13 Jan 2019 | | Abstract: | Models of magnetically driven accretion and outflows reproduce many
observational properties of T Tauri stars. For the more massive Herbig Ae/Be
stars, the corresponding picture is not well established. Nonetheless, it is
expected that accretion flows in pre-main-sequence stars are guided from the
circumstellar disk to stellar regions of high latitude along the magnetic field
lines inside a magnetosphere. Using near-infrared multi-epoch spectroscopic
data obtained with ISAAC, CRIRES, and X-shooter on the VLT, we examined
magnetospheric accretion in the two Herbig Ae stars HD101412 and HD104237.
Spectroscopic signatures in He I 10830 and Pa_gamma, two near-infrared lines
that are formed in a Herbig star’s accretion region, show temporal modulation
in both objects. For HD101412, this modulation is governed by its rotation
period, which we could recover from the data. We could show that our
spectroscopic observations can be explained within the magnetic geometry that
we established earlier from magnetic field measurements. For HD104237, we
struggled to clearly identify a rotation period. We intend to apply this method
to a larger sample of Herbig Ae/Be stars to learn more about their rotation
properties and the accretion mechanisms at work. | | Source: | arXiv, 1901.3978 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
