摘要:

本文研究了具有指数盘和尖状暗物质晕的星系模型中的棒不稳定性,以及Navarro-Frenk-White(NFW)宇宙学密度分布。我们从一个3-积分复合分布函数,受到杆不稳定性的平衡模型。我们生成了一系列模型,其质量分辨率范围从盘中的1.8K到18 M粒子和晕中的10 K到100 M粒子,以及有效分辨率为~10^10粒子的多质量模型。我们描述了质量分辨率如何影响酒吧的不稳定性,包括其线性增长阶段,屈曲不稳定性,模式速度衰减通过共振转移角动量的DM晕,和可能的破坏晕尖。我们的高分辨率模拟显示了收敛谱的酒吧和DM晕轨道之间的离散共振相互作用。随着斑图速度的衰减,轨道共振扫过大部分DM晕相空间,并在晕粒子之间广泛分布角动量。晕不发展一个平坦的密度核心,并保留尖点,除了在重力软化占主导地位的区域。棒的形成增加了中心恒星的密度,DM被压缩,从而使晕中心密度增加了1.7倍。总的来说,酒吧的演变显示收敛的行为之间的晕粒子数为1 M和10 M的粒子,当比较酒吧的增长,图案速度的演变,DM晕密度分布和轨道共振的非线性分析。更高分辨率的模拟清楚地说明了离散共振的重要性,在运输的角动量从酒吧的晕。

英文摘要:

We examine the bar instability in galactic models with an exponential disk and a cuspy dark matter (DM) halo with a Navarro-Frenk-White (NFW) cosmological density profile. We construct equilibrium models from a 3-integral composite distribution function that are subject to the bar instability. We generate a sequence of models with a range of mass resolution from 1.8K to 18M particles in the disk and 10K to 100M particles in the halo along with a multi-mass model with an effective resolution of ~10^10 particles. We describe how mass resolution affects the bar instability, including its linear growth phase, the buckling instability, pattern speed decay through the resonant transfer of angular momentum to the DM halo, and the possible destruction of the halo cusp. Our higher resolution simulations show a converging spectrum of discrete resonance interactions between the bar and DM halo orbits. As the pattern speed decays, orbital resonances sweep through most of the DM halo phase space and widely distribute angular momentum among the halo particles. The halo does not develop a flat density core and preserves the cusp, except in the region dominated by gravitational softening. The formation of the bar increases the central stellar density and the DM is compressed adiabatically increasing the halo central density by 1.7X. Overall, the evolution of the bar displays a convergent behavior for halo particle numbers between 1M and 10M particles, when comparing bar growth, pattern speed evolution, the DM halo density profile and a nonlinear analysis of the orbital resonances. Higher resolution simulations clearly illustrate the importance of discrete resonances in transporting the angular momentum from the bar to the halo.
