K. Dolag, F. A. Stasyszyn

摘要:

各种各样的射电观测表明,星系团的热大气是磁化的。然而,我们对这些磁场的起源,它们对结构形成的影响以及它们与星系团大气动力学的相互作用,特别是在星系团中心的理解仍然非常有限。为了准备即将到来的新一代射电望远镜(如EVLA,LWA,LOFAR和SKA),正在做出巨大努力,从观测的角度更多地了解宇宙学磁场。在这里,我们提出了磁流体力学的宇宙SPH程序GADGET的实现。我们讨论的实施细节和各种计划,以抑制数值不稳定性以及正则化计划,在宇宙学模拟的背景下。的SPH MHD代码的性能表现在各种一维和二维的测试问题,我们进行了,如果一个完整的,三维的设置来测试代码在现实的情况下。与ATHENA得到的解决方案相比,我们发现我们的SPH MHD实现非常好的协议。最后,我们应用我们的SPH MHD实现形成星系团在一个大的,宇宙学的盒子。执行分辨率的研究,我们证明了稳健的预测形状的磁场分布在星系团,这是在良好的协议与以前的研究。

英文摘要:

Various radio observations have showed that the hot atmospheres of galaxy clusters are magnetized. However, our understanding of the origin of these magnetic fields, their implications on structure formation and their interplay with the dynamics of the cluster atmosphere, especially in the centers of galaxy clusters is still very limited. In preparation to the upcoming new generation of radio telescopes (like EVLA, LWA, LOFAR and SKA), a huge effort is being made to learn more about cosmological magnetic fields from the observational perspective. Here we present the implementation of magneto hydrodynamics in the cosmological SPH code GADGET. We discuss the details of the implementation and various schemes to suppress numerical instabilities as well as regularization schemes, in the context of cosmological simulations. The performance of the SPH MHD code is demonstrated in various one and two dimensional test problems, which we performed if a fully, three dimensional setup to test the code under realistic circumstances. Comparing with solutions obtained with ATHENA, we find excellent agreement with our SPH MHD implementation. Finally we apply our SPH MHD implementation to forming galaxy clusters within a large, cosmological box. Performing a resolution study we demonstrate the robustness of the predicted shape of the magnetic field profiles in galaxy clusters, which is in good agreement with previous studies.
