We study the distribution and transport of angular momentum in a self-gravitating accretion disk formed during the collapse of a rotating gas cloud. Using the surface density for the low-viscosity models and minimum-mass models presented by Cassen and Summers, Poisson's equation is solved explicitly to determine the effects of self-gravitation of the protostellar disk. Analytic expressions for the angular momentum of the central star and other relevant quantities of interest during the formation stage are presented.Paper presented at the IAU Third Asian-Pacific Regional Meeting, held in Kyoto, Japan, between 30 September–6 October, 1984.On leave from the City College of the City University of New York, U.S.A.  相似文献

The gravitational collapse of molecular clouds or cloud cores is expected to lead to the formation of stars that begin their lives in a state of rapid rotation. It is known that, in at least some specific cases, rapidly rotating, slf-gravitating bodies are subject to instabilities that cause them to assume ellipsoidal shapes. In this paper we investigate the consequences of such instabilities on the angular momentum evolution of a star in the process of formation from a collapsing cloud, and surrounded by a protostellar disk, with a view toward applications to the formation of the Solar System. We use a specific model of star formation to demonstrate the possibility that such a star would become unstable, that the resulting distortion of the star would generate spiral density waves in the circumstellar disk, and that the torque associated with these waves would regulate the angular momentum of the star as it feeds angular momentum to the disk. We conclude that the angular momentum so transported to the disk would not spread the disk to, say, Solar System dimensions, by the action of the spiral density waves alone. However, a viscous disk could effectively extract stellar angular momentum and attain Solar System size. Our results also indicate that viscous disks could feed mass and angular momentum to a growing protostar in such a manner that distortions of the star would occur before gravitational torques could balance the influx of angular momentum. In other situations (in which the viscosity was small), a gap could be cleared between the disk and star.  相似文献

The theory of viscous accretion disks developed by Lynden-Bell and Pringle has been applied to the evolution of the primitive solar nebula. The additional physical input needed to determine the structure of the disk is described. A series of calculations was carried out using a steady flow approximation to explore the effects on the disk properties of variations in such parameters as the angular momentum and accretion rate of the infalling material from a collapsing interstellar cloud fragment. The more detailed evolutionary calculations involved five cases with various combinations of parameters. It was concluded that the late stages of evolution of the disks would be dominated by the effects of mass loss from the expansion of a hot disk corona into space, and the effects of this were included in the evolutionary calculations. A new theory of comet formation is formulated upon these results. The most important result is the conclusion, which appears to be inescapable, that the primitive solar accretion disk was repeatedly unstable against axisymmetric perturbations, in which rings would form and collapse upon themselves, with the subsequent formation of giant gaseous protoplanets.  相似文献

The problem of angular-momentum and mass transport in the disk is discussed and the disk viscosity is estimated. The evolution of the gas-dust protoplanetary disk at the stage of its formation inside the protostellar (protosolar) accretion envelope is considered. The conditions for the radial growth of the disk are estimated. For the subsequent period, when the central star (young Sun) is in the T Tauri phase, the temporal variations of the radius, mass, and the surface density of the disk, as well as the total mass flux from the disk onto the star (Sun), i.e., the mass accretion rate, are evaluated. The constraints on the initial value of the angular momentum of the protoplanetary circumsolar disk (that is, on the angular momentum of the protosolar cloud) are discussed with due regard for cosmochemical data.Translated from Astronomicheskii Vestnik, Vol. 38, No. 6, 2004, pp. 559–576.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2004 by Makalkin.  相似文献

The jets observed to emanate from many compact accreting objects may arise from the twisting of a magnetic field threading a differentially rotating accretion disk which acts to magnetically extract angular momentum and energy from the disk. Two main regimes have been discussed, hydromagnetic jets, which have a significant mass flux and have energy and angular momentum carried by both matter and electromagnetic field and, Poynting jets, where the mass flux is small and energy and angular momentum are carried predominantly by the electromagnetic field. Here, we describe recent theoretical work on the formation of relativistic Poynting jets from magnetized accretion disks. Further, we describe new relativistic, fully electromagnetic, particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations of the formation of jets from accretion disks. Analog Z-pinch experiments may help to understand the origin of astrophysical jets.  相似文献

We present results from a survey observation of circumstellar disks around protostellar sources associated with the Taurus molecular cloud. Our result shows that the 98 GHz continuum emission tends to be weaker for embedded sources than for visible T Tauri stars, which is consistent with our previous interpretation of disk formation. Direct observations of the formation of a centrifugally supported viscous accretion disk around HL Tau is discussed.  相似文献

It is believed that protostellar accretion disks are formed from nearly ballistic infall of molecular matter in rotating core collapse. Collisions of this infalling matter leads to formation of strong supersonic shocks, which if they cool rapidly, result in accumulation of that material in a thin structure in the equatorial plane. Here, we investigate the relaxation time of the protostellar accretion post‐shock gas using the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH). For this purpose, a one‐dimensional head‐on collision of two molecular sheets is considered, and the time evolution of the temperature and density of the post‐shock region simulated. The results show that in strong supersonic shocks, the temperature of the post‐shock gas quickly increases proportional to square of the Mach number, and then gradually decreases according to the cooling processes. Using a suitable cooling function shows that in appropriate time‐scale, the center of the collision, which is at the equatorial plane of the core, is converted to a thin dense molecular disk, together with atomic and ionized gases around it. This structure for accretion disks may justify the suitable conditions for grain growth and formation of proto‐planetary entities (© 2011 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)  相似文献

Star formation is thought to be triggered by gravitational collapse of the dense cores of molecular clouds. Angular momentum conservation during the collapse results in the progressive increase of the centrifugal force, which eventually halts the inflow of material and leads to the development of a central mass surrounded by a disc. In the presence of an angular momentum transport mechanism, mass accretion onto the central object proceeds through this disc, and it is believed that this is how stars typically gain most of their mass. However, the mechanisms responsible for this transport of angular momentum are not well understood. Although the gravitational field of a companion star or even gravitational instabilities (particularly in massive discs) may play a role, the most general mechanisms are turbulence viscosity driven by the magnetorotational instability (MRI), and outflows accelerated centrifugally from the surfaces of the disc. Both processes are powered by the action of magnetic fields and are, in turn, likely to strongly affect the structure, dynamics, evolutionary path and planet-forming capabilities of their host discs. The weak ionisation of protostellar discs, however, may prevent the magnetic field from effectively coupling to the gas and shear and driving these processes. Here I examine the viability and properties of these magnetically-driven processes in protostellar discs. The results indicate that, despite the weak ionisation, the magnetic field is able to couple to the gas and shear for fluid conditions thought to be satisfied over a wide range of radii in these discs.  相似文献

I present a scenario by which an accretion flow with alternating angular momentum on to a newly born neutron star in a core collapse supernova(CCSN) efficiently amplifies magnetic fields and by that launches jets. The accretion flow of a collapsing core on to the newly born neutron star suffers spiral standing accretion shock instability(SASI). This instability leads to a stochastically variable angular momentum of the accreted gas, which in turn forms an accretion flow with alternating directions of the angular momentum, and hence alternating shear, at any given time. I study the shear in this alternating-shear sub-Keplerian inflow in published simulations, and present a new comparison with Keplerian accretion disks. From that comparison I argue that it might be as efficient as Keplerian accretion disks in amplifying magnetic fields by a dynamo. I suggest that although the average specific angular momentum of the accretion flow is small,namely, sub-Keplerian, this alternating-shear accretion flow can launch jets with varying directions, namely,jittering jets. Neutrino heating is an important ingredient in further energizing the jets. The jittering jets locally revive the stalled accretion shock in the momentarily polar directions, and by that they explode the star. I repeat again my call for a paradigm shift from a neutrino-driven explosion of CCSNe to a jet-driven explosion mechanism that is aided by neutrino heating.  相似文献

We present three-dimensional numerical simulations on binary formation through fragmentation. The simulations follow gravitational collapse of a molecular cloud core up to growth of the first core by accretion. At the initial stage, the gravity is only slightly dominant over the gas pressure. We made various models by changing initial velocity distribution (rotation speed, rotation law, and bar-mode perturbation). The cloud fragments whenever the cloud rotates sufficiently slowly to allow collapse but faster enough to form a disk before first-core formation. The latter condition is equivalent to Ω0 t ff ? 0.05, where Ω0 and t ff f denote the initial central angular velocity and the freefall time measured from the central density, and the condition is independent of the initial rotation law and bar-mode perturbation. Fragmentation is classified into six types. When the initial cloud rotates rigidly the cloud collapses to form a adiabatic disk supported by rotation. When the bar-mode perturbation is very minor, the disk deforms to a rotating bar, and the bar fragments. Otherwise, the adiabatic disk evolves into a central core surrounded by a circumstellar disk, and the the circumstellar disk fragments. When the initial cloud rotates differentially, the cloud deforms to a ring or bar in the isothermal collapse phase. The ring fragments into free or more cores, while the bar fragments into only two cores. In the latter case, the core merges due to low orbital angular momentum and new satellite cores form in the later stages.  相似文献

粘滞性问题一直是吸积盘理论中十分重要而又难以解决的一个基本理论问题.最近,Balbus和Hawley建议在磁化吸积盘中存在一种局域的磁流体剪切不稳定性机制,它能导致磁化吸积盘中有效的角动量转移,从而可以部分地解决磁化吸积盘中的粘滞性问题.但是Balbus-Hawley机制对非磁化吸积盘仍然是无效的.在本文中,我们研究了一种非磁化吸积盘模型,其中粘滞性机制起源于等离子体朗缪尔波湍动应力,并与标准a吸积盘模型中起源于流体或磁流体湍流的雷诺应力的粘滞性机制进行了比较.结果表明等离子体朗缪尔波湍动应力不仅对非磁化吸积盘中粘滞性的起源有重要的贡献,而且有可能是比流体湍流或磁流体湍流的雷诺应力更加有效的粘滞性起源的物理机制.  相似文献

Subsequent to Paper I, the evolution and fragmentation of a rotating magnetized cloud are studied with use of three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic nested grid simulations. After the isothermal runaway collapse, an adiabatic gas forms a protostellar first core at the centre of the cloud. When the isothermal gas is stable for fragmentation in a contracting disc, the adiabatic core often breaks into several fragments. Conditions for fragmentation and binary formation are studied. All the cores which show fragmentation are geometrically thin, as the diameter-to-thickness ratio is larger than 3. Two patterns of fragmentation are found. (1) When a thin disc is supported by centrifugal force, the disc fragments into a ring configuration (ring fragmentation). This is realized in a rapidly rotating adiabatic core as  Ω > 0.2τ−1ff  , where Ω and  τff  represent the angular rotation speed and the free-fall time of the core, respectively. (2) On the other hand, the disc is deformed to an elongated bar in the isothermal stage for a strongly magnetized or rapidly rotating cloud. The bar breaks into 2–4 fragments (bar fragmentation). Even if a disc is thin, the disc dominated by the magnetic force or thermal pressure is stable and forms a single compact body. In either ring or bar fragmentation mode, the fragments contract and a pair of outflows is ejected from the vicinities of the compact cores. The orbital angular momentum is larger than the spin angular momentum in the ring fragmentation. On the other hand, fragments often quickly merge in the bar fragmentation, since the orbital angular momentum is smaller than the spin angular momentum in this case. Comparison with observations is also shown.  相似文献

We model the growth of Jupiter via core nucleated accretion, applying constraints from hydrodynamical processes that result from the disk-planet interaction. We compute the planet's internal structure using a well tested planetary formation code that is based upon a Henyey-type stellar evolution code. The planet's interactions with the protoplanetary disk are calculated using 3-D hydrodynamic simulations. Previous models of Jupiter's growth have taken the radius of the planet to be approximately one Hill sphere radius, RH. However, 3-D hydrodynamic simulations show that only gas within ∼0.25RH remains bound to the planet, with the more distant gas eventually participating in the shear flow of the protoplanetary disk. Therefore in our new simulations, the planet's outer boundary is placed at the location where gas has the thermal energy to reach the portion of the flow not bound to the planet. We find that the smaller radius increases the time required for planetary growth by ∼5%. Thermal pressure limits the rate at which a planet less than a few dozen times as massive as Earth can accumulate gas from the protoplanetary disk, whereas hydrodynamics regulates the growth rate for more massive planets. Within a moderately viscous disk, the accretion rate peaks when the planet's mass is about equal to the mass of Saturn. In a less viscous disk hydrodynamical limits to accretion are smaller, and the accretion rate peaks at lower mass. Observations suggest that the typical lifetime of massive disks around young stellar objects is ∼3 Myr. To account for the dissipation of such disks, we perform some of our simulations of Jupiter's growth within a disk whose surface gas density decreases on this timescale. In all of the cases that we simulate, the planet's effective radiating temperature rises to well above 1000 K soon after hydrodynamic limits begin to control the rate of gas accretion and the planet's distended envelope begins to contract. According to our simulations, proto-Jupiter's distended and thermally-supported envelope was too small to capture the planet's current retinue of irregular satellites as advocated by Pollack et al. [Pollack, J.B., Burns, J.A., Tauber, M.E., 1979. Icarus 37, 587-611].  相似文献

Theoretical models of star formation from the collapse of molecular cloud cores have been evolving in complexity for many years. This work describes the evolution of models from the nonrotating, nonmagnetized singular isothermal sphere to rotating, magnetized singular isothermal toroids. Four members of the same family are studied–the four combinations of nonrotation/rotation and nonmagnetization/magnetization. It is found that although rotation alone can hinder collapse to a pointmass, addition of braking from a magnetic field can transport away much of the angular momentum upward in a low-velocity outflow during the collapse phase. For all magnetized cases, accretion proceeds at a constant rate similar to that of the isothermal sphere.  相似文献

Broad Absorption Lines (BALs) prove the existence of a high velocity outflowing gas with metallicities larger than solar in the central few parsecs of high redshift quasars. At the same distance from the black hole, accretion disks in quasars and Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) are locally gravitationally unstable, and clumps must form with a size of the order of the scale height of the disk. This is hardly a coincidence, and we have tried to link these two facts. We have assumed that the unstable clumps give rise to protostars, which become massive stars after a rapid stage of accretion, and explode as supernovae, producing strong outflows perpendicular to the disk and inducing outward transfer of angular momentum in the plane of the disk. As a consequence a self-regulated disk made of gas and stars where supernovae sustain the inflow mass rate required by the AGN is a viable solution in this region of the disk. This model could explain the BALs, and could also account for a pregalactic enrichment of the intergalactic medium and of the Galaxy, if massive black holes formed early in the Universe. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

Modern models of the formation of the regular satellites of giant planets, constructed with consideration for their structure and composition suggest that this process lasted for a considerable period of time (0.1–1 Myr) and developed in gas-dust circumplanetary disks at the final stage of giant planet formation. The parameters of protosatellite disks (e.g., the radial distribution of surface density and temperature) serve as important initial conditions for such models. Therefore, the development of protosatellite disk models that take into account currently known cosmochemical and physical restrictions remains a pressing problem. It is this problem that is solved in the paper. New models of the accretion disks of Jupiter and Saturn were constructed with consideration for the disk heating by viscous dissipation of turbulent motions, by accretion of material from the surrounding region of the solar nebula, and by radiation from the central planets. The influence of a set of input model parameters (the total rate of mass infall onto the disk, the turbulent viscosity and opacity of disk material, and the centrifugal radius of the disk) on thermal conditions in the accretion disks was studied. The dependence of opacity on temperature and the abundance and size of solid particles present in the disk was taken into account. Those constructed models that satisfy the existing constraints limit the probable values of input parameters (primarily rates of mass infall onto the disks of Jupiter and Saturn at the stage of regular satellite formation and, to a lesser extent, the disk opacities). Constraints on the location of the regions of formation of the major satellites of Jupiter and Saturn are suggested based on the constructed models and simple analytical estimates concerning the formation of satellites in the accretion disks. It is shown that Callisto and Titan could hardly be formed at significantly greater distances from their planets.  相似文献

I examine the question of purely accreting protostars, and set limits to the breakout time of a protostellar wind within the accretion flow forming the new star. Hypothesizing a wind launched from the protostellar surface, three temporal phases are derived: a crushed wind, a trapped wind, and an escaping wind. In the current model, evolution from one phase to the next is a consequence of the growing anisotropy of the infalling flow, a natural outcome of the collapse of a rotating cloud core. During the crushed wind phase, infall overcomes the wind at all solid angles, and the accretion directly strikes the protostellar surface. The trapped phase consists of a wind sufficiently strong to push material back from the stellar surface, but too weak to carry the heavy, shocked and swept-up infall out of the star's gravitational potential. Unless the wind turns on impulsively, a significant fraction of the pre-breakout life of the protostar may be spent in this trapped wind phase in which gas is launched from the protostar but is pulled back, crashing onto the protostellar and disk surfaces. It may be that some `starless cores' contain as-yet undetected, very young accreting protostars, and that episodic luminosity fluctuations associated with this trapped wind could be observed.  相似文献

The stability of the innermost disk region orbiting a Kerr black hole is investigated for geometrically thin accretion disks. The infalling matter transports mass and angular momentum into the Kerr hole. This affects the inner disk boundary and leads to runaway instabilities in some cases.  相似文献
