原行星大气中颗粒的不透明度

The opacity of grains in protoplanetary atmospheres

Naor Movshovitz, Morris Podolak

摘要:

我们计算了按照Pollack等人(1996)的设想演化的原行星包层外辐射区硅酸盐颗粒的粒度分布。我们的计算包括晶粒长大由于布朗运动和大的超越较小的晶粒。我们还包括由于大气中的星子分裂而产生的新颗粒的输入。我们遵循Podolak(2003)的程序,但大大加快了速度。这允许我们测试代码对各种参数的敏感性。我们还对由此产生的颗粒不透明度进行了更仔细的估计。我们发现,在大多数外辐射区,颗粒不透明度为$10^{-2}\ \mathrm{cm^2 g^{-1}}$量级,正如Hubickyj等人(2005)在低不透明度情况下所假设的那样,但在包络的外边缘附近,不透明度可以增加到$\sim{1} \mathrm{cm^2 g^{-1}}$。我们讨论了这对模型演化的影响。

英文摘要:

We have computed the size distribution of silicate grains in the outer radiative region of the envelope of a protoplanet evolving according to the scenario of Pollack et al. (1996). Our computation includes grain growth due to Brownian motion and overtake of smaller grains by larger ones. We also include the input of new grains due to the breakup of planetesimals in the atmosphere. We follow the procedure of Podolak (2003), but have speeded it up significantly. This allows us to test the sensitivity of the code to various parameters. We have also made a more careful estimate of the resulting grain opacity. We find that the grain opacity is of the order of $10^{-2}\ \mathrm{cm^2 g^{-1}}$ throughout most of the outer radiative zone as Hubickyj et al. (2005) assumed for their low opacity case, but near the outer edge of the envelope, the opacity can increase to $\sim{1} \mathrm{cm^2 g^{-1}}$. We discuss the effect of this on the evolution of the models.
