摘要:

随着恒星振荡观测精度的提高,越来越多的恒星振荡性质可以被可靠地测量。解释这些测量结果需要对其与基本恒星性质之间联系的理论理解。在本研究中,我们关注重力模(g-模)频率中的相位偏移,这种偏移在红巨星分支恒星中观测到的混合偶极子模的渐近特征频率模式中被印刻。我们旨在揭示其物理起源,从而能够对观测进行有根据的解释。利用恒星模型,我们经验性地检验了 g 模偏移 ε_g(与波在腔边界处的反射有关,通常被认为是主导的相位项)和 glitch 对总可观测相位的贡献。我们发现,除了 ε_g 之外,浮力 glitch 在正确解释 g 模频率相位中也起重要作用。我们进一步发现,蒸发区中的 glitch 也对相位有贡献,并提出了一种量化这种贡献的公式。最后,我们提出对广泛使用的 ε_g 公式进行修改。g 模频率相位所携带的信息比之前考虑的要多。它具有巨大的分析潜力,不仅可以研究浮力腔的反射特性,还可以研究布伦特-韦斯谢尔频率中的 glitch 特性。

英文摘要:

With the increasing precision of asteroseismic observations, it becomes possible to reliably measure oscillation properties of an increasing number of stars. Interpreting these measurements requires a good theoretical understanding of their link to fundamental stellar properties. In this study, we focus on the phase offset in gravity(g)-mode frequencies, which is imprinted in the asymptotic eigenfrequency pattern of mixed dipole modes observed in red--giant branch stars. We aim to unravel its physical origin and thus enable an informed interpretation of observations. Using stellar models, we empirically test the contribution of the g-mode offset $\varepsilon_\mathrm{g}$ (which is related to the wave reflection at cavity boundaries and commonly considered to be the dominant phase term) and glitches to the total observable phase. We find that, additionally to $\varepsilon_\mathrm{g}$, buoyancy glitches play an important role in the correct interpretation of the g--mode frequency phase. We further find that glitches in the evanescent zone also contribute to the phase, and we present a formalism to quantify this contribution. Finally, we propose a modification to the widely used formula for $\varepsilon_\mathrm{g}$. The g--mode frequency phase carries more information than previously considered. It has large analytic potential to study not only the reflection properties of the buoyancy cavity, but also the properties of glitches in the Brunt-Väisälä frequency.
