金牛座T型吸积星的磁场

The magnetic fields of accreting T Tauri stars

S. G. Gregory, S. P. Matt, J. -F. Donati, M. Jardine

摘要:

经典金牛座T星的磁层吸积模型通常假设恒星的磁场是一个简单的偶极子。然而,最近对V2129 Oph和BP Tau的塞曼多普勒成像研究表明,它们的磁场更为复杂。V2129 Oph是一颗高质量的金牛座T星,尽管它的年龄很小,但据信已经发展出辐射核心。与此相反,质量较低的BP Tau可能完全对流。由于这两颗恒星的内部结构不同,磁场产生过程也不同,因此比较它们的磁场结构是特别有意义的,这是通过从磁表面图外推磁场获得的。我们比较两个场结构多极磁场,并计算两个系统的磁盘截断半径。我们发现,通过考虑磁场与现实的复杂程度,磁盘被截断,或内,获得的偶极场的半径。

英文摘要:

Models of magnetospheric accretion on to classical T Tauri stars often assume that the stellar magnetic field is a simple dipole. Recent Zeeman-Doppler imaging studies of V2129 Oph and BP Tau have shown however that their magnetic fields are more complex. V2129 Oph is a high mass T Tauri star and despite its young age is believed to have already developed a radiative core. In contrast to this, the lower mass BP Tau is likely to be completely convective. As the internal structure and therefore the magnetic field generation process is different in both stars, it is of particular interest to compare the structure of their magnetic fields obtained by field extrapolation from magnetic surface maps. We compare both field structures to mulitpole magnetic fields, and calculate the disk truncation radius for both systems. We find that by considering magnetic fields with a realistic degree of complexity, the disk is truncated at, or within, the radius obtained for dipole fields.
