بدين 1، هي مجرة قزمة كروية تقع في كوكبة الطاووس. تقع المجرة وراء العنقود المغلق NGC 6752، وتبعد عن الأرض حوالي 28.38 مليون سنة ضوئية. بدين 1 هي أول المجرات القديمة المعروفة، والتي تشكلت منذ حوالي 10013 مليون سنة مضت، وتعتبر من أكثر الكواكب القزمة انعزالااً، وتقع على بعد 2.12 مليون سنة ضوئية تقريباً من NGC 6744، أقرب جيرانها الذين قد يكونا مرتبطين فيزيائياً. على هذا النحو، اعتبرها علماء الفلك "حفرية" من الكون المبكر. اكتشفت المجرة بالصدفة بواسطة الفلكي الإيطالي لويجي بدين، الذي كان يدرس الأقزام البيضاء في NGC 6752 باستخدام تلسكوب هبل الفضائي في سبتمبر 2018؛ أُعلن عن الاكتشاف في ورقة نُشرت في أواخر يناير 2019.

التسمية

بدين 1، تُنطق /ˈbɛˌdiŋ/،[4] أسماها فريق اكتشافها على اسم قائدهم، لويجي بدين،[5][6] وهو باحث في مرصد تابع للمعهد الوطني للفيزياء الفلكية في پادوا، إيطاليا.[6][7] ويشتهر بالمكتشف الأوحد للمجرة.[8] اختابر بدين والفريق اختار الفريق تجنب إعطاء المجرة "هوية مجهولة مبنية على إحداثياتها".[9]


الخصائص

بدين 1 هي مجرة قزمة كروية معزولة،[9][10][11] تحمل نفس خصائص المجرتين القزمتين KKR 25 وتوكانا.[10] يقدر حجمها بحوالي 840 في 340 فرسخ، أو 2.700 في 1.100 سنة ضوئية، أي خمس حجم سحابة ماجلان الكبرى.[12] تحتوي المجرة على نجوم عمالقة حمراء منخفضة اللمعان،[13][14] ويبلغ قطر استضاائتها ضعف قطر استضاءة مجرة درب التبانة تقريباً،[8][15] بقدر مطلق −9.76.[16] يعتقد أن مجرة بدين 1 قد تشكلت منذ حوالي 10-13 بليون سنة، دون تشكل أي نجوم،[13][17][18] مما يجعلها من أقدم المجرات المعروفة.[18][19] كما يحتمل أن تكون بدين 1 أكثر المجرات القزمة انعزالاً،[18] إذ تبعد عن الأرض بعد 8.7 م.فرسخ تقريباً، أو حوالي 28.38 مليون سنة ضوئية، و650 كيلو-فرسخ على الأقل، أو 2.12 مليون سنة ضوئية عن أقرب جيرانها، المجرة الحلزونية المتوسطة NGC 6744؛[ب] وتفصل نفس المسافة بين مجرة درب التبانة ومجرة أندرومدا.[21] ويعتقد بارتباطها فيزيائياً مع NGC 6744، على الرغم من المسافة التي تفصل بينهما.[20] عمرها، انعزالها، وعدم تفاعلها مع المجرات الأخرى، أدى إلى حملها اعتبارها "أحفورة" من الكون المبكر.[19][11]

تقع بدين 1 في كوكبة الطاووس،[9] عند المطلع المستقيم 19h 10m 45.41s وميل -59° 55′ 04.32″.[1] تقع المجرة وراء مجموعة من النجوم الخلفية مجهولة الاسم ضمن العنقود المغلق NGC 6752.[2][22] تقدر أبعاد المجرة 20 في 8 ثانية قوسية من نقطة رصدها على الأرض، ويبلغ قدرها الظاهري 19.94،[16][23] على الرغم من انخفاض ملحوظ في رؤييتها بسبب NGC 6752، خامس أكثر العناقيد المغلقة لمعاناً في السماء بقدر ظاهري 5.4.[24] اكتشف بدين 1 بالصدفة بواسطة فريق كان يبحث عن أقزام بيضاء في عنقود نجمي في محاولة للوقوف على تقدير أفضل لعمرها.[6][15][22]

  1. ^ This photograph was taken in a three-day exposure of the Wide Field Channel (WFC) of the Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) aboard Hubble between 9-13 September 2018.[1] Bedin I is visible behind a group of stars at the far left of the image as a cluster of distant points of light; it is partly cut-off by the image's 1×1 arcminute field of view.[2][3]
  2. ^ Bedin I is ∼650 kiloparsecs from NGC 6744 along the plane of the sky. More accurate measurements to judge its horizontal distance, and thus its true distance from NGC 6744, are needed.[20]
