Abstract

Long Period Variables (LPVs) are stars with periods of several hundred days, representing the late, dust-enshrouded phase of stellar evolution in low to intermediate mass stars. In this paper, we present a catalog of 154,755 LPVs using near-IR lightcurves from the Palomar Gattini-IR (PGIR) survey. PGIR has been surveying the entire accessible northern sky (δ > −28°) in the J-band at a cadence of 2–3 days since 2018 September, and has produced J-band lightcurves for more than 60 million sources. We used a gradient-boosted decision tree classifier trained on a comprehensive feature set extracted from PGIR lightcurves to search for LPVs in this data set. We developed a parallelized and optimized code to extract features at a rate of ∼0.1 s per lightcurve. Our model can successfully distinguish LPVs from other stars with a true positive rate of 95%. Cross-matching with known LPVs, we find 70,369 (∼46%) new LPVs in our catalog.

利用帕洛玛-加蒂尼-红外光谱的红外光曲线自动编制长周期变星表

长周期变星（LPVs）是指周期长达几百天的恒星，代表了中低质量恒星演化后期的尘埃笼罩阶段。本文利用 Palomar Gattini-IR（PGIR）巡天观测的近红外光曲线，给出了一份包含 154755 个 LPV 的星表。自2018年9月以来，PGIR一直以2-3天一次的频率在J波段对整个可进入的北部天空（δ >-28°）进行巡天，目前已经产生了6000多万个源的J波段光曲线。我们使用梯度提升决策树分类器，在从 PGIR 光曲线提取的综合特征集上进行训练，以搜索该数据集中的 LPV。我们开发了一套并行化的优化代码，以每条光曲线 ∼ 0.1 秒的速度提取特征。我们的模型可以成功地将 LPV 与其他恒星区分开来，真阳性率高达 95%。通过与已知 LPV 的交叉匹配，我们在星表中发现了 70,369 个（46%）新的 LPV。
