语境。银河球状星团(GC)中极端水平分支(EHB)恒星的双星比例比其对应物(场热亚矮星)的双星比例低一个数量级。这让人对他们的组建渠道产生严重质疑。目标。在这封信中,我用 Han 等人的双星模型解释了场 EHB 星和星团 EHB 星之间的差异。 (2002, MNRAS, 336, 449; 2003, MNRAS, 341, 669) 用于 EHB 恒星的形成。方法。使用 Han 等人的二进制群体合成代码。 (2002, 2003),我跟踪了单星爆发引起的简单星族的演化(注意 Han 等人 2002, 2003 在过去 15 Gyr 中采用了恒定的恒星形成速率来产生场 EHB 恒星),并获得了不同星族年龄的 EHB 恒星。结果。我发现 EHB 恒星中的双星比例随着恒星种群年龄的增加而减少。对于标准模拟集中的 10Gyr 恒星群,轨道周期 P < 5d 的 EHB 双星的比例类似于 2.5%。结论。 Han 等人的二元模型。 (2002, 2003) 能够解释球状星团中 EHB 双星的缺乏。我还提出,精确确定 GC 中接近的 EHB 双星的物理参数可以对共包络喷射效率产生最严格的约束。
Context. The binary fraction among extreme horizontal branch (EHB) stars in Galactic globular clusters (GCs) is an order of magnitude lower than the binary fraction among their counterparts, field hot subdwarfs. This casts serious doubt on their formation channels. Aims. In this Letter, I explain the difference between the field and the cluster EHB stars with the binary model of Han et al. (2002, MNRAS, 336, 449; 2003, MNRAS, 341, 669) for the formation of EHB stars. Methods. With the binary population synthesis code of Han et al. (2002, 2003), I follow the evolution of simple stellar populations resulting from single star bursts (note that Han et al. 2002, 2003, adopted a constant star formation rate over the last 15 Gyr for the production of field EHB stars), and obtain EHB stars at different stellar population ages. Results. I found that the binary fraction among EHB stars decreases with the stellar population age. The fraction of EHB binaries with orbital periods P < 5d is similar to 2.5% for a stellar population of 10Gyr from the standard simulation set. Conclusions. The binary model of Han et al. (2002, 2003) is able to explain the lack of EHB binaries in globular clusters. I also propose that the precise determination of the physical parameters of close EHB binaries in GCs can lead to the strictest constraint on common-envelope ejection efficiency.
