银河系磁场的新知识

New knowledge of the Galactic magnetic fields

J. L. Han

摘要:

我们银河系的磁场是宇宙射线传输的主要媒介。在过去的十年里,从银河系磁场的测量中获得了许多新的知识。在银盘中,从大量新发现的旋臂星的RM中,沿着旋臂的大尺度磁场被描绘在比以往更大的区域中,在臂和臂间区域中交替方向。在星系晕中的环形场被揭示为在银河平面之上和之下具有相反的方向,这是在晕中操作的A0模式发电机的指示。从脉冲星RM数据获得的大规模领域的强度已被发现以指数方式增加对银河系中心。与小尺度下陡峭的Kolmogorov谱相比,大尺度磁场的空间磁能谱呈现出较浅的破碎。

英文摘要:

The magnetic fields of our Milky Way galaxy are the main agent for cosmic rays to transport. In the last decade, much new knowledge has been gained from measurements of the Galactic magnetic fields. In the Galactic disk, from the RMs of a large number of newly discovered pulsars, the large-scale magnetic fields along the spiral arms have been delineated in a much larger region than ever before, with alternating directions in the arm and interarm regions. The toroidal fields in the Galactic halo were revealed to have opposite directions below and above the Galactic plane, which is an indication of an A0 mode dynamo operating in the halo. The strength of large-scale fields obtained from pulsar RM data has been found to increase exponentially towards the Galactic center. Compared to the steep Kolmogorov spectrum of magnetic energy at small scales, the large-scale magnetic fields show a shallow broken spatial magnetic energy spectrum.
