论文摘要
潮汐倾斜的脉动器是一种在近距离二进制系统中的新型振荡恒星,由于其同伴引起的潮汐变形,它们在轨道平面上具有其脉动轴。我们根据发现的前三名代表来描述这组恒星,并说明了用于分析的基本方法。它们对天体物理研究的价值植根于二元星和阿特介异性分析的优势的结合。可以实现脉冲模式的识别,因为在整个轨道周期中,振荡在近360度的方面可见。提出了一个特别有趣的系统的说明性案例。
The tidally tilted pulsators are a new type of oscillating star in close binary systems that have their pulsation axis in the orbital plane because of the tidal distortion caused by their companion. We describe this group of stars on the basis of the first three representatives discovered and illustrate the basic methods used for their analysis. Their value for astrophysical study is rooted in the combination of the strengths of binary star and asteroseismic analyses; pulsational mode identifications can be achieved because the oscillations are visible over nearly 360 degrees of aspect throughout the orbital cycle. An illustrative case of a particularly interesting system is presented.
