(Detecting stellar spots through polarimetry observations of microlensing events in caustic-crossing)
Abstract:
A magnetic field over the surface of a star generates convective motions which cause a temperature contrast with the source surface temperature, so-called as a stellar spot. A stellar spot over the surface of a star makes polarization signal through two channels of Zeeman effect and breaking circular symmetry of the source surface brightness due to its temperature contrast. We assume that the source star of a microlensing event has a stellar spot. In that case, lensing can magnify the polarization signal due to the spotted source, often located at the galactic bulge, and even makes it be detected. In this talk, I first explain the characteristics of spot-induced perturbations in polarimetric microlensing during caustic-crossing of a binary lensing. Then, I estimate the efficiency for detecting these anomalies and the number of detectable signals due to stellar spots through polarimetric observations during caustic-crossing of binary lensing.
این سمینار در روز یکشنبه ۲۱ دی ماه ۱۳۹۳، ساعت ۱۵ در کلاس فیزیک ۴ در طبقهٔ اول دانشکدهٔ فیزیک برگزار خواهد شد.
