磁场对年轻恒星周围星周盘形成的影响

The effect of magnetic fields on the formation of circumstellar discs around young stars

Daniel J. Price, Matthew R. Bate

摘要:

我们目前的第一个结果,我们的磁场在单星和双星的形成,使用最近开发的方法,将磁流体力学(MHD)的平滑粒子流体动力学(SPH)方法的模拟。在讨论磁场对年轻恒星周围星周盘形成的影响之前,对该方法进行了概述。我们发现,在磁盘形成过程中的磁场的存在下,可以导致显着更小,质量更小的磁盘,这是更不容易发生引力不稳定。类似地,在双星形成的情况下,我们发现磁场总体上抑制了碎片化。然而,这些影响被发现在很大程度上是由磁压力驱动。磁张力的相对重要性取决于磁场相对于旋转轴的方向,但在正确的方向上,可能会导致磁压力驱动的碎裂抑制的稀释。

英文摘要:

We present first results of our simulations of magnetic fields in the formation of single and binary stars using a recently developed method for incorporating Magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) into the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method. An overview of the method is presented before discussing the effect of magnetic fields on the formation of circumstellar discs around young stars. We find that the presence of magnetic fields during the disc formation process can lead to significantly smaller and less massive discs which are much less prone to gravitational instability. Similarly in the case of binary star formation we find that magnetic fields, overall, suppress fragmentation. However these effects are found to be largely driven by magnetic pressure. The relative importance of magnetic tension is dependent on the orientation of the field with respect to the rotation axis, but can, with the right orientation, lead to a dilution of the magnetic pressure-driven suppression of fragmentation.
