Axisymmetric magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations have been made of the formation of jets from a Keplerian disk threaded by a magnetic field. The disk is treated as a boundary condition, where matter with high specific entropy is ejected with a Keplerian azimuthal speed and a poloidal speed less than the slow magnetosonic velocity, and where boundary conditions on the magnetic fields correspond to a highly conducting disk. Initially, the space above the disk, the corona, is filled with high specific entropy plasma in the thermal equilibrium in the gravitational field of the central object. The initial magnetic field is poloidal and is represented by the superposition of the fields of monopoles located below the plane of the disk.The rotation of the disk twists the initial poloidal magnetic field lines, and this twist propagates into the corona pushing matter into jet-like outflow in a cylindrical region. After the first switch-on wave, which originates during the first rotation period of the inner radius of the disk, the matter outflowing from the disk starts to flow and accelerate in thez-direction owing to both the magnetic and pressure gradient forces. The flow accelerates through the slow magnetosonic and Alfvén surfaces and at larger distances through the fast magnetosonic surface. The flow velocity of the jet is approximately parallel to thez-axis, with the collimation mainly a result of the pinching force of the toroidal magnetic field. The energy flux of the flow increases with increasing magnetic field strength on the disk. Some of the cases studied have been run for long times, 60 rotation periods of the inner radius of the disk, and show indications of approaching a stationary state.  相似文献

The tidal force effects of a spherical galaxy passing head-on through a disk galaxy have been studied at various regions of the disk galaxy and for various orientations of the disk galaxy with respect to the direction of relative motion of the two galaxies. The density distribution of the disk galaxy is taken to be, (r)=ce–4r/R , where c is the central density andR is the radius of the disk. The density distribution of the spherical galaxy is taken to be that of a oolytrope of indexn=4. It is found that as a result of the collision, through the central parts and the outer parts of the disk galaxy remain intact, the region in between these two regions disrupts. Thus a ring galaxy with a nucleus embedded in the ring-i.e., a ring galaxy of the RN-type, is formed.  相似文献

The exact solutions for the equilibrium of rotating gaseous disk with poloidal magnetic field are obtained. The stability of the disk with respect to uniform expansion and contraction is investigated by means of the variational principle. It is shown that if the equilibrium is determined by gravitational and magnetic forces only, the disk is in neutral equilibrium with respect to perturbations of the form r=r. The instability to short-waves perturbations is studied by the quasi-classical method. The analysis shows that if the magnetic field isH>2G, where is the surface density, then these perturbations are stabilized. The configurations of the electrical field induced by the rotation of magnetized disk are found. In conclusion, the questions of the evolution of the disk are discussed in connection with the quasar model when pulsar-like radiation is taken into account.  相似文献

The gravitational instability of a nonrotating isothermal gaseous disk permeated by a uniform frozen-in magnetic field is investigated using a fourth-order perturbation technique. From the results it is found that the disk is stable whenn/B 0 < (4/33 G)–1/2, wheren andB are the column density of the disk and unperturbed magnetic field, respectively, andG is the gravitational constant. The disk is gravitationally unstable only whenn/B 0 > (4/33 G)–1/2.  相似文献

The tidal force effects of a spherical galaxy passing head-on through a disk galaxy have been studied for various orientations of the disk galaxy with respect to the direction of relative motion of the two galaxies. The density distribution of the spherical galaxy is taken to be that of a polytrope of indexn=4 and that of the disk galaxy is taken to be, (r)=ce–4r/R, where c is the central density andR the radius of the disk. It is found that the disruptive effects due to the tidal force are minimum when the plane of the disk lies along the direction of relative motion, but are maximum when the plane of the disk is slightly inclined to this direction (about 15°). The tidal force effects at the median radius have also been computed. The tadal force effects are much higher in the interior region of the disk.  相似文献

In this paper we present multicolor images of the Beta Pictoris disk, obtained with a new Coronograph, built at STScI, for ESO's New Technology Telescope. These B, V, and R observations probe the Beta Pictoris circumstellar disk in to a distance of 35 AU (2) from the central star. We derive surface brightness profiles for the disk and discuss the results in the context of two-component disk models (e.g. Backmanet al. 1992), which are based on fits to available optical and infrared data for Beta Pictoris's disk. These models generally imply that the disk is composed of 1) an outer disk extending from 100–1000 AU, with a midplane particle density decreasing as n(r) r–3, 2) a transition region extending from 10–100 AU with lower density and either smaller grains or a less steep spatial gradient than the outer component, 3) an innermost clear zone with even lower density.  相似文献

The inner regions of the circumstellar disk around Pictoris might be dust-free due to a possible planet which may have cleared up dust particles. We present a new observational technique based on the use of an anti-blooming CCD in order to directly image this zone. The structure of the disk is revealed down to 2 arcsec from the star (30 AU). We show that the Pic disk brightness is neutral inV, R, andI C , but drops down when going inward inB, possibly related to a change in the dust composition. Also, a slight disk asymmetry is present but inverted from the outer to the inner zones.Paper presented at the Conference onPlanetary Systems: Formation, Evolution, and Detection held 7–10 December, 1992 at CalTech, Pasadena, California, U.S.A.  相似文献

The disk dynamo     
The simplest dynamo in a thin disk is analysed. It the antisymmetric helicity function (z) (wherez is a coordinate perpendicular to the disk plane) is smooth and limited, then the conditions for generating a magnetic field and the symmetry of the resulting solutions depend only on the form of at the segment (0,h) — whereh is the half-thickness of the disk — and the value of the dimensionless dynamo numberD. When (z) does not change its sign at this segment andD>D c (the critical dynamo number), the excitation of non-oscillating even (quadrupole) and oscillating odd (dipole) fields are possible. When (z) changes its sign at the segment indicated, non-oscillating odd magnetic fields can also be excited.The old exact solutions of the disk dynamo are studied and new ones are found. The results can be of importance when applied to the problem of the generation of a magnetic field in galactic and turbulent disks appearing around some X-ray sources.  相似文献

Numerical experiments undertaken to investigate the longevity and behavior of dark-lane elliptical galaxies are described. This is dynamically the same problem as a disk galaxy in a massive halo. Spiral galaxies are disks from a dynamical point of view. A disk of particles embedded in a self-consistent galaxy provides the basic model used for the experiments. This model is applicable to ordinary disk galaxies if the disk is interpreted as the visible galaxy and the galaxy is interpreted as the massive halo thought to be present around disk galaxies. Fully three-dimensional fully self-consistentn-body computer programs that can handle 100,000 particles are used for the experiments. The background galaxy is oblate, and the disk is inclined to the axis of the oblate galaxy, so the disk precesses differentially to produce a warp. A surprising result is that the galaxy center shifted, leaving the disk center orbiting around the galaxy center. This produces interesting phenomena reminiscent of observations in the region of the Galactic center.  相似文献

One-armedglobal oscillations in a non-selfgravitating polytropic disk rotating around a star are investigated. The unperturbed disk is axisymmetric, geometrically thin, and extends infinitely in the radial direction keeping its thickness constant. Perturbations considered are inviscid and adiabatic. It is found that there are one-armed retrograde wave modes which are trapped in an inner region of the disk. The eignefrequency of the lowest order mode is given by K(r s)(z 0/r s)2, wherer s is the radius of the central star,z 0 is the half-thickness of the disk, and K(r s) is the Keplerian angular frequency at the surface of the star.Paper presented at the IAU Third Asian-Pacific Regional Meeting, held in Kyoto, Japan, between 30 September–6 October, 1984.  相似文献

It is shown that major geomagnetic storms (¦Dst¦ > 100) tend to develop at about the time of the passage of the solar current sheet or disk at the location of the Earth, provided this passage is associated with (1) a large impulsive increase of the IMF magnitude B, (2) a negative value of the IMF angle (Theta), and (3) an increasing solar wind speed. The passage occurs in association with the 27-day rotation of the warped current disk or a temporal up-down movement of the latter. The period in which ¦Dst¦/t< 0 during major storms coincides approximately with the period when the solar windmagnetosphere energy coupling function becomes 1019 erg s–1. These conclusions do not depend on the phase of the sunspot cycle.These results may be interpreted as follows: A high speed solar wind flow, originating either from flare regions or coronal holes, tends to push the solar current disk to move upward or downward for either a brief period (1 3 days) or an extended period (2 weeks). A relatively thin region of a large IMF B > 10 is often present near the moving current disk. Waves are also generated on the moving current disk, and some of them cause large changes of . A high value of is found in the region of a large IMF B near the wavy solar current disk, where has a large negative value.  相似文献

In a previous paper (Chatterjee, 1984), we studied the formation of ring galaxies due to head-on collisions between disk and spherical galaxies. The rings so formed are quite prominent and well defined. However, in the domain of rings, there are many faint rings which are ill defined and are so faint that they lie on the borderline of detectability. In this paper the formation of such rings is investigated.Using the impulsive approximation technique, in this paper we study an off-center collision between an exponential model disk galaxy and a polytropic (n=4) model spherical galaxy, in which the spherical galaxy moves normal to the plane of the disk galaxy and grazes its periphery. The radii of the two galaxies are taken to be equal, but due to the high central concentration of the spherical galaxy its radius is effectively one-third that of the disk galaxy. It is found that, as a result of the collision, the disk galaxy expands and attains an oblate shape. If the fractional change in binding energy of the disk galaxy, U/|U|, lies between 0.001 to 0.01, then a faint ring structure is formed which does not close on itself. If U/|U|0.01, then in addition to the faint ring a bridge and tail are formed. The ability of such low-energy collisions to affect even minor structural changes in the disk is due to the preferentially higher energy changes occurring in the side nearer to the perturbing galaxy than in the opposite side. Consequently, the structural changes produced are asymmetric.Such a faint ring may elude detection on photographs, but it will be revealed by sensitive photometric observations. There are several examples of such faint ring structures embedded in disks, which have been detected by observation.  相似文献

We investigate the global evolution of a turbulent protoplanetary disk incorporating the effects of Maxwell stress due to a large-scale magnetic field permeating the disk. A magnetic field is produced continuously by an dynamo and the resultant Maxwell stress assists the viscous stress in p roviding the means for disk evolution. The most striking feature of magnetized disk evolution is the presence of the surface density bulge located in the magnetic gap, the region of the disk where the degree of ionization is too low to allow for coupli ng between the magnetic field and the gas. The bulge persists for a time of the order of 105–106 yr. The presence and persistence of the surface density bulge may have important implications for the process of planet formation and the overall characteristics of resultant planetary systems.Operated by USRA under contract No. NASW-4574 with NASA.  相似文献

Basic properties of accretion disk instabilities are summarized. We first explain the standard disk model by Shakura and Sunyaev. In this model, the dominant sources of viscosity are assumed to be chaotic magnetic fields and turbulence in gas flow, and the magnitude of viscosity is prescribed by so-called model. It is then possible to build a particular disk model. In the framework of the standard model, accretion disks are stationary, but when some of the basic assumptions are relaxed, various kinds of instabilities appear. In particular, we focus on the thermal limit-cycle instability caused by partial ionization of hydrogen (and helium). We demonstrate that the disk instability model well accounts for the basic observed features of outbursts of dwarf novae and X-ray nova. We then introduce other kinds of instabilities based on the viscosity model. They are suspected to produce time variabilities observed on a wide range of timescales in close binaries and active galactic nuclei.  相似文献

We construct a standard thin disk model taking into account the pressure from both gas and radiation, the opacity contributed by both electron scattering and absorption, and the gravity from both a central object and a disk. A simple and powerful technique for solving the non-linear equations is presented. Through a numerical algorithm for the two equationl for, , , all the disk quantities are expressed as the analytical function of, , . We also discuss the solutions in the limit cases 0, 1 and the parameter range of the linear approximation. From the numerical solutions and limit analyses, we found that it is not necessary to include the self-gravity of the disk.  相似文献

A simple but sufficiently accurate method for calculating an accretion disk structure is developed. The detailed analysis of the accretion disk is fulfilled by using this method. The effect of turbulent heat transfer on the disk structure is taken into account along with the effect of radiative transfer. The turbulent heat transfer is shown to play an important role, and may be even predominant in the inner disk region. The dependence of temperatureT and density on thez-coordinate is found. Simple analytic expressions are proposed for the run of the density in all the disk zones. It is shown that the inner disk region is convectively stable. The main parameters of all the zones are derived. The geometry of regular motions is studied; the regular hydrodynamical flows are found to appear directed both toward and outside the central object. A detailed comparison is made with the results of other authors.  相似文献

Planetesimals orbiting a protostar in a circumstellar disk are affected by gravitational interaction among themselves and by gas drag force due to disk gas. Within the Kyoto model of planetesimal accretion, the migration rate is interpreted as the inverse of the planetary formation time scale. Here, we study time scales of gravitational interaction and gas drag force and their influence on planetesimal migration in detail. Evaluating observations of 86 T Tauri stars (Beckwithet al., 1990), we find the mean radial temperature profile of circumstellar disks. The disk mass is taken to be 0.01M in accordance with minimum mass models and observed T Tauri disks. The time scale of gravitational interaction between planetesimals is studied analogously to Chandrasekhar's stellar dynamics. Hence, Chandrasekhar's coefficient , defined as the fraction between the mean separation of planetesimals and the impact parameter, plays an important role in determining the migration rate. We find ln to lie between 5 and 10 within the protosolar disk. Our result is that, at the stage of disk evolution considered here, gas drag force affects the radial migration of planetesimals by a few orders of magnitude more than gravitational interaction.Paper presented at the Conference on Planetary Systems: Formation, Evolution, and Detection held 7–10 December, 1992 at CalTech, Pasadena, California, U.S.A.  相似文献

The mechanism of the large-scale magnetic field generation in the Crab Nebula is proposed. The basis for the considered fast mechanism is the model of the central region of Crab Nebula amorphous part having the form of slightly divergent double-layer disk consisting of the relativistic electron-positron plasma.The nebula toroidal magnetic field generation occurs in the double-layer disk in the immediate neighbourhood of the light cylinder of pulsar PSR 0531+21 due to the differential rotation by means of dynamo-mechanism. The generated field is transferred into the nebula by the pulsar wind which forms the double-layer disk.By use of the known parameters of pulsar PSR 0531+21, the considered mechanism yields the strength of magnetic fieldB=10–3 G observed in the nebula. The disk structure must be destroyed toward the edges of the nebula.  相似文献

The solar disk locations of 13 coronal streamers were determined from a combination of eclipse, K-coronameter (1 1/8r1 1/2 R ), and balloon-borne coronagraph (2<r<6 R ) observations taken during 1964 and 1965. Of this sample, three were observed twice on photographs taken over intervals of four and 28 days. Most of these streamers could be structurally associated with K-coronameter enhancements to establish their disk locations.Those features having known disk locations all lay above some stage of chromospheric disk activity in the form of active regions and prominences. The average lifetime of three K-coronameter streamer-enhancements, for which all or nearly all of their lifetimes were known, was about 4 solar rotations. Rotation rates for the lower latitude streamer-enhancements (30°) were essentially identical to the underlying surface. One high latitude feature ( 50°) which overlay a quiescent prominence had a rate equivalent to the surface rate at 30° latitude. In general those K-coronameter enhancements associated with streamers came into existence over time periods of 14 days and disappeared by gradually blending into the background coronal pattern. All the observed structures are explained by a model consisting of localized, high density features (streamers) which overlie disk activity and are imbedded in a uniform but weaker azimuthally-symmetric quiet corona.The National Center for Atmospheric Research is sponsored by the National Science Foundation.  相似文献

The goal of this paper is to account for the complete observed rotation curves of disk galaxies without dark matter. To attain that goal, use is made of a conservation law from stability theory of linear waves, leading to a vector-based theory of gravitation. In the theory, galactic centers are sites of strong gravitational fields. The new theory predicts extra matter at the center of disk galaxies, which is well-known to be consistent with intergalactic dynamics. For given disk radiusr 0 and edge tangential speedv, the greater the deviation of a rotation curve from linear (solid disk rotation), the greater the mass of the galaxy as a multiple of Newtonian massr 0v2/G, up to a factor of about 1000. In an approximate calculation it turns out that disk density (r) (in kg m–2) is proportional to 1/r for typical rotation curves. Rotation is characterized by two constants which in turn are determined by the edge speed and mass distribution. Not just any curve shape can be so obtained; in fact, the theoretically possible curves correspond to observed curves.  相似文献
