研究通过DLEIY模型分析矮星团星系,发现Ia型超新星爆发率和延迟时间分布与金属licity有关,且镁产量高于理论值。

摘要:

恒星群体的化学丰度包含关于核合成及其天体物理场所的信息,但这一信息受到宿主星系特定恒星形成历史的干扰。因此,利用丰度来对超新星产量和时间进行实证约束一直非常具有挑战性。我们引入了一个银河化学演化的模型DLEIY,该模型利用观测到的恒星形成历史和金属分布来减少这些干扰因素。利用矮星团星系 Sculptor 和 Fornax 的联合统计模型,DLEIY 实现了对群体平均产量和银河喷流的同时约束,而无需固定核合成产量的绝对尺度。核心坍缩超新星的铁产量与现有理论产量模型一致,而测量的镁产量比理论值高2-4倍,证实了之前的观点,即产量模型可能低估了[Mg/Fe]。我们还发现,Ia型超新星的爆发率相对于普通星系提高了约5倍,延迟时间分布与超新星观测到的分布(~t^{-1.1})相比更为陡峭(~t^{-2})。这些发现可能表明Ia型超新星的爆发率和延迟时间分布具有金属licity依赖性。

英文摘要:

The chemical abundances of a stellar population encode information about nucleosynthesis and its astrophysical sites, but this information is confounded by the specific star formation history of the host galaxy. As a result, placing empirical constraints on supernova yields and timing using abundances has been very challenging. We introduce a galactic chemical evolution model DLEIY that uses an observed star formation history and metallicity distribution to reduce these confounding factors. Using a joint statistical model of the dwarf spheroidal galaxies Sculptor and Fornax, simultaneous constraints on population-averaged yields and galactic outflows are achieved with DLEIY, without fixing the absolute scale of nucleosynthetic yields. The Fe yield from core collapse supernovae is consistent with existing theoretical yield models, while the measured Mg yield is a factor of 2-4 higher, corroborating previous suggestions that yield models may under-predict [Mg/Fe]. We also find that the rate of Type Ia supernovae is enhanced by about a factor of 5 relative to field galaxies, and the delay-time distribution goes as $\sim t^{-2}$, a much steeper relationship than that measured from supernova surveys ($\sim t^{-1.1}$). These findings may suggest a metallicity dependence of the Type Ia rate and delay-time distribution.
