α Per的亚恒星质量函数

A Substellar Mass Function for Alpha Per

David Barrado y Navascues, Jerome Bouvier, John R. Stauffer, Nicolas Lodieu, Mark J. McCaughrean

摘要:

我们提出了一个深,宽视场光学调查的年轻星团阿尔法每,我们已经发现了大量的候选人褐矮星。随后的红外光度跟踪显示,它们中的大多数可能是星团的成员,最小质量为0.035 Msun。我们已经用这个成员列表导出了星团亚恒星群的光度和质量函数(α =0.59+-0.05),并将其斜率与昂宿星团的值测量进行了比较。这一比较表明,两个星系团的质量函数确实非常相似。

英文摘要:

We present a deep, wide-field optical survey of the young stellar cluster Alpha Per, in which we have discovered a large population of candidate brown dwarfs. Subsequent infrared photometric follow-up shows that the majority of them are probable or possible members of the cluster, reaching to a minimum mass of 0.035 Msun. We have used this list of members to derive the luminosity and mass functions of the substellar population of the cluster (alpha=0.59+-0.05) and compared its slope to the value measure for the Pleiades. This comparison indicates that the two cluster mass functions are, indeed, very similar.
