摘要:

用三维电阻MHD嵌套网格模拟研究了碎裂和二元形成过程。从均匀磁场中旋转的Bonnor-Ebert等温云开始,我们计算了从分子云核(n=10^4 cm^-3)到恒星核(n \simeq 10^22 cm^-3)的云演化。我们计算了147个模型,具有不同的初始磁场,旋转,和热能,和振幅的非轴对称扰动。在坍缩云中,碎裂主要由转动能与磁能的初始比值控制,而与非轴对称扰动的初始热能和振幅无关。当云的旋转能相对于磁能较大时,碎片化发生在低密度演化阶段(10^12 cm^-3 < n < 10^15 cm^-3),间距为3-300 AU。在这一阶段出现的碎片有望演化成宽双星系统。另一方面,碎片不会发生在低密度演化阶段,当初始云有大的磁能的旋转能量。在这些云中,碎裂只发生在高密度演化阶段(n > 10^17 cm^-3),在10^12 cm^-3 < n < 10^15 cm^-3的时间段内,由于欧姆耗散,云经历了磁场的显著减小。在这个阶段出现的碎片的分离度< 0.3 AU,预计会演化成密近双星系统。结果,我们发现了两个典型的碎裂时期,它们导致不同的恒星分离。虽然这些典型的分离在随后的气体吸积阶段受到干扰,但我们可能能够在非常年轻的恒星群中观察到两个双星分离峰。

英文摘要:

Fragmentation and binary formation processes are studied using three-dimensional resistive MHD nested grid simulations. Starting with a Bonnor-Ebert isothermal cloud rotating in a uniform magnetic field, we calculate the cloud evolution from the molecular cloud core (n=10^4 cm^-3) to the stellar core (n \simeq 10^22 cm^-3). We calculated 147 models with different initial magnetic, rotational, and thermal energies, and the amplitudes of the non-axisymmetric perturbation. In a collapsing cloud, fragmentation is mainly controlled by the initial ratio of the rotational to the magnetic energy, regardless of the initial thermal energy and amplitude of the non-axisymmetric perturbation. When the clouds have large rotational energies in relation to magnetic energies, fragmentation occurs in the low-density evolution phase (10^12 cm^-3 < n < 10^15 cm^-3) with separations of 3-300 AU. Fragments that appeared in this phase are expected to evolve into wide binary systems. On the other hand, fragmentation does not occur in the low-density evolution phase, when initial clouds have large magnetic energies in relation to the rotational energies. In these clouds, fragmentation only occurs in the high-density evolution phase (n > 10^17 cm^-3) after the clouds experience significant reduction of the magnetic field owing to Ohmic dissipation in the period of 10^12 cm^-3 < n < 10^15 cm^-3. Fragments appearing in this phase have separations of < 0.3 AU, and are expected to evolve into close binary systems. As a result, we found two typical fragmentation epochs, which cause different stellar separations. Although these typical separations are disturbed in the subsequent gas accretion phase, we might be able to observe two peaks of binary separations in extremely young stellar groups.
