Some observed astrophysical phenomena, such as the blast of a supernova, suggest the necessity to study the motion of shock waves in a relativistic fluid flow in the presence of a magnetic field. This paper deals with the motion of a special relativistic shock wave which propagates from the center line outwardly after an explosion with the assumption that the magnetic field which has an axial component only. Similarity solutions which depend on the parameter =r/t are constructed. Two special cases are then studied in detail. In the first case, there is an ultrarelativistic fluid in front of the shock and in the second case, there is a cold fluid in front of the shock.  相似文献

A consistent account of plasma turbulence in magnetohydrodynamics equations describing transport processes across the magnetic field is presented. The structure of the perpendicular shock wave generated in the solar atmosphere, as a result of either local disturbance of the magnetic field or dense plasma cloud motion with a frozen-in magnetic field, has been investigated. The region of parameters in the solar atmosphere at which the electron-ion relative drift velocity u exceeds the electron thermal velocity V eand generation of radio emission becomes possible, has been determined. The plasma turbulence inside the front has been shown, under conditions of solar corona, not to cause the oscillation structure of shock front to break down. Under chromospheric conditions, the shock profile is aperiodical. Then, the condition u > Vecan be satisfied and shock waves having an Alfvén Mach number M which exceeds the critical value M c 3.3 for aperiodical shock waves can exist (Eselevich et al., 1971a). Arguments are given in favour of the fact that perpendicular shock waves are generated in the Sun's atmosphere when dense plasma clouds, with a frozen-in magnetic field, are expanded.  相似文献

Multispacecraft observations of energetic protons (E p 500 keV) were obtained by the APL/JHU instruments on board the IMP-7 and 8 spacecraft and the Voyager-1 and 2 deep space probes, in order to study the generation of solar flare Energetic Storm Particle (ESP) events at widely separated locations on the same shock front. These locations are presumably characterized, on the average, by different interplanetary magnetic field-shock front configurations, i.e. quasi-perpendicular (quasi-parallel) shocks for eastern (western) solar flare sites. The multispacecraft energetic proton observations show that substantial differences in the ESP proton intensity enhancements (defined as the ratio of intensity increases near the shock over the ambient solar proton population) are detected at these energies for locations on the shock front with wide heliolongitude separations. In particular, large ESP proton intensity enhancements are detected at locations on the shock front for which the solar flare site generating the shock is to the east of the spacecraft meridian, whereas only weak ESP events are observed at locations on the same shock for which the flare site is to the west of the spacecraft meridian. The results indicate that acceleration of ESP protons to E p 500 keV takes place exclusively at the quasi-perpendicular shock front domain, consistent with the shock drift acceleration mechanism (Armstrong et al., 1977).  相似文献

The anisotropic structure of the relativistic stellar wind is investigated. Both relativistic fluid velocity and relativistic temperature are taken into account. General analysis is carried out in the curvilinear coordinates and the generalization of the dispersion equation is obtained. The topological structure of the individual field lines is the same as in the spherically-symmetric case, except the fact that the magnetic field dependence on distance cannot be establisheda priori. The interaction between neighbouring field lines brings the dependence on the transverse coordinate, numbering the field lines. This dependence leads to the establishing of a new constraint on the global flow topology. The two-dimensional wind structure is analyzed, with the constraint taken into account, in the large distances limit, using the asymptotic expansion into ther –1 power series. In the lowest order approximation the constraint reduces to a new global constant of motion. This constant causes the splitting of the two solution families.  相似文献

A mechanism explaining the generation of the helium-enriched plasma-condensation colud (HAE-events) behind the front of shock waves associated with mass-ejecting flares is presented. The mechanism is based on the occurence of physical conditions, analogous to those in a Wilson cloud chamber in a magnetic field, behind the front of a flare-generated shock wave propagation out into interplanetary space. Consequently, if the solar atmosphere above the flare active region is saturated with ejected helium plasma, conditions are created for the forming of the helium-enriched plasma-condensation colud in the temperature-depressed region behind the shock wave front.  相似文献

Photospheric motion shears or twists solar magnetic fields to increase magnetic energy in the corona, because this process may change a current-free state of a coronal field to force-free states which carry electric current. This paper analyzes both linear and nonlinear two-dimensional force-free magnetic field models and derives relations of magnetic energy buildup with photospheric velocity field. When realistic data of solar magnetic field (B 0 103 G) and photospheric velocity field (v max 1 km s–1) are used, it is found that 3–4 hours are needed to create an amount of free magnetic energy which is of the order of the current-free field energy. Furthermore, the paper studies situations in which finite magnetic diffusivities in photospheric plasma are introduced. The shearing motion increases coronal magnetic energy, while the photospheric diffusion reduces the energy. The variation of magnetic energy in the coronal region, then, depends on which process dominates.  相似文献

The unsteady flow of an incompressible electrically-conducting and elasto-viscous fluid (Walter's liquidB), filling the semi-infinite space, in contact with an infinite non-conducting plate, in a rotating medium and in the presence of a transverse magnetic field is investigated. An arbitrary time-dependent forcing effect on the motion of the plate is considered and the plate and fluid rotate uniformly as a rigid body. The solution of the problem is obtained with the help of the Laplace transform technique and the analytical expressions for the velocity field as well as for the skin-friction are given.  相似文献

A fluid model of the jets in Fanaroff-Riley I class radio sources based on the idea that they are supersonic turbulent pressure confined flows consisting of relativistic and non-relativistic gases is described. Numerical simulations are used to investigate the properties of such flows propagating through typical atmospheres of an elliptical. The models whose parameters agree with the observational constraints on FR-I jets power, density, velocity, Mach number, spreading rate and pressure of relativistic particles are calculated. Natural assumptions such as a conservation of relativistic particles an equipartition of energy between magnetic field and turbulent motions are used to estimate the intensity evolution along simulated jets. It is concluded that an effective acceleration of relativistic particles is required to account for the observed FR-I jet brightness distribution.Paper presented at the 11th European Regional Astronomical Meetings of the IAU on New Windows to the Universe, held 3–8 July, 1989, Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain  相似文献

Nonlinear kinetic Alfvén waves where m e /m i , have been solved both with and without the Poisson equation correction. It is found that the ratio of the perpendicular electric field and magnetic field, and the ratio of parallel and perpendicular electric field increase with deepening of the depressive density soliton. The former ratio may be larger than the Alfvén velocity in the case of a large amplitude solitary kinetic Alfvén wave. The Poisson equation correction is important for the nonlinear kinetic Alfvén wave propagating along the magnetic field, which solves a puzzle of Sagdeev potential to approach infinity in the limit ofK x 0. This correction causes the solitary KAW possessing an electrostatic character along the direction of wave moving frame. These results have been compared with the observations from the Freja satellite in the low aurora.  相似文献

As a possible mechanism for particle acceleration in the impulsive phase of solar flares, a new particle acceleration mechanism in shock waves is proposed; a collisionless fast magnetosonic shock wave can promptly accelerate protons and electrons to relativistic energies, which was found by theory and relativistic particle simulation. The simultaneous acceleration of protons and electrons takes place in a rather strong magnetic field such that ce pe . For a weak magnetic field ( ce pe ), strong acceleration occurs to protons only. Resonant protons gain relativistic energies within the order of the ion cyclotron period (much less than 1 s for solar plasma parameters). The electron acceleration time is shorter than the ion-cyclotron period.  相似文献

A special Lagrangian coordinate system is introduced, in which the magnetic flux tube is the main object of investigation. The flux tube is shown to behave as a nonlinear relativistic string in relation to tangential force. General and particular variational principles are also discussed. With the introduction of a Lagrangian coordinate system the relativistic magnetohydrodynamic equation of motion reduces to a set of nonlinear string equations. From these results it follows that a highly conductive plasma with a frozen-in magnetic field can be considered as a gas of nonlinear strings interacting through pressure forces. A method is developed which allows the multi-dimensional nonlinear problems of RMHD (relativistic MHD) with boundary layers to be reduced to a set of two-dimensional problems for flux tubes, i.e., nonlinear strings.  相似文献

It has been shown by Atkinson (1965) that there is a rigorously exact euclidean interpretation of the general relativity field equations if certain arbitrary definitions of mass (m0 and the velocity of light (c) are invoked. With a preferred (euclidean) frame postulatedab initio, a particularly simple explanation in terms of classical physics may be found for very similar definitions ofm andc. It is not unexpected that with this scheme, all the usual tests of general relativity (light deflexion, perihelion motion, gravitational redshift, and radar delay time) are immediately satisfield. The preferred frame is however identified with a real aether and this requires a return to the Lorentzian interpretation of the special relativistic transformations of space and time variables. It is shown that gravity may be attributed to the action of a temperature gradient in the aether and an explanation of its origin in terms of an ideal relativistic gas is proposed. The temperature gradients are thermodynamically stable and do not diffuse if the relativistic aether ( A ) is effectively adiabatic and matter is fundamentally a species of aether with instantaneous motion at high (> A ) relative to the aethereal reast frame. To be consistent with such a picture, it is necessary to assume aether particles are capable of forming temporary associations (not recognized as matter) which take on some of the properties of crystalline solids and thereby become the means of transmitting electromagnetic radiation through space. The aether is essentially treated as a virtually incompressible fluid in which the pressure at any point arises from both random (temperature) and bulk (high ) motions. A number of specific predictions arising from this theory of gravity are indicated and these may serve to discriminate it from general relativity.  相似文献

Consideration is given to a search for relativistic objects in massive close binary systems without strong X-ray emission (L x <1034 erg s–1). It is pointed out that, according to the present-day theory on the evolution of massive close binaries, the number of neutron stars and black holes in non-X-ray binary systems must be 100 times the number of the known X-ray binaries comprising OB supergiant stars; that is why, in studying non-X-ray binary systems, the chances are to detect about a hundred of black holes in the Galaxy.Criteria are formulated for the relativistic nature of companions in the binary systems, such as high spatial velocity values and height Z over the galactic plane for OB stars (runaway stars) and for Wolf-Rayet stars. As reported by Tutukov and Yungelson (1973), as well as by van den Heuvel (1976), the presence of ring-type nebulae can serve as another indication of a relativistic nature of companions in the case of Wolf-Rayet stars.Data are collected on Wolf-Rayet stars with low-mass companions (Table I), which can be relativistic objects accreting within a strong stellar wind from Wolf-Rayet stars. Presented are new findings in respect of spectral examination of the runaway OB-stars (Table II), bringing together data on eight OB stars which can represent binary systems with relativistic companions (Table III).A list of 28 OB-stars (Table IV) which offer a good chance for finding relativistic companions is given.  相似文献

The acceleration of relativistic particles is considered during their intersection with hydromagnetic shock fronts in the presence of randomly distributed large-scale magnetic fields. In a series of astronomical objects, the Larmor radius of the relativistic particles exceeds the width of the shock front. In this case there is a change in the adiabatic invariant which results in an increase in the energy of the particle when it crosses the front in any direction. We have proved that the adiabatic part of the energy change will be partially or completely compensated by its reverse change in the weaker regions of the magnetic field. The acceleration mechanism considered is found to be more effective than the Fermi mechanism.If the mean free path of the particles is much less than the distance between the shock fronts, magnetic small-scale fluctuations cause further scattering of the particles. In this case the particles following and crossing the front will return to it. After reversed crossing, a fraction of the particles-defined by the ratio of the front speed to the particle velocity or of the distance between the fronts to the free path — will not return to the front. It is proved that for both large and small free paths the rates at which the particle gains energy are nearly the same.  相似文献

We investigate the equilibrium, oscillations, and stability of uniformly rotating masses with a toroidal magnetic field, proportional with the distance to te axis of rotation. The equilibrium is an oblate or prolate spheroid according as the rotational energy is greater or smaller than the magnetic energy. The sequence of equilibrium figures exhibits a maximum value for the angular velocity in the oblate case and a maximum for the angular momentum in the prolate case. The dispersion relation is derived using Bryan's modified spheroidal coordinates. One obtains 2(n–m)+4 solutions for the oscillation frequency ifm0 and 1/2n or 1/2(n+1) solutions for 2 according asn is even or odd ifm=0. The point where the Jacobi ellipsoids bifurcate from the MacLaurin sequence is unaffected by the magnetic field. However, the points of the onset of dynamical instability corresponding to the second and third harmonics and the point where a pear-shaped sequence bifurcate, depend upon the magnetic field. They are shifted to higher values for the eccentricity and can be suppressed by a sufficiently large magnetic field.  相似文献

Free convection effects on MHD flow past a semi infinite porous flat plate is studied when the time dependent suction velocity changes in step function form. The solution of the problem is obtained in closed form for the fluid with unit Prandtl number. It is observed that for both cooling and heating of the plate the suction velocity enhances the velocity field. The heat transfer is higher with increase in suction velocity.Notations B intensity of magnetic field - G Grashof number - H magnetic field parameter,H=(M+1/4) 1/2–1/2 - M magnetic field parameter - N u Nusselt number - P Prandtl number of the fluid - r suction parameter - T temperature of the fluid - T w temperature of the plate - T temperature of the fluid at infinity - t time - t non-dimensional time - u velocity of the fluid parallel to the plate - u non-dimensional velocity - U velocity of the free stream - suction velocity - 1 suction velocity att0 - 2 suction velocity att>0 - x,y coordinate axes parallel and normal to the plate, respectively - y non-dimensional distance normal to the plate - coefficient of volume expansion - thermal diffusivity - kinematic viscosity - electric conductivity of the fluid - density of the fluid - non-dimensional temperature of the fluid - shear stress at the plate - non dimensional shear stress - erf error function - erfc complementary error function  相似文献

We investigate the spherically symmetric, self-similar flow behind a blast wave from a point explosion in a medium whose density varies with distance asr with the assumption that the flow is both isothermal and contains a relativistic component of pressure. A self-similar solution is shown to exist only if both the blast wave speed,u s ,and the local sound speed,w, are constant. If [(1–w 2/c 2)] lies in 1>>0, there exists a critical point in the radial distance-flow velocity plane. To be physically acceptable, the solution must pass through the origin and through the critical point and then through to the blast front; solution branches between these points exist, although a proper connection at the critical point has not been demonstrated. If <0, a continuous single-valued solution does not exist. If 2>>1, the critical point is beyond the blast curve and the flow is subsonic everywhere. For 2<<3, the critical point disappears, but a new one arises. To be physically acceptable, the flow must by-pass this new critical point. It is shown that it does. The dependence of the solutions of is non-analytic for <1, so that interpolation between neighboring values of is not permitted. We investigate the stability of these isothermal blast waves to spherically symmetric but non-self-similar perturbations. If 3>>3/2 or 0<<1, the solutions are shown to be definitively linearly unstable against short wavelength disturbances near the blast front, they are also unstable there in 3/2>>1 unless the flow meets the blast front atprecisely the velocity (normalized) of (2–1)1/2/(3–2)1/2. The solutions are also unstable for all in 1>>0 near the critical point. Since there is no characteristic time scale in the system, all the instabilities grow as a power law in time rather than exponentially. The existence of these instabilities implies that initial deviations do not decay and the system does not tend to a self-similar form. We conclude that isothermal self-similar blast waves do not provide a valid model for a supernova remnant driven by a relativistic gas pressure. Since the validity of the adiabatic blast wave models has elsewhere been shown to be questionable, it is doubtful whether the self-similar property can be involved at all in the case of supernova remnants. This raises serious questions of interpretation of quantities deduced for supernova remnants on the basis of the use of self-similar models.  相似文献

The behaviour of magnetic field in anisotropic Bianchi type I cosmological model for perfect fluid distribution in General Relativity, is investigated. The distribution consists of an electrically neutral perfect fluid with an infinite electrical conductivity. It is assumed that the component 1 1 of shear tensor j i is proportional to the expansion () which leads to A = (BC)n. The other physical and geometrical aspects of the model are also discussed, Bali (1986) obtained the cosmological model for n = 1 in presence of magnetic field. We have investigated the model for general values of n and discussed the particular case and general behaviour of the model.  相似文献

Einstein's equations of general relativity are solved in terms of gravitational potential derivatives, withT equal to mass and/or field energy such thatT 0 outside a body. The line element equation then describes the variance of test particle internal geometrical structure and time-rate due to work done in a field, not the space-time curvature. Specific properties of gravitational fields and bodies come from this new solution: (a) The gravitational field consists of electromagnetic spin 2 gravitons which produce the gravitational force through the magnetic vector. (b) The gravitational mass is the Newtonian mass, not the relativistic mass, of a moving body. (c) An action principle exists in gravitation theory. (d) Attractive gravity exists between matter and antimatter. (e) Unification with quantum physics appears possible.  相似文献

The problem to compute the magnetic field above the chromosphere using data of the vector = B t/Bt that gives the projected field direction can be solved with different approximations. The field of direction vectors is, however, not the only field accessible to observations. The Stokes parameters, which are components of the radiation tensor, can be measured at each point of the image plane. The directions of the eigenvectors of the radiation tensor define two mutually orthogonal systems of integral curves in the image plane. These families of curves have singular points, which are generally of different type than those of the vector field. When the morphology of H chromospheric fibrils are used to infer the topology of the magnetic field, a similar problem is met, suggesting that singular points should also be present there.  相似文献
