摘要
本文给出35个不同类型含SiO(v=1,J=1-0)脉泽发射的AGB星的近红外观测结果(其中包括6个Ⅰ型OH星,13个Ⅱ型OH星,9个仅有SiO脉泽的星以及7个无OH脉泽但有SiO和H2O脉泽的星).得出了它们的JHK星等和流量.同时经认证找出了它们对应的IRAS观测数据.通过对它们的近红外、中远红外以及OH射电资料的同时分析,得出了不同类型SiO脉泽星的色指数、谱斜率以及在近红外波段上拟合的等效黑体温度Teq.由红外及OH射电资料导出了其中心星的质量损失率M,并在此基础上结合已知的SiO脉泽源资料,找出了不同类型SiO脉泽星各量之间的关系.计算结果表明,SiO脉泽具有普遍性,在各类脉泽星中都可出现.SiO脉泽的光度与质量损失率弱相关,并且从(Mira)SiO到(OH/IR)SiO逐渐增加.SiO脉泽的流量与近红外“色”以及等效黑体温度Teq的关系较为密切.SiO脉泽积分流量的上限与IRAS在12μm和25μm上流量分别都相关.本文对SiO脉泽在AGB演化中的地位和特殊性进行了简单讨论.
Near-infrared photometry of 35 SiO maser stars of various types is presented in this paper.6 OH maser stars of type Ⅰ,13 OH maser stars of type Ⅱ,9 pure SiO maser stars,7 SiO,H 2O maser stars are included in it.Combining the JHK flux densities from the IRAS data,the distributions of SiO maser stars of different types on two color-color diagrams are obtained.The spectral slopes,equivalent black body temperature,maser luminosities and mass-loss rates of the central stars are calculated from the infrared and radio data.The parameters are then compared and analysed for the SiO maser stars of various types.The results show that SiO masers are common in AGB stages.Integrated luminosities of SiO masers are only weakly correlated with mass-loss rates,and increase slowly along the sequence from Mira stars to OH/IR stars.The flux densities of the SiO masers are rather closely related with the near-infrared `colors' and the equivalent black-body temperatures.Moreover,its upper limit is correlated with the 12μm and 25μm fluxes.This paper also briefly discusses the general function and specific role of SiO masers in the evolution of AGB stars.
