摘要:

利用光滑粒子流体动力学方法研究了球状星团致密星核中红巨星与主序星的潮汐相互作用。两个表面半径为20和$85 R_\sun$的$0.8 \msun$红巨星模型被使用,0.6或$0.8M_\sun$主序星被视为质点。我们证明,即使是广泛的遭遇,两颗恒星飞离,轨道运动的角动量可以存入红巨星信封到这样一个程度,以触发旋转混合和解释观察到的水平分支星的快速旋转,也可以吸积足够的质量主序星,以掩饰其表面对流区与红巨星信封的物质。在现有结果的基础上,我们讨论了考虑非线性效应时这些转移特性的参数依赖性,并导出了作为恒星参数和相遇碰撞参量的函数的红巨星的能量和角动量以及微扰子的质量的拟合公式。这些公式不仅适用于红巨星的碰撞,而且适用于主序星的碰撞,对于考虑星-星相互作用的恒星系统演化的研究也是有用的。

英文摘要:

We investigate the tidal interactions of a red giant with a main sequence in the dense stellar core of globular clusters by Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics method. Two models of $0.8 \msun$ red giant with the surface radii 20 and $85 R_\sun$ are used with 0.6 or $0.8M_\sun$ main sequence star treated as a point mass. We demonstrate that even for the wide encounters that two stars fly apart, the angular momentum of orbital motion can be deposited into the red giant envelope to such an extent as to trigger rotational mixing and to explain the fast rotation observed for the horizontal branch stars, and also that sufficient mass can be accreted on the main sequence stars to disguise their surface convective zone with the matter from the red giant envelope. On the basis of the present results, we discuss the parameter dependence of these transfer characteristics with non-linear effects taken into account, and derive fitting formulae to give the amounts of energy and angular momentum deposited into the red giant and of mass accreted onto the perturber as functions of stellar parameters and the impact parameter of encounter. These formulae are applicable to the encounters not only of the red giants but also of the main sequence stars, and useful in the study of the evolution of stellar systems with the star-star interactions taken into account.
