迄今已经在104个河外星系中检测到水脉泽辐射.同其它没有检测到水脉泽的星系相比,水脉泽星系可能隐含着某种或某些特殊性质.收集了到当前为止(截止2008.09)发表的所有水脉泽星系以及相关的观测资料.计算得到了这些源的星系盘的倾角,并分析讨论了这些水脉泽源星系盘和脉泽盘的倾角可能存在的相关.统计发现只有大约10%的盘脉泽源的星系盘侧面对着我们的视线.然而VLBI对6个盘脉泽源高空间分辨率的成图观测显示那些旋转脉泽盘都是近似侧向的,脉泽盘的倾角都大于80°.对大多数水盘脉泽星系而言,他们的星系盘和脉泽盘方向不一致,这可能间接支持盘脉泽仅仅同星系核相关.为了探讨遮蔽物质的由来和水脉泽辐射的放大机制,对整个水脉泽样本的脉泽光度,X射线吸收气体柱密度和寄主星系倾角的可能相关进行了分析.结果显示高密度的遮蔽物质主要来自于星系核区,而水脉泽辐射的放大更可能发生在围绕核的尘埃盘(~100Pc)或更小尺度的核盘上.  相似文献

本文介绍有关宇宙水的研究的新进展,事实上现在振动基态6_(16)-5_(23)水脉泽(λ=1.3cm)已不再是可以用来研究宇宙水的唯一谱线了。由于科学技术的进步,振动基态的一些其他水脉泽,振动激发态的一些发射线与吸收线已变得可以探测。宇宙水除了1.3cm波段外,还可以通过在毫米、亚毫米、红外波段的多种谱线来进行研究,取得更丰富、更全面的天文信息。  相似文献

用中科院射电联合实验室上海天文台25米望远镜,对19个已知水脉泽源和20个HII区候选源进行了水脉泽观测和搜寻,共测到水脉泽辐射21个,包括2个首次测到S/N≥3σ的源.结合已知脉泽资料求出了脉泽时变,发现峰值流量的变化比较普遍,包括同一峰强度变化及不同成分置换引起的变化两种情况,峰值速度变化多数由不同成分置换所造成.证认了对应的IRAS源并探讨了脉泽辐射与红外参量的关系,表明红外辐射的强度对脉泽产生率的影响比颜色分布的影响大.  相似文献

水超脉泽辐射( 各向同性光度超过 10 个太阳光度) 通常在星系中心最内部的核区( 小于几个秒差距) 被发现,因而活动星系核被认为是其唯一的能量源。同其它没有检测到水脉泽辐射的活动星系核相比,水脉泽寄主活动星系核可能隐含着某种或某些特殊性质。基于此我们调研了已经公开发表的所有水脉泽源的 X 射线观测情况,得到了一个有 X 射线观测研究结果的子样本( 39 个源) 。由它们的 X 射线光度以及估算的黑洞质量,导出了它们的无量纲吸积率( logL2-10keV /LEdd,其中 L2-10keV和 LEdd分别是 2 - 10keV 的固有光度和爱丁顿光度) ; 与距离范围相当的、没有检测到水脉泽的活动星系核样本相比,发现脉泽寄主活动星系核有较高的吸积率。进一步分析比较这两个活动星系核样本的质量吸积率,也发现类似的趋势。此外,为了探索吸积率和水脉泽辐射间可能的内在联系,我们对它们的脉泽光度和吸积率进行了统计分析,然而结果显示二者之间没有明显的相关性。  相似文献

通过对 W3(OH)区域 22 GHz H_(2)O脉泽源的短时间跟踪观测,探测到速度为-52.8 km/s子谱的流量密度呈线性下降趋势,变化时标约为 19天.同时也观测到了整个脉 泽源的谱线宽度与该子谱的强度之间的相关变化.这些现象可能是由脉泽云之间的相 互碰撞导致脉泽抽运率的变化所引起的。  相似文献

本文对猎户座IRc2的正、仲水脉泽区的物理条件作初步研究。结果表明在动能温度600K左右,尘埃温度低于350K,密度约10~(8±0.5)cm~(-3)和水对氢分子相对丰度与速度梯度比为4×10~(-9)pcskm~(-1)的条件下,仲水3_(13)—2_(20),5_(15)—4_(22)及正水6_(16)—5_(23),4_(14)—3_(21)脉泽可能同时呈现。这个区域的水丰度约为4×10~(-6)。热尘埃并不使脉泽加强,碰撞抽运是激发星际水脉泽的一个可能机制。高密度下,准共振碰撞效应的计入可以解释6_(16)—5_(23)脉泽的高亮温度。  相似文献

It is recognized that the interstellar methanol-107 GHz masers and OH-4.765 GHz masers towards Class Ⅱ sources are associated with each other and coexist towards ultracompact HⅡ regions. Therefore we suggest a new pumping mechanism-methanol masers without population inversion. It can explain the formation of 107GHz methanol masers, with the 4.765GHz OH masers acting as a driving coherent microwave field. It is argued that this mechanism is compatible with the astronomical conditions.  相似文献

All interstellar methanol maser sources can be divided into two classes. Their spectra are distinctive. In particular, the prominent Class II maser transitions, 6.7GHz and 12.2GHz lines show enhanced absorption toward Class I sources. We notice that the 6.7 and 12.2GHz methanol masers toward Class II sources are associated with each other and coexist toward ultracompact HII regions. Therefore we suggest a new pumping mechanism – methanol masers without population inversion. It can be used to explain the formation of 6.7GHz methanol masers while the 12.2GHz methanol masers are regarded as driving coherent microwave field. In this paper, we demonstrate that the new mechanism is associated with astronomical conditions and does not contradict with other mechanisms.

In this paper, we investigate the polarization property of the radiation amplified by astronomical masers in the presence of a strong magnetic field. Our model explicitly takes into account the broad-band nature of the radiation field and the interaction of the radiation with the maser transition   J = 1–0  . The amplification of different realizations of the background continuum radiation by the maser is directly simulated and the Stokes parameters of the radiation field are then obtained by averaging over the ensemble of emerging maser radiation. For isotropic pumping and partially saturated masers, we find that the maser radiation is linearly polarized in two representative cases where the magnetic field   B   makes an angle  θ= 30°  and  90°  to the maser axis. The linear polarization for maser radiation obtained in our simulations for both cases is in agreement with the results of the standard model. Furthermore, no instability during amplification is seen in our simulations. Therefore, we conclude that there is no problem with the previous numerical investigations of maser polarization in the unsaturated and partially saturated regime.  相似文献

We report the astronomical detections of several ammonia inversion transitions involving nonmetastable levels with energies as high s 1090 K above the ground state. The (J, K) = (9, 6) inversion transition shows maser-like emission in the directions of W51, NGC 7538, W49, and DR 21(OH). The NH3 (6, 3) line exhibits similar characteristics in W51 but is seen in absorption in NGC 7538. These are the first definite detections of ammonia masers in space. The intensities and narrow line widths (0.5-1.5 km s-1) for the emission features are in contrast to the previously detected broad, weak, nonmetastable lines attributed to thermal emission in these sources. Temporal variability appears to be evident in the (9, 6) emission in W49 over a 4 month period. The highly excited (J, K) = (9, 6) and (6, 3) ammonia lines are found in regions containing compact H II regions and strong infrared sources with associated H2O and OH masers; i.e., in regions of active star formation.  相似文献

We collect 3249 OH maser sources from the literature published up to April 2007, and compile a new catalog of OH masers. We look for the exciting sources of these masers and their infrared properties from IRAS and MSX data, and make a statistical study. MSX sources associated with stellar 1612 MHz OH masers are located mainly above the blackbody line; this is caused by the dust absorption of stellar envelopes, especially in the MSX A band. The mid-IR sources associated with stellar OH masers are concentrate...  相似文献

A new pumping mechanism – methanol masers without population inversion is presented in this paper. It can be used to explain the formation of a series of J 0J -1 E methanol masers, while the 21 → 30 A + methanol masers are regarded as a driving coherent micrwave field. In the new mechanism, the intensities of J 0 - J -1 E methanol masers are increased with the decreasing transition frequencies (or with rotational number J, approximately). These results agree with Slysh et al. (1995) and Slysh et al. (1999) J ≤ 5 observations for G3345.01+1.79 and W48, in which both J 0J -1 E and 21 → 30 A + methanol masers are detected coincidentally. Other astronomical conditions, such as magnetic field, 21 → 30 A + coherent radition, incoherent pumping rate by thermal radition and so on are also discussed. The new mechanism can operate as a complement to other ordinary maser pumping mechanisms for some class II methonal maser sources. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

We present single-baseline Multi-Element Radio-Linked Interferometer Network (MERLIN) measurements of excited OH 6.0-GHz masers and methanol 6.7-GHz masers for the source W3(OH). These allow us to compare the positions of individual maser spots of these two species to ∼15 mas accuracy for the first time, and to compare these with previously published positions of ground-state OH masers near 1.7 GHz and excited-state OH masers near 4.7 GHz. There is a strong association between OH 6035-MHz and 1665-MHz masers. OH and methanol have very similar distributions, but associations of individual masers are relatively rare: most methanol 6.7-GHz masers are within 100 mas of OH 6.0-GHz masers, but only four methanol masers are within 15 mas of an OH 6.0-GHz maser. There are no correspondences of either species with excited OH 4.7-GHz masers. Zeeman splitting of the 6.0-GHz OH lines indicates an ordered magnetic field ranging from 3.2 to 14.4 mG. The magnetic fields estimated from co-propagating masers such as 6035 and 1665 MHz are generally in good agreement with each other.  相似文献

Methanol masers are known to be associated with regions of massive star formation. By studying the distribution of these masers with respect to unidentified EGRET sources, one may be able to identify regions of enhanced star formation leading to either supernova remnants and/or pulsars. In this study, we test for positional coincidences between class II methanol masers and EGRET sources and determine the statistical significance of these coincidences.  相似文献
