In this work we examine the damping of Alfvén waves as a source of plasma heating in disks and magnetic funnels of young solar
like stars, the T Tauri stars. We apply four different damping mechanisms in this study: viscous-resistive, collisional, nonlinear
and turbulent, exploring a wide range of wave frequencies, from 10−5Ωi to 10−1Ωi (where Ωi is the ion-cyclotron frequency). The results show that Alfvénic heating can increase the ionization rate of accretion disks
and elevate the temperature of magnetic funnels of T Tauri stars opening possibilities to explain some observational features
of these objects.

ESO 3.6m Caspec spectra of the LMC luminous blue variable (LBV) taken at minimum have been analysed using NLTE model atmospheres and line formation calculations to derive atmospheric parameters and chemical composition. Using the silicon ionization balance and the hydrogen Balmer lines we deriveT
eff
=17250, log g=1.80 and a microturbulent velocity of 15–20 km/s. The analysis yields abundance ratios by number of approximately 0.43 for He/H, 0.03 for C/N and 0.14 for O/N, implying that enrichment of the atmosphere by processed material has taken place. We have re-evaluated the reddening of R71 using IUE low resolution data and published UBVRIJHKL photometry and derive a value for A
V
of 0.63. We also construct an extinction curve using archive IUE data for mid-B LMC supergiants and show that the extinction is anomalous; the 2175A bump being almost absent and the far UV rise very pronounced. A comparison of our model flux in theV-band with the observed (dereddened)V magnitude and the D.M. of the LMC (18.45), implies that the bolometric magnitude or R71 is –9.9. This is significantly higher than the value of –9.0 usually adopted for R71 and suggests that this object may not in fact be a subluminous LBV. 相似文献

This paper reviews the multi-wavelength properties of two groups of pulsars, the Anomalous X-ray Pulsars (AXPs) and the Soft Gamma-ray Repeaters (SGRs), that are generally interpreted as isolated neutron stars with strong magnetic fields of 1014–1015 G. Most of these sources have now been observed at different wavelengths, from the radio band to hard X-rays. Several new members of these classes have been discovered in the last few years, due to their transient nature. The distinction between AXPs and SGRs is becoming less evident, as more observations are collected which show similar properties in all these sources. 相似文献

Debris discs around stars were first discovered by the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) in 1983. For the first time
material orbiting another star than the Sun, but distinct from a circumstellar envelope, was observed through its far infrared
emission. This major discovery motivated astronomers to investigate those discs by further analyzing the IRAS data, using
ground-based telescopes for the hunting of exoplanets, developing several projects using the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO),
and now exploiting the ISO Data Archive (IDA). This review presents the main ISO results, statistical as well as individual,
on debris discs in orbit around pre-main-sequence and main-sequence stars.
Based on observations with ISO, an ESA project with instruments funded by ESA Member States (especially the PI countries:
France, Germany, The Netherlands, and the United Kingdom), and with the participation of ISAS and NASA. 相似文献

Cool giant and supergiant stars generally present low velocity winds with high mass-loss rates. Several models have been proposed
to explain the acceleration process of these winds. Although dust is known to be present in these objects, the radiation pressure
on these particles is uneffective in reproducing the observed physical parameters of the wind. The most promising acceleration
mechanism cited in the literature is the transference of momentum and energy from Alfvén waves to the gas. Usually, these
models consider the wind to be isothermal. We present a stellar wind model in which the Alfvén waves are used as the main
acceleration mechanism, and determine the temperature profile by solving the energy equation taking into account both the
radiative losses and the wave heating. We also determine, self-consistently, the magnetic field geometry as the result of
the competition between the magnetic field and the thermal pressure gradient. As the main result, we show that the magnetic
geometry presents a super-radial index in the region where the gas pressure is increasing. However, this super-radial index
is greater than that observed for the solar corona. 相似文献

Some aspects of fluid instabilities occurring in the magnetospheres of accreting neutron stars are discussed. It is pointed out that (i) in the absence of strong differential rotation, the accreting plasma should be drawn out into spiralling, sheet-like structures, resulting in efficient mixing between the two media; (ii) the Rayleigh-Taylor instability also acts to limit the X-ray luminosity in super-critical sources; and (iii) magnetic shear has a strong stabilizing influence on Kelvin-Helmholtz modes, and its presence may allow substantial amounts of material to be supported around the magnetosphere. 相似文献

We used the ugr magnitudes of 1437467 F-G type main-sequence stars with metal abundance dex and estimated radial and vertical metallicity gradients for high Galactic-latitude fields, and , of the Milky Way Galaxy. The radial metallicity gradient dex kpc?1 estimated for the stars with kpc is attributed to the thin-disc population. While, the radial gradients evaluated for stars at higher vertical distances are close to zero indicating that the thick disc and halo have not undergone a radial collapse phase at least at high Galactic latitudes. The vertical metallicity gradients estimated for stars with three different Galactic latitudes, and do not show a strong indication for Galactic latitude dependence of our gradients. The thin disc, kpc, with a vertical metallicity gradient dex kpc?1, is dominant only in galactocentric distance interval kpc, while the thick disc ( kpc) could be observed in the intervals and kpc with compatible vertical metallicity gradients, i.e. dex kpc?1 and dex kpc?1. Five vertical metallicity gradients are estimated for the halo ( kpc) in three galactocentric distance intervals, and kpc. The first one corresponding to the interval kpc is equal to dex kpc?1, while the others at larger galactocentric distances are close to zero. We derived synthetic vertical metallicity gradients for 2,230,167 stars and compared them with the observed ones. There is a good agreement between the two sets of vertical metallicity gradients for the thin disc, while they are different for the thick disc. For the halo, the conspicuous difference corresponds to the galactocentric distance interval kpc, while they are compatible at higher galactocentric distance intervals. 相似文献

This review summarises recent studies of O-stars, Luminous Blue Variables (LBVs) and Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars, emphasising observations and analyses of their atmospheres and stellar winds yielding determinations of their physical and chemical properties. Studies of these stellar groups provide important tests of both stellar wind theory and stellar evolution models incorporating mass-loss effects. Quantitative analyses of O-star spectra reveal enhanced helium abundances in Of and many luminous O-supergiants, together with CNO anomalies in OBN and Ofpe/WN9 stars, indicative of evolved objects. Enhanced helium, and CNO-cycle products are observed in several LBVs, implying a highly evolved status, whilst for the WR stars there is strong evidence for the exposition of CNO-cycle products in WN stars, and helium-burning products in WC and WO stars. The observed wind properties and mass-loss rates derived for O-stars show, in general terms, good agreement with predictions from the latest radiation-driven wind models, although some discrepancies are apparent. Several LBVs show similar mass-loss rates at maximum and minimum states, contrary to previous expectations, with the mechanism responsible for the variability and outbursts remaining unclear. WR stars exhibit the most extreme levels of mass-loss and stellar wind momenta. Whilst alternative mass-loss mechanisms have been proposed, recent calculations indicate that radiation pressure alone may be sufficient, given the strong ionization stratification present in their winds. 相似文献

We report on our recent progress in modeling non-LTE atmospheres of O-stars including blanketing by lines from the iron group elements. The numerical method to account for the huge number of atomic levels and line transitions is presented. Results of exploratory model calculations examining the effects on the temperature structure, the hydrogen and helium line profiles and UV/EUV fluxes are discussed. 相似文献
