冷暗物质晕中卫星破裂的动力学

The dynamics of satellite disruption in cold dark matter haloes

Jun-Hwan Choi, Martin D. Weinberg, Neal Katz

摘要:

我们利用基于宇宙学初始条件的N体模拟研究了冷暗物质宿主晕中潮汐加热和卫星破裂的物理机制。我们的共振冲击和共振力矩与主机晕卫星加热的重要性。共振冲击(扭矩)将卫星在其轨道上的径向(切向)运动耦合到其相空间。对于圆形轨道上的卫星,类ILR共振主导加热,这种加热导致卫星质量持续损失。我们估计的要求,模拟实现这些动态微扰理论。共振冲击和共振扭矩都会影响偏心轨道上的卫星。我们证明,卫星质量损失是一个由外向内的过程中的能量空间,卫星的恒星和气体,从而保护自己的光环潮汐剥离。我们模拟了一个类似于银河系暗物质晕中大麦云(LMC)的晕的演化,并得出结论,大麦哲伦星云的恒星还没有被剥离。最后,我们提出了一个简单的算法估计卫星质量的演变,包括冲击加热和谐振力矩。

英文摘要:

We investigate the physical mechanisms of tidal heating and satellite disruption in cold dark matter host haloes using N-body simulations based on cosmological initial conditions. We show the importance of resonant shocks and resonant torques with the host halo to satellite heating. A resonant shock (torque) couples the radial (tangential) motion of a satellite in its orbit to its phase space. For a satellite on a circular orbit, an ILR-like resonance dominates the heating and this heating results in continuous satellite mass loss. We estimate the requirements for simulations to achieve these dynamics using perturbation theory. Both resonant shocks and resonant torques affect satellites on eccentric orbits. We demonstrate that satellite mass loss is an outside-in process in energy space; a satellite's stars and gas are thus protected by their own halo against tidal stripping. We simulate the evolution of a halo similar to the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) in our Galactic dark matter halo and conclude that the LMC stars have not yet been stripped. Finally, we present a simple algorithm for estimating the evolution of satellite mass that includes both shock heating and resonant torques.
