AI 中文摘要

恒星棒是宿主星系长期演化的主要驱动力。为了更好地理解三维棒状结构密度、其轨道组成、恒星族群与潜在暗物质分布之间的联系,构建棒旋星系的详细动力学模型是必要的。然而,到目前为止,只有少数外部棒旋星系以这种方式被研究。我们提出了一种新的Schwarzschild轨道叠加代码,用于具有图旋转的三轴势,并使用强棒旋星系的N体模拟中的 mock数据对其进行了广泛测试。我们研究了此前未被考虑的近正面对向情况下模型参数的恢复,特别是在20°倾角下,我们证明模式速度和质光比的精度均为10%,暗物质晕质量标度的精度为20%。令人惊讶的是,在完全正面对向极限下,我们获得了精度相似的模式速度结果,而Tremaine-Weinberg等传统方法在此情况下不再适用。该结果表明,在固定棒长下改变模式速度(对应慢棒与快棒之间的过渡)会以产生垂直速度分布系统变化的方式改变分布函数,这种变化无法被平面内速度分量补偿。

英文摘要

Stellar bars are a major driving force in the secular evolution of their host galaxies. To better understand the connections between the 3D bar density structure, its orbital composition, stellar populations, and underlying dark matter distribution, it is desirable to construct detailed dynamical models of barred galaxies. However, only a few external barred galaxies have been studied in this way so far. We present a new Schwarzschild orbit superposition code for triaxial potentials with figure rotation and test it extensively using mock data from an N-body simulation of a strongly barred galaxy. We investigate the recovery of model parameters in the nearly face-on case which was not previously considered. In particular, we demonstrate a 10% accuracy of both the pattern speed and mass-to-light ratio and a 20% accuracy for the dark matter halo mass scaling at the inclination 20°. Surprisingly, we obtain a similarly accurate result for the pattern speed in an exact face-on limit, where conventional methods such as Tremaine-Weinberg are no longer applicable. This result suggests that varying the pattern speed at fixed bar length, corresponding to the transition between slow and fast bars, alters the distribution function in a way that produces a systematic change in the vertical velocity distribution, which can not be compensated by the in-plane velocity components.
