Infrared dust arcs around the stars: I. effect of the radiation pressure
arXiv:1904.07760 · doi:10.1093/mnras/stz1105
Abstract
In this paper we consider the distribution of the interstellar dust in the vicinity of the star under an influence of the stellar gravitation and radiation pressure. This study is applicable to the stars with relatively weak stellar wind and strong radiation, when the stellar radiation swept out the interstellar dust much further from the star than the position of the bow shock created by an interaction of the stellar and interstellar plasma flows. In this case the number density of dust for a certain dust grains radius can be calculated analytically based on the classical `cold model'. The dust density distribution for the mixture of dust grains with different radii is calculated. We also calculated intensity maps of the thermal infrared emission at 24~m from dust due to heating by the stellar radiation. It is shown that the obtained maps of the infrared emission extremely depends on the model parameters: material of dust grains, dust size distribution assumed in the interstellar medium, the approach used to calculate the dust temperature. The bright distinct arc at the intensity maps is seen for graphite dust grains and almost disappears for silicates. Absolute values of intensity in the case of graphite are several order of magnitudes larger than for silicates due to more intensive heating of graphite. Possible application of the presented theory is proposed as an algorithm for analysis of the observational images of the infrared arc around the star.
