我们报告了对白矮星候选体 ZTF 185139.81+171430.3 在 R 和 B 波段的相位分辨光学光谱和测光观测。该源此前被报道在 R 波段具有接近 1 星等的大振幅变光,以及 12.37 分钟的短周期。我们确认了这一周期,并将其解释为白矮星的自转周期。光学光谱显示出氢和氦的发射线叠加在无特征连续谱上。连续谱的形状在整个周期内发生变化,当源变亮时颜色变得更红。有初步证据表明发射线在自转周期内存在多普勒位移,振幅为几十 km s$^{-1}$。值得注意的是,H$α$ 和 H$β$ 线表现出不同的视向速度振幅,表明它们来自不同的发射区域。我们还基于可能的轨道边带,识别出一个候选轨道周期为 1.00 小时。这些特征——在自转频率上调制的多普勒位移、亮度变化以及连续谱形状变化——与吸积帷幔模型一致,在该模型中,物质从截断的内盘沿磁场线漏斗状流向白矮星的磁极。
英文摘要:
We report on phase-resolved optical spectroscopy and photometry in the R and B bands of the white dwarf candidate ZTF 185139.81+171430.3. The source has been reported to be variable with a large amplitude of close to 1 magnitude, in the R band, and a short period of 12.37 min. We confirm this period and interpret it as the spin period of the white dwarf. The optical spectrum shows emission lines from hydrogen and helium superposed on a featureless continuum. The continuum changes shape throughout a cycle, such that it is redder when the source is bright. There is tentative evidence for Doppler shifts in the emission lines during the spin cycle with an amplitude of a few tens of km s$^{-1}$. Notably, the H$α$ and H$β$ lines exhibit different radial velocity amplitudes, suggesting that they come from different emission regions. We also identify a candidate orbital period of 1.00 hr, based on potential orbital sidebands. These features - Doppler shifts modulated at the spin frequency, brightness variations, and continuum shape changes - are consistent with the accretion curtain model, in which material is funneled from a truncated inner disc along magnetic field lines onto the magnetic poles of the white dwarf.
