论文摘要

我们计算由于气体加热和太阳辐射加热的碰撞加热而导致的亚相关物体的表面温度和所得的亮度。可以通过即将到来的{\ it James Webb Space望远镜}检测到$ \ gtrsim 100 $ 100 $和$ \ gtrsim 0.1c $的速度的热发射。因此,未来的调查可能会为大量快速移动的星际对象或航天器设定有趣的限制。

We calculate the surface temperature and the resulting brightness of sub-relativistic objects moving through the Solar system due to collisional heating by gas and radiative heating by solar radiation. The thermal emission from objects of size $\gtrsim 100$ m and speed of $\gtrsim 0.1c$, can be detected by the upcoming {\it James Webb Space Telescope} out to a distance of $\sim 100$ au. Future surveys could therefore set interesting limits on the abundance of fast-moving interstellar objects or spacecraft.
