AI总结:

本文基于 Gaia DR3 的 67 万余颗太阳邻区演化恒星,用单成分银河系模型拟合 180 个子样本,揭示薄盘标高随绝对星等变化及其星系演化含义。

摘要:

本研究通过分析太阳邻区演化恒星的空间分布,考察薄盘星族的结构参数。研究从 Gaia Data Release 3 数据库中选取了距离在 1 kpc 以内、相对视差误差满足 σ_varpi/varpi≤0.10 的约 3910 万颗恒星。测光数据利用银道面尘埃图进行了消光改正。随后,通过限定与演化恒星相对应的 M_G×(G_BP−G_RP)_0 颜色—星等区域,并采用更严格的视差误差限制 σ_varpi/varpi≤0.02,对样本进行精化,最终得到 671,600 颗恒星。根据银道坐标,恒星样本被划分为 36 个天区;对于绝对星等处于 −1<M_G (mag)≤4 范围内的演化恒星,又进一步划分为五个宽度为 1 个星等的区间。由此共得到 180 个子样本,并采用单成分银河系模型对其空间密度轮廓进行建模。分析表明,所得空间密度与文献结果一致,标高随绝对星等在 200<H (pc)<600 的区间内变化。研究还估计太阳邻区红团簇恒星的标高为 295±10 pc。这些结果表明,具有明亮绝对星等的演化恒星源自标高较小的早光谱型恒星演化,而较暗的演化恒星则来自标高较大的中等光谱型恒星;这说明标高的变化反映了银河系演化过程的贡献。

英文摘要:

This study investigates the structural parameters of the thin-disk population by analyzing the spatial distribution of evolved stars in the solar neighbourhood. From the $\it Gaia$ Data Release 3 database, about 39.1 million stars within 1 kpc and with relative parallax errors $σ_{\varpi}/\varpi\leq 0.10$ were selected. The photometric data was corrected for extinction using a Galactic dust map. The sample was refined by considering the color-magnitude region $M_{\rm G}\times (G_{\rm BP}-G_{\rm RP})_0$ associated with evolved stars, applying a stricter parallax error limit of $σ_{\varpi}/\varpi\leq 0.02$, and yielding 671,600 stars. The star sample was divided into 36 regions based on their Galactic coordinates, with evolved stars in the absolute magnitude range of $-1< M_{\rm G}~{\rm (mag)}\leq 4$ further split into five one-unit magnitude intervals. This led to 180 subgroups whose space density profiles were modelled using a single-component Galaxy model. The analysis shows that the space densities are in agreement with the literature and that the scale heights vary with $200<H~{\rm (pc)}<600$ interval to their absolute magnitudes. Red clump stars in the solar neighbourhood were also estimated to have a scale height of $295\pm10$ pc. These findings indicate that evolved stars with bright absolute magnitudes originate from the evolution of the early spectral-type stars with short scale height, while fainter ones come from the evolution of the intermediate spectral-type stars with large scale height, suggesting variations in scale height reflect the contribution of Galactic evolution processes.
