摘要:

致密残余物自旋的预测是恒星演化理论的一个基本目标。在这里,我们面对的预测白矮星自旋的进化模型,包括旋转与观测的限制。我们进行恒星演化计算的恒星在质量范围1. 3 $\mso$,包括自转物理,从零年龄主序进入TP-AGB阶段。我们计算了两组模型序列,包括和不包括磁场。从每个序列的最终计算模型,我们推导出的角动量和旋转速度的新兴白矮星。虽然模型,包括磁转矩预测白矮星的旋转速度在2和10公里秒$^{-1}$,那些从非磁性序列被发现是一个到两个数量级更大,远高于经验上限。我们发现类似的情况下,在中子星祖质量范围内,并得出结论,可能需要的磁矩,以了解一般的致密恒星残余物的缓慢旋转。

英文摘要:

The prediction of the spins of the compact remnants is a fundamental goal of the theory of stellar evolution. Here, we confront the predictions for white dwarf spins from evolutionary models including rotation with observational constraints. We perform stellar evolution calculations for stars in the mass range 1... 3$\mso$, including the physics of rotation, from the zero age main sequence into the TP-AGB stage. We calculate two sets of model sequences, with and without inclusion of magnetic fields. From the final computed models of each sequence, we deduce the angular momenta and rotational velocities of the emerging white dwarfs. While models including magnetic torques predict white dwarf rotational velocities between 2 and 10 km s$^{-1}$, those from the non-magnetic sequences are found to be one to two orders of magnitude larger, well above empirical upper limits. We find the situation analogous to that in the neutron star progenitor mass range, and conclude that magnetic torques may be required in order to understand the slow rotation of compact stellar remnants in general.
