文摘要:

Currently astrometric microlensing is the only tool that can directly measure the mass of a single star, it can also help us to detect compact objects like isolated neutron stars and black holes. The number of microlensing events that are being predicted and reported is increasing. In the paper, the potential lens stars are selected from three types of stars, high-proper-motion stars, nearby stars and high-mass stars. For each potential lens star, we select a larger search scope to find possible matching sources to avoid missing events as much as possible. Using Gaia DR3 data, we predict 4500 astrometric microlensing events with signal>0.1mas that occur between J2010.0 and J2070.0, where 1664 events are different from those found previously. There are 293 lens stars that can cause two or more events, where 5 lens stars can cause more than 50 events. We find that 116 events have the distance of background stars from the proper motion path of lens stars more than 8 arcsec in the reference epoch, where the maximum distance is 16.6 arcsec, so the cone search method of expanding the search range of sources for each potential lens star can reduce the possibility of missing events.
