摘要
MWC 758 是一颗承载着螺旋状原行星盘的年轻恒星。螺旋很可能是由伴星驱动的,之前已经确定了两个候选伴星--一个位于南旋臂末端的 ∼0.″6处,另一个位于缺口内部的 ∼0.″1处。利用JWST/NIRCam,我们提供了新的圆盘图像,并对位于∼1″外部的行星进行了约束。我们探测到了双臂螺旋盘、一颗已知背景恒星和一个空间解析背景星系,但没有发现明显的伴星。尽管如此,我们的观测结果还是对伴星做出了新的限制,即在∼150 au处的∼2 M Jup和在∼600 au处的∼0.5 M Jup。由于 JWST 史无前例的灵敏度和目标的年轻化,这些都是迄今为止通过直接成像观测获得的最深的质量探测极限,并为了解该系统的动力学性质提供了新的视角。
JWST/NIRCam Imaging of Young Stellar Objects. I. Constraints on Planets Exterior to the Spiral Disk Around MWC 758
MWC 758 is a young star hosting a spiral protoplanetary disk. The spirals are likely companion-driven, and two previously identified candidate companions have been identified—one at the end the Southern spiral arm at ∼0.″6, and one interior to the gap at ∼0.″1. With JWST/NIRCam, we provide new images of the disk and constraints on planets exterior to ∼1″. We detect the two-armed spiral disk, a known background star, and a spatially resolved background galaxy, but no clear companions. The candidates that have been reported are at separations that are not probed by our data with sensitivity sufficient to detect them−nevertheless, these observations place new limits on companions down to ∼2 M
Jup at ∼150 au and ∼0.5 M
Jup at ≳600 au. Owing to the unprecedented sensitivity of JWST and youth of the target, these are among the deepest mass-detection limits yet obtained through direct imaging observations, and provide new insights into the system’s dynamical nature.
