摘要:

这项工作将物质减速的磁流体动力学辐射冲击波在表面的恒星。这个问题与经典的金牛座T星有关,在那里,下落的物质沿着恒星的磁场流动,并在光球层的致密层中停止。目前工作的一个重要的新方面是,磁场相对于恒星表面的法线具有任意角度。我们考虑的极限是,在恒星表面的磁场不是很强,在这个意义上说,流入是超阿尔夫文尼克。在此极限下,等离子体的初始减速和加热(在冷却区的入口处)发生在快速磁流体动力学冲击波中。为了计算辐射损失的强度,我们使用“实数”和“幂律”辐射函数。我们确定的稳定性/不稳定性的辐射冲击波作为一个函数的参数的传入流:速度,强度的磁场,和它的倾角的表面的恒星。在一些模拟运行与“真正的”辐射功能,我们发现一个简单的标准稳定的辐射冲击波。对于宽范围的参数,冲击波的振荡周期为0.02-0.2秒的量级。

英文摘要:

This work treats the matter deceleration in a magnetohydrodynamics radiative shock wave at the surface of a star. The problem is relevant to classical T Tauri stars where infalling matter is channeled along the star's magnetic field and stopped in the dense layers of photosphere. A significant new aspect of the present work is that the magnetic field has an arbitrary angle with respect to the normal to the star's surface. We consider the limit where the magnetic field at the surface of the star is not very strong in the sense that the inflow is super Alfvénic. In this limit the initial deceleration and heating of plasma (at the entrance to the cooling zone) occurs in a fast magnetohydrodynamic shock wave. To calculate the intensity of radiative losses we use "real" and "power-law" radiative functions. We determine the stability/instability of the radiative shock wave as a function of parameters of the incoming flow: velocity, strength of the magnetic field, and its inclination to the surface of the star. In a number of simulation runs with the "real" radiative function, we find a simple criterion for stability of the radiative shock wave. For a wide range of parameters, the periods of oscillation of the shock wave are of the order 0.02-0.2 sec.
