Abstract— Detailed numerical models have shown that solar nebula shock waves would be able to thermally process chondrules in a way that is consistent with experimental constraints. However, it has recently been argued that the high relative velocities that would be generated between chondrules of different sizes immediately behind the shock front would lead to energetic collisions that would destroy the chondrules as they were processed rather than preserving them for incorporation into meteorite parent bodies. Here the outcome of these collisions is quantitatively explored using a simple analytic expression for the viscous dissipation of collisional energy in a liquid layer. It is shown that molten chondrules can survive collisions at velocities as high as a few hundred meters per second. It is also shown that the thermal evolution of chondrules in a given shock wave varies with chondrule size, which may allow chondrules of different textures to form in a given shock wave. While experiments are needed to further constrain the parameters used in this work, these calculations show that the expected outcomes from collisions behind shock waves are consistent with what is observed in meteorites.  相似文献

The effect of radiation up on the state of gas behind strong M.H.D. shock front has been studied. The jump conditions for flow variables across the shock boundary have been obtained and temperature decay behind the shock front is determined for a optically-thin brehmsstrahlung radiation plasma. It has been found that, for a shock within strong magnetic field, the temperature decay is much quicker.  相似文献

Based on an analytical model, we determined the temporal dynamics of the spectral shape and spatial distribution of the particles that were impulsively (in time) injected with a specified spectrum in the vicinity of a moving plane shock front. We obtained a condition to determine the influence of the shock front on the particle propagation, where the spatial diffusion coefficient of the particles plays a major role. Diffusive shock acceleration is shown to strongly affect low-energy particles (the intensity maximum coincides spatially with the shock front; hard and soft spectral regions are formed in the spectrum) and weakly affect high-energy particles (the time at which the intensity reaches its maximum is well ahead of the shock arrival time; the spectral shape does not change). In events accompanied by a significant increase in the turbulence level, the influence of the shock front on high-energy particles can change from weak to strong. This change shows up in the spatial distribution and spectral shape of the particles. The dynamics of the particle intensity, calculated with the diffusion coefficients that were determined in accordance with the quasi-linear theory for measured turbulence levels, qualitatively corresponds to the observed solar energetic-particle intensity.  相似文献

A flare-associated complex outburst was observed on 1968, October 23–24 with the 80 MHz Culgoora radioheliograph. Two harmonic type II bursts were followed by two successive extended sources with arch structure which appeared further beyond the optical limb than the preceding sources. The second arch showed a remarkable expansion with a projected velocity of 1200 km/sec. At its maximum the arch extended to a height of 2R . The height-time plots derived from both the radioheliograph and spectrum observations suggest that two shock waves of different propagation velocities were initiated at the flash phase of the flare: the faster one was responsible for the first type II burst and the first radio-emitting arch; the slower one for the second type II burst and the second arch whose expansion advanced with the shock front.  相似文献

We solve the nonlinear problem of the dynamics of a steady-state, spherically symmetric stellar wind by taking into account particle acceleration to relativistic energies near the shock front. The particles are assumed to be accelerated through the Fermi mechanism, interacting with stellar-wind turbulence and crossing many times the shock front that separates the supersonic and subsonic stellar-wind regions. We take into account the influence of the accelerated particles on hydrodynamic plasma-flow parameters. Our method allows all hydrodynamic parameters of the shock front and plasma in the supersonic region to be determined in a self-consistent way and the accelerated-particle energy spectrum to be calculated. Our numerical and analytic calculations show that the plasma compression ratio at the shock front increases compared to the case where there are no relativistic particles and that the velocity profile in the supersonic region acquires a characteristic kink. The shape of the energy spectrum for the accelerated particles and their pressure near the front are essentially determined by the presumed dependence of the diffusion coefficient on particle energy, which, in turn, depends on the scale distribution of turbulent pulsations and other stellar-wind inhomogeneities.  相似文献

It is commonly believed that solar type II bursts are caused by accelerated electrons at a shock front. Holman and Pesses (1983) suggested that electrons creating type II bursts are accelerated by the shock drift mechanism. Zlobec et al. (1993) dealt with a fine structure of type II bursts (herringbones) and suggested a qualitative model where electrons are accelerated by a nearly perpendicular wavy shock front. Using this idea, we developed a model of electron acceleration by such a wavy shock front. Electrons are accelerated by the drift mechanism in the shock layer. Under simplifying assumptions it is possible to obtain an analytical solution of electron motion in the wavy shock front. The calculations show that electrons are rarely reflected more than once at the wavy shock front and that their final energy is mostly 1–3 times the initial one. Their acceleration does not depend significantly on shock spatial parameters. In the present model all electrons are eventually transmitted downstream where they form two downstream beams. Resulting spectral and angular distributions of accelerated electrons are presented and the relevance of the model to the herringbone beams is discussed.  相似文献

We offer a possible explanation for the observational data on the magnetic-field structure in young supernova remnants (SN 1006, Tycho, Kepler, Cas A) that have been obtained by analyzing the polarizations of electromagnetic radiation in the radio, infrared, and other wavelength ranges. The authors of observational works interpret these data as evidence that the ordered magnetic-field component is predominantly radial, but it can be much smaller in amplitude than the stochastic field component that accounts for the bulk of the total magnetic energy. We calculate the magnetic field in supernova remnants by taking into account the shock compression of the primary field and the generation of a large-scale magnetic field by the particles accelerated at the shock front. The assumption that the field in the supernova remnant is the explosion-compressed primary field near the star is inconsistent with observational data, because the tangential (relative to the shock front) field component perpendicular to the radius must prevail in this case. However, allowing for the generation of an additional magnetic field by the electric current of the particles accelerated by a strong shock front leads us to conclude that the field components parallel to the front are suppressed by accelerated particles by several orders of magnitude. Only the component perpendicular to the front remains. Such a field configuration for uniform injection does not lead to the generation of an additional magnetic field, and, in this sense, it is stable. This explains the data on the radial direction of the ordered field component. As regards the stochastic field component, we show that it is effectively generated by accelerated particles if their injection into acceleration at the shock front is nonuniform along the front. Injection nonuniformity can be caused by upstream density nonuniformities. A relative density nonuniformity of the order of several percent is enough for an observable magnetic field with scales on the order of the density nonuniformity scales to be generated.  相似文献

We consider the processes related to the formation of the so-called foreshock region upstream of the Earth’s bow shock. We suggest a model based on the surfing of pick-up ions in the bow shock front in terms of which the ion acceleration mechanism in the front can be explained. We ascertain the physical conditions under which the accelerated ions lie upstream of the shock front and determine the direction of motion of the energetic ions. We conclude that it is this population of energetic ions (longitudinal beams) that plays a major role in forming the ion foreshock boundary.  相似文献

The initially supersonic flow of the solar wind passes through a magnetic shock front where its velocity is supposed to be reduced to subsonic values. The location of this shock front is primarily determined by the energy density of the external interstellar magnetic field and the momentum density of the solar wind plasma. Interstellar hydrogen penetrating into the heliosphere undergoes charge exchange processes with the solar wind protons and ionization processes by the solar EUV radiation. This results in an extraction of momentum from the solar wind plasma. Changes of the geometry and the location of the shock front due to this interaction are studied in detail and it is shown that the distance of the magnetic shock front from the Sun decreases from 200 to 80 AU for an increase of the interstellar hydrogen density from 0.1 to 1.0 cm−3. The geometry of the shock front is essentially spherical with a pronounced embayment in the direction opposite to the approach of interstellar matter which depends very much on the temperature of the interstellar gas. Due to the energy loss by the interaction with neutral matter the solar wind plasma reduces its velocity with increasing distance from the Sun. This modifies Parker's solution of a constant solar wind velocity.  相似文献

We consider the self-similar problem of a supernova explosion in a radially inhomogeneous medium by taking into account the generation of accelerated relativistic particles. The initial density of the medium is assumed to decrease with distance from the explosion center as a power law, ρ 0 = A/r θ. We use a two-fluid approach in which the total pressure in the medium is the sum of the circumstellar gas pressure and the relativistic particle pressure. The relativistic particle pressure at the shock front is specified as an external parameter. This approach is applicable in the case where the diffusion coefficient of accelerated particles is small and the thickness of the shock front is much smaller than its radius. We have numerically solved a system of ordinary differential equations for the dimensionless quantities that describe the velocity and density behind the shock front as well as the nonrelativistic gas and relativistic particle pressures for various parameters of the inhomogeneity of the medium and various compression ratios of the medium at the shock front. We have established that the shock acceleration of cosmic rays affects most strongly the formation of a supernova shell (making it thinner) in a homogeneous circumstellar medium. A decrease in the circumstellar matter density with distance from the explosion center causes the effect of shock-accelerated relativistic particles on the supernova shell formation to weaken considerably. Inhomogeneity of the medium makes the shell thicker and less dense, while an increase in the compression ratio of the medium at the shock front causes the shell to become thinner and denser. As the relativistic particle density increases, the effect of circumstellar matter inhomogeneity on the shell formation becomes weaker.  相似文献

The stability of galactic spiral shocks is considered. A steady-state shock should be checked to see (i) if it is evolutionary; (ii) if its front is stable against bending and torsion; and (iii) if the gas flow far from the front is stable. In the present paper the evolutionary criterion is obtained, which implies that conditions in galaxies may lead to the evolutionary spiral shocks as well as to the nonevolutionary ones. In the latter case a galactic shock cannot persist — it instantly decays, emitting spontaneously spiral waves. This leads to a plausible stratification of the spiral arms, to the formation of the secondary arms, ‘spurs’ and other secondary features. The steady-state gas flow with a galactic shock (Roberts, 1969) turns out to be unstable far from the shock front, the increment being proportional to the velocity gradient. For the spiral shock calculated by Roberts (1969) the instability develops ahead of the shock front with the same growth-time of about 3×107 years for all disturbance scales. This may provide a mechanism to generate turbulence of interstellar gas and to form the patchy structure of spiral arms which are known to include the structural units (gas clouds) on all possible scales.  相似文献

A global iteration method to determine the self-consistent structure of steady plane-parallel radiative shock waves is shown to converge to the stable solution with upstream front velocities of 15 km/s ≤ U 1≤ 60 km/s and for hydrogen gas of unperturbed temperature T= 3000 K and density ρ = 10−10gcm−3. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

We have imaged H2O maser emission from the star-forming region S128 at milli-arcsec resolution using MERLIN, to complement 20 years of monitoring data from the Puschino radio telescope. The drift velocities of the masers and the velocity and location of a new maser region add depth to the model of two colliding CO clouds triggering collapse. Some H2O masers appear to originate directly from this shock front. The brightest maser appears typical of a YSO jet and remains unsaturated close to peak intensity. The distribution of maser clumps has a fractal dimension 0.4; combined with analysis of drift velocity variations this suggests that the masers trace the dissipation of supersonic turbulence. The spatial distribution of velocities shows that this is in parts more structured than the Kolmogorov cascade.  相似文献

The spectra of energetic protons measured on the Voyager-1 and Voyager-2 spacecraft in the inner heliospheric shock layer can be explained in terms of the classical theory of the shock drift acceleration of interstellar pickup protons with allowancemade for theirmultiple reflection from the front. The spacecraft entered this region after the heliospheric termination shock crossing in 2004 and 2007, respectively. The large-scale variations of the magnetic field direction near the shock front associated with the passage of sector structures through it are the decisive factor in explaining the measurements.  相似文献

The interaction of a plane-parallel hypersonic stellar wind with a globule in an Hii region is considered in two approximations. In both approximations, the ionization front on the globule remains strong-D type, and a flow pattern containing two oppositely facing shock waves results. In the first approximation, the structure of the shocked region is calculated assuming that globule gas and stellar wind gas mix well and move at the same velocity. However, this assumption results in a very thick shocked layer and the assumption of good mixing is consequently not well justified. This approximation provides an upper limit on the gas velocities expected in the shocked gas which originated at the globule. In the second approximation, the stellar wind merely applies pressure to balance the momentum flux in the globule gas. The structure of the shocked region is calculated on the assumption that a tangential discontinuity exists between shocked stellar wind and shocked glubule gas. Structures may be produced having velocities ～10 km s?1 and emission measures ～103 cm?6 pc with reasonable stellar luminosities and mass loss rates.  相似文献

We solve the self-consistent problem of the generation of a static magnetic field by the electric current of accelerated particles near a strong plane MHD shock front. We take into account the back reaction of the field on the particle diffusion tensors and the background plasma parameters near the front. Various states that differ significantly in static magnetic-field strength are shown to be possible near a strong front. If the initial field has a component normal to the front, then its components parallel to the front are suppressed by accelerated particles by several orders of magnitude. Only the component perpendicular to the front remains. This field configuration for uniform particle injection at the front does not lead to the generation of an additional field, and, in this sense, it is stable. If the initial field is parallel to the front, then either its significant enhancement by two or three orders of magnitude or its suppression by several orders of magnitude is possible. The phenomenon under consideration is an example of the self-organization of plasma with a magnetic field in a strongly nonequilibrium system. It can significantly affect the efficiency of particle acceleration by the shock front and the magnetobremsstrahlung of the accelerated particles.  相似文献

Dynamical evolution of a relativistic beam ejected from a galactic centre is studied using the similarity method for the relativistic winds flowing through channels. The expansion phase is divided into two stages: A relativistic expansion and a non-relativistic expansion stage. By the dimensional analysis for a relativistic wind, the propagation law of the expanding wave front is obtained. When the front moves relativistically, the density of the ambient matter observed in the co-moving frame of the front increases by the Lorentz contraction and mass increment, and the propagation law obtained in the classical theory is modified by these relativistic effects. On the basis of a perturbation method, a new similarity method for a relativistic flow whose front velocity is varing with the expansion is presented. The flow structures of the relativistic wind are given. With the expansion of a beam, the inward-facing shock wave is more separated from the front of the outward-expanding shock wave and its shock strength becomes stronger than that of the outward-expanding shock wave when the ejected beam consists of energetic particles. The evolutions of the extragalactic double sources are considered. The relative position of the hot spot in the radio map is presented at each stage of the expansion and discussed with the observational radio maps. The time variation of the radio emission is predicted.  相似文献

Conclusions In this paper I have set forth in detail the theory of thermal waves in inhomogeneous media; it has, I believe, independent theoretical interest. I wish also to point out the fact that the mechanism of separation of an envelope in a nova explosion has hitherto remained obscure, since it strongly depends on the nature of the energy source of the explosion. Thus, if this energy is liberated by thermonuclear reactions, it is more probable that the time of development of the phenomenon reaches hundreds or even thousands of seconds. In such a case, the ejection of an envelope of the star is the result of the total effect of an infinite series of acoustic and weak shock waves that, added together, give a powerful pressure wave [6]. But if the energy of the explosion is gravitational in nature, its liberation may be virtually instantaneous, and the mechanism that transports the energy to infinity could be either a shock wave or a thermal wave. Moreover, if the explosion is due to a rearrangement of only the outer shell of the star, a thermal wave is more probable. And although the velocities of the thermal waves themselves are high, the rate of expansion of the matter of the shell will be appreciably less, since the time (of the order of a few seconds) is too short for interaction between radiation and matter. This distribution of velocities of the matter behind the thermal front can be obtained by a numerical solution of the equations of gas dynamics with allowance for the effects of radiative thermal conductivity; I hope to find such a solution in the future.Astronomical Observatory, L'vov University.

This paper presents simplified forms of jump relations for one dimensional shock waves propagating in a dusty gas. The dusty gas is assumed to be a mixture of a perfect gas and spherically small solid particles, in which solid particles are continuously distributed. The simplified jump relations for the pressure, the temperature, the density, the velocity of the mixture and the speed of sound have been derived in terms of the upstream Mach number. The expressions for the adiabatic compressibility of the mixture and the change-in-entropy across the shock front have also been derived in terms of the upstream Mach number. Further, the handy forms of shock jump relations have been obtained in terms of the initial volume fraction of small solid particles and the ratio of specific heats of the mixture, simultaneously for the two cases viz., (i) when the shock is weak and, (ii) when it is strong. The simplified shock jump relations reduce to the Rankine-Hugoniot conditions for shock waves in an ideal gas when the mass fraction (concentration) of solid particles in the mixture becomes zero. Finally, the effects due to the mass fraction of solid particles in the mixture, and the ratio of the density of solid particles to the initial density of the gas are studied on the pressure, the temperature, the density, the velocity of the mixture, the speed of sound, the adiabatic compressibility of the mixture and the change-in-entropy across the shock front. The results provided a clear picture of whether and how the presence of dust particles affects the flow field behind the shock front. The aim of this paper is to contribute to the understanding of how the shock waves behave in the gas-solid particle two-phase flows.  相似文献
