AI 中文摘要
我们利用凯克行星探测器(KPF)光谱仪的高分辨率和光谱稳定性,通过恒星交叉相关函数(CCF)研究宏观湍流展宽。作为校准样本,我们使用主序基准慢自转体,其v$\sin$i < 4 km/s,这些恒星的自转速率源自最稳健的星震学模式分裂测量,与谱线展宽无关。我们拟合了宏观湍流与推导出的$\nu_{max}$(恒星振荡最大功率频率)之间的线性关系,其RMS离散度为90 m/s。以往研究针对T$_{eff}$校准宏观湍流,但我们发现$\nu_{max}$作为预测因子的离散度低4倍,表明$\nu_{max}$与对流运动之间存在更深层次的联系。
英文摘要
We leverage the high resolution and spectral stability of the Keck Planet Finder (KPF) spectrograph to investigate macroturbulence broadening via the stellar cross-correlation function (CCF). As our calibration sample, we use main sequence benchmark slow-rotators v$\sin$i < 4 km/s where rotation rates were derived from the most robust asteroseismic mode splitting measurements, independent from spectral line broadening. We fit a linear relationship for macroturbulence as a function of derived $ν_{max}$, the frequency of maximum power due to stellar oscillations, with an RMS scatter of 90 m/s. Previous studies have calibrated macroturbulence against T$_{eff}$, but we find $ν_{max}$ to be a lower dispersion predictor by a factor of 4 indicating a deeper relationship between $ν_{max}$and convective motions.
