研究目的
Identifying the degree index (cid:2) of the larger amplitude modes in the rapidly pulsating hot B subdwarf EC 01541?1409 to aid in detailed searches for viable asteroseismic models in parameter space and to test the validity of a solution a posteriori.
研究成果
The dominant 140.5 s pulsation of EC 01541?1409 was unambiguously identified as a radial mode, and the second-highest amplitude periodicity at 145.8 s was identified as an (cid:2) = 2 mode. The high-sensitivity data allowed for the inference of modal properties such as the physical values of the dimensionless radius, temperature, and surface gravity perturbations, which are usually difficult to estimate in sdB pulsators.
研究不足
The signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of the observations is a limiting factor for mode identification, particularly for low-degree ((cid:2) = 0, 1, 2) modes, which show very similar amplitude-wavelength behavior. The technique requires high-quality data to accurately determine the amplitudes and phases of individual modes.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
Time-resolved spectrophotometry was gathered with FORS/VLT for EC 01541?
2:The method exploits the (cid:
142)-dependence of the monochromatic amplitude, phase, and velocity-to-amplitude ratio of a mode as a function of wavelength, and the (cid:2)-sensitive phase lag between the ?ux perturbation and the radial velocity.
3:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
The target was the bright rapid sdB pulsator EC 01541?1409. Observations were collected at the European Organisation for Astronomical Research in the Southern Hemisphere, Chile.

3. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials: FORS/VLT was used for time-series spectrophotometry.
5:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The data analysis involved deriving observed monochromatic amplitudes and phases as a function of wavelength for the dominant periodicities, performing atmospheric analysis, and computing light curves and Fourier spectra.
6:Data Analysis Methods:
The analysis included least-squares fitting to find the amplitude and phase for sinusoids with fixed periods, and comparison of observed monochromatic amplitudes and phases with theoretical values computed from model atmospheres.
