射电类星体演化的实质是指天体在宇宙时标上的变化,而天体的宇宙时标主要与宇宙学红移有关[1]。在天体演化的过程中,各个阶段的宇宙学红移不同,因此可以根据宇宙学红移确定天体的演化。 射电类星体按照射电辐射强度的不同可以分为射电噪类星体(Radio Loud Quasars, RLQ)和射电宁静类星体(Radio Quiet Quasars, RQQ)[2],一般用射电噪度(Radio Loudness)等于10来区分射电宁静和射电噪类星体;射电噪度大于10称为射电噪类星体;小于10称为射电宁静类星体[3]。然而到底是指向效应还是内秉的演化结果造成了射电宁静和射电噪类星体本质的不同,目前还在研究中,这也是构造活动星系核统一结构和演化模型时遇到的最大问题之一。 Punsly(1996)和Park(1988)模型中提出了类星体到Seyfert星系的演化[4-5],但这一演化一直没有得到很好的验证。核占优型射电类星体和瓣占优型射电类星体之间是否存在演化关系对射电喷流的研究也具有重要意义。基于这些研究背景,收集和计算了许多射电宁静类星体、射电噪类星体和Seyfert星系的重要参数,做出了这些参数和红移的关系图,利用Logistic非线性回归分析的方法对射电类星体的演化进行拟合,得出相应的演化曲线。

2 统计分析和演化模拟

2.1 红移分布图

图1为Seyfert星系、射电宁静类星体、射电噪类星体红移的分布图,从图1可以得出:Seyfert星系的红移分布在0~0.07的范围;射电宁静类星体的红移分布在0.07~0.3的范围;射电噪类星体的红移分布在0.3~2.4的范围;红移在0.1~0.2的范围内有10个射电噪类星体和射电宁静类星体交叉。

2.2 红移和热光度的关系

图2是红移对热光度的关系图,利用Logistic非线性回归[15-19]的方法分析了射电类星体和Seyfert星系的红移和热光度的相关性,得到了相应的演化曲线,并将Logistic非线性回归分析的结果记录在表4中。从图2和表4可以得出:Logistic非线性回归曲线很好地拟合出红移对热光度关系的演化曲线;射电噪类星体主要分布在演化曲线的右上部分,随着演化的进行,热光度和红移慢慢变小,射电噪类星体演化为射电宁静类星体,当演化进行到一定阶段,射电类星体过渡到Seyfert星系。

2.3 红移和黑洞质量的关系

图3是红移对黑洞质量的关系图,利用Logistic非线性回归的方法分析了红移对黑洞质量的关系,拟合出相应的演化曲线,并将回归分析的结果记录在表4中,从图2和图3的对比以及表4的结果可以得出红移对热光度与红移对黑洞质量得到的结果是一致的。

2.4 红移和5 GHz射电光度的关系

图4是红移对5 GHz射电光度的关系图,利用Logistic非线性回归的方法分析了红移对5 GHz射电光度的关系,并将结果记录在表4中。从表4可以得到Logistic非线性回归很好地拟合出射电噪类星体到射电宁静类星体的演化曲线。

3 结论和讨论

通过对射电类星体的红移和热光度、黑洞质量、5 GHz射电光度、吸积率的研究得到:(1)射电噪类星体→射电宁静类星体→Seyfert星系的演化,Marecki(2011)也从观测结果支持射电噪类星体→射电宁静类星体的演化[21],这就验证了射电噪类星体和射电宁静类星体之间本质的不同不是由于指向效应而是一种演化的结果,同时也验证了Punsly(1996)和Park(1988)模型中提出的类星体→Seyfert星系的演化,这可能的解释是具有高红移、高光度、高吸积率的射电噪类星体可能出现在宇宙的早期,随着演化的进行,红移、光度、吸积率慢慢变小,射电噪类星体演化为射电宁静类星体,当演化到一定阶段,吸积的能量不能再维持其吸积过程时,射电类星体开始衰退,当红移达到一定值时,射电类星体过渡到Seyfert星系;(2)核占优型射电类星体和瓣占优型射电类星体的红移与核主导参数R之间没有相关性,这就说明核占优型射电类星体和瓣占优型射电类星体没有明显随红移进行演化。从图6可以得到在LogR>1的射电类星体主要是核占优型类星体,在-0.5
