行星状星云喷流-风相互作用的X射线辐射

X-Ray Emission from Jet-Wind Interaction in Planetary Nebulae

Muhammad Akashi, Yohai Meiron, Noam Soker

摘要:

我们进行2D数值模拟的喷流扩展到缓慢的风的渐近巨星分支星。我们发现,激波后喷流的物质可以解释观测到的某些行星状星云(PN)的扩展X射线发射。这样的射流被认为是许多PN的形状,因此预计该过程将有助于从一些PN发射X射线。在其他PNs中(本工作中未模拟),扩展X射线发射源是中心恒星吹来的冲击球风。在一小部分PN中,两个源都可能有贡献,并且双温度气体比单温度气体更适合X射线性质。预计这两个组件之间存在空间分离。

英文摘要:

We conduct 2D numerical simulations of jets expanding into the slow wind of asymptotic giant branch stars. We show that the post-shock jets' material can explain the observed extended X-ray emission from some planetary nebulae (PNs). Such jets are thought to shape many PNs, and therefore it is expected that this process will contribute to the X-ray emission from some PNs. In other PNs (not simulated in this work) the source of the extended X-ray emission is the shocked spherical wind blown by the central star. In a small fraction of PNs both sources might contribute, and a two-temperatures gas will fit better the X-ray properties than a one-temperature gas. A spacial separation between these two components is expected.
