Christopher W. Mauche, Duane A. Liedahl, Shizuka Akiyama, Tomasz Plewa

摘要:

我们提供了一个简短的回顾背后的辐射驱动的OB星的风和Bondi-Hoyle-Lyttleton捕获和吸积的一小部分的恒星风的紧凑的对象,通常是一个中子星,在分离的高质量X射线双星(HMXB)的物理过程。此外,我们描述了一个程序,开发全球模型的辐射驱动的光电离风和吸积流的HMXB,特别注意的原型系统船帆座X-1。该模型结合了XSTAR光电离计算,HULLAC发射模型适合于X射线光电离等离子体,改进模型的辐射驱动的光电离风,闪光时间相关的自适应网格流体动力学计算,和蒙特卡罗辐射输运。我们提出了二维和三维地图的密度,温度,速度,电离参数,和发射率分布的代表性的X射线发射线,以及合成的全球蒙特卡罗X射线光谱。这样的模型有助于更好地约束HMXB的风的属性,这关系到这些双星的长期演化和星际介质的化学富集等基本问题。

英文摘要:

We provide a brief review of the physical processes behind the radiative driving of the winds of OB stars and the Bondi-Hoyle-Lyttleton capture and accretion of a fraction of the stellar wind by a compact object, typically a neutron star, in detached high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs). In addition, we describe a program to develop global models of the radiatively-driven photoionized winds and accretion flows of HMXBs, with particular attention to the prototypical system Vela X-1. The models combine XSTAR photoionization calculations, HULLAC emission models appropriate to X-ray photoionized plasmas, improved models of the radiative driving of photoionized winds, FLASH time-dependent adaptive-mesh hydrodynamics calculations, and Monte Carlo radiation transport. We present two- and three-dimensional maps of the density, temperature, velocity, ionization parameter, and emissivity distributions of representative X-ray emission lines, as well as synthetic global Monte Carlo X-ray spectra. Such models help to better constrain the properties of the winds of HMXBs, which bear on such fundamental questions as the long-term evolution of these binaries and the chemical enrichment of the interstellar medium.
