模拟银河系的挑战

The Challenge of Modelling Galactic Disks

Andreas Burkert

摘要:

星系盘形成和演化的详细模型需要了解盘星系形成的初始条件、影响其长期演化的边界条件以及驱动多相星际介质和调节恒星形成历史的微物理过程。不幸的是,到目前为止,这些成分中的大多数仍然知之甚少。因此,挑战在于,尽管有这个警告,但要构建具有预测能力的星系盘的现实模型。本文将对银盘形成和演化的数值模拟中的一些问题进行简要的综述。

英文摘要:

Detailed models of galactic disk formation and evolution require knowledge about the initial conditions under which disk galaxies form, the boundary conditions that affect their secular evolution and the micro-physical processes that drive the multi-phase interstellar medium and regulate the star formation history. Unfortunately, up to now, most of these ingredients are still poorly understood. The challenge therefore is to, despite this caveat, construct realistic models of galactic disks with predictive power. This short review will summarize some problems related to numerical simulations of galactic disk formation and evolution.
