AI总结:

本研究针对碳AGB星V Cyg,结合多波段观测与建模,解析其星周尘埃包层结构,发现存在倾斜赤道盘/环面结构,提升了恒星光度测量精度,并探讨了盘与包层水含量的关联。

摘要:

AGB(渐近巨星支)恒星是星际介质中尘埃与复杂分子的主要来源。星周环境的未知几何结构往往会阻碍外流参数的测定,因此亟需高角分辨率观测。我们利用碳AGB星V Cyg的近红外(NIR)光谱与测光数据,结合已发表的文献数据,构建了其宽波长范围的光谱能量分布(SED)。借助差分斑点偏振测量技术,我们在50-80毫角秒的角尺度上,解析了产生红外超的尘埃包层的散射偏振光。我们通过两类模型解释尘埃的热辐射与散射辐射:一类是球对称尘埃外流模型(尘埃质量为5.3×10^-7倍太阳质量),另一类是倾斜的赤道密度增强结构,形式可为盘(尘埃质量为7.6×10^-3倍地球质量)或环面(尘埃质量为5.7×10^-3倍地球质量),其物质集中在距星心小于25天文单位(AU)的范围内。尘埃物质由无定形碳与碳化硅(SiC)组成,其中84%的尘埃为无定形碳。尘埃颗粒半径范围为5至950纳米,遵循指数为-3.5的幂律分布。通过对包层的建模,我们提升了恒星光度估计的精度:光度极大值为21000倍太阳光度,极小值为8300倍太阳光度。我们还讨论了该盘与包层内高水含量之间的关联。

英文摘要:

AGB stars are the primary source of dust and complex molecules in the interstellar medium. The determination of outflow parameters is often hindered by the unknown geometry of the circumstellar environment, creating a demand for high-angular resolution observations. We use our NIR spectra and photometry of the carbon AGB star V Cyg, along with literature data, to construct its SED over a wide range of wavelengths. The dust envelope responsible for the IR excess was also resolved in scattered polarized light at angular scales of 50-80 mas using differential speckle polarimetry. We present an interpretation of the thermal and scattered radiation of the dust using models of a spherical dusty outflow (Mdust = 5.3e-7 M_sun) and an inclined equatorial density enhancement, either in the form of a disk (Mdust = 7.6e-3 M_earth) or a torus (Mdust = 5.7e-3 M_earth), which material is concentrated at stellocentric distances less than 25 AU. The dust material consists of amorphous carbon and SiC, with 84% of the dust being amorphous carbon. Dust particle radii range from 5 to 950 nm and follow a power law with an exponent of -3.5. Modeling of the envelope allowed us to improve the accuracy of stellar luminosity estimations: 21000 L_sun and 8300 L_sun at maximum and minimum brightness, respectively. The relation between the disk and the high water content in the envelope is also discussed.
