[论文解读] A new method for the spectroscopic identification of stellar non-radial pulsation modes. II. Mode identification of the Delta Scuti star FG Virginis
本研究首次将傅里叶参数拟合(FPF)方法应用于高分辨率光谱时序数据,对δ Scuti型恒星FG Virginis进行研究,成功精确识别出12个非径向脉动模的模式。该方法成功确定了方位度数$m$,并约束了球谐度数$l$,得出倾角为$19^ ext{ extdegree} \pm 5^ ext{ extdegree}$,赤道自转速度为$66 \pm 16$ km s$^{-1}$,显著提升了星震学建模的约束条件。
We present a mode identification based on new high-resolution time-series spectra of the non-radially pulsating Delta Scuti star FG~Vir (HD 106384, V = 6.57, A5V). From 2002 February to June a global Delta Scuti Network (DSN) campaign, utilizing high-resolution spectroscopy and simultaneous photometry has been conducted for FG~Vir in order to provide a theoretical pulsation model. In this campaign we have acquired 969 Echelle spectra covering 147 hours at six observatories. The mode identification was carried out by analyzing line profile variations by means of the Fourier parameter fit method, where the observational Fourier parameters across the line are fitted with theoretical values. This method is especially well suited for determining the azimuthal order m of non-radial pulsation modes and thus complementary with the method of Daszynska-Daszkiewicz (2002) which does best at identifying the degree l. 15 frequencies between 9.2 and 33.5 c/d were detected spectroscopically. We determined the azimuthal order m of 12 modes and constrained their harmonic degree l. Only modes of low degree (l <= 4) were detected, most of them having axisymmetric character mainly due to the relatively low projected rotational velocity of FG Vir. The detected non-axisymmetric modes have azimuthal orders between -2 and 1. We derived an inclination of 19 degrees, which implies an equatorial rotational rate of 66 km/s.

主要发现
- 在FG Virginis中,通过光谱检测到15个频率在9.2至33.5 d$^{-1}$之间的脉动频率。
- 12个独立模式被识别,其$m$值范围从-2到1,其中大多数为轴对称模式($m=0$)。
- 恒星倾角被确定为$19^\circ \pm 5^\circ$,显著低于以往估计值。
- 赤道自转速度确定为$66 \pm 16$ km s$^{-1}$,与三重态($\nu_7$,$\nu_9$,$\nu_{10}$)的旋转劈裂一致。
- 由劈裂得出的自转频率(0.53 d$^{-1}$)与独立推导出的值(0.57 $\pm$ 0.14 d$^{-1}$)相符。
- 对流在FG Virginis中相对低效,表现为11个频率上实测$f$-值与理论$f$-值匹配良好。
