中子星超临界吸积流的二维辐射-流体力学模型

Two-dimensional Radiation-hydrodynamic Model for Supercritical Disk Accretion Flows onto Neutron Stars

Ken Ohsuga

摘要:

我们对中子星周围的超临界吸积流进行了二维辐射流体动力学模拟。与吸积流到黑洞(BH)的对比,我们发现,壳状的高密度区域形成周围的NS,因为在最里面的区域的辐射力增强。增强的辐射力驱动了盘面上方和下方的强流出。NS上的质量吸积速率超过了临界速率$L_{\rm E}/c^2$,其中$L_{\rm E}$是爱丁顿光度。然而,在我们采用相同的质量输入速率$\dot{M}_{\rm input}$的条件下,它是关于到BH上的$20-30%$的。质量流出率是几倍大的流量在NS周围比在BH周围的流量。超临界NS吸积流主要将吸积能作为外流动能释放,而BH吸积流中吸积盘光度对动能输出率起主导作用。对于$3\times 10^2\lsim \dot{M}_{\rm input}/(L_{\rm E}/c^2)\lsim 3\times 10^3$的质量输入速率,流出的最终速度和质量流出速率分别为$0.2-0.3c$和$150-700L_{\rm E}/c^2$。这意味着SS 433喷流可以粗略地用NS上的超临界吸积来解释。然而,在我们的模拟($\sim 20^\circ$)的流出的准直角大于SS 433射流(几度)。

英文摘要:

We performed two-dimensional radiation hydrodynamic simulations of supercritical accretion flows around neutron stars (NSs). In contrast with the accretion flows onto black holes (BHs), we find that the shell-shaped high-density regions form around the NSs, since the radiation force is enhanced in the innermost regions. The enhanced radiation force drives strong outflows above and below the disk. The mass-accretion rate onto the NS exceeds the critical rate, $L_{\rm E}/c^2$, with $L_{\rm E}$ being the Eddington luminosity. However it is about $20-30%$ of that onto the BH, under the condition that we employ the same mass-input rate, $\dot{M}_{\rm input}$, which is mass injected from the outer disk boundary per unit time. The mass-outflow rate is a few-times larger in flows around NSs than in flows around BHs. The supercritical NS accretion flows mainly release the accretion energy as the kinetic energy of the outflows, though the disk luminosity is predominant over the kinetic energy output rate in the BH accretion flows. The resulting velocity and mass-outflow rate of the outflows are $0.2-0.3c$ and $150-700L_{\rm E}/c^2$, respectively, for the mass-input rate of $3\times 10^2\lsim \dot{M}_{\rm input}/(L_{\rm E}/c^2)\lsim 3\times 10^3$. This implies that the SS433 jets can be roughly explained by the supercritical accretion onto a NS. However, the collimation angle of the outflows in our simulations ($\sim 20^\circ$) is larger than that of the SS433 jets (a few degrees).
