磁场几何对黑洞吸积流演化的影响:相似的吸积流,不同的喷流

The Influence of Magnetic Field Geometry on the Evolution of Black Hole Accretion Flows: Similar Disks, Drastically Different Jets

Kris Beckwith, John F. Hawley, Julian H. Krolik

摘要:

由于磁旋转不稳定性能够指数地放大先前存在的弱磁场,因此可能希望吸积盘中的磁场的特性与种子场的性质无关。然而,高导电流体中磁场的无发散性质确保了它们的大尺度拓扑结构得以保持,无论场强变化有多大。通过对初始磁场的几种不同拓扑结构进行全局二维和三维广义相对论磁流体动力学圆盘模拟,我们探讨了黑洞周围流场的性质对初始拓扑结构的依赖程度.我们发现,虽然吸积流的定性性质几乎是独立的场拓扑结构,喷射发射是非常敏感的:一个意义上的垂直场一致的至少一个内部磁盘流入时间是必不可少的支持强射流。

英文摘要:

Because the magneto-rotational instability is capable of exponentially amplifying weak preexisting magnetic fields, it might be hoped that the character of the magnetic field in accretion disks is independent of the nature of the seed field. However, the divergence-free nature of magnetic fields in highly conducting fluids ensures that their large-scale topology is preserved, no matter how greatly the field intensity is changed. By performing global two-dimensional and three-dimensional general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic disk simulations with several different topologies for the initial magnetic field, we explore the degree to which the character of the flows around black holes depends on the initial topology. We find that while the qualitative properties of the accretion flow are nearly independent of field topology, jet-launching is very sensitive to it: a sense of vertical field consistent for at least an inner disk inflow time is essential to the support of strong jets.
