在密集星团中失控恒星碰撞的开始- II。三体相互作用的流体力学

On the onset of runaway stellar collisions in dense star clusters - II. Hydrodynamics of three-body interactions

Evghenii Gaburov, James Lombardi, Simon Portegies Zwart

摘要:

在年轻星团中,失控恒星碰撞的开始更有可能是由双星和第三颗恒星之间的相遇而不是两颗恒星之间的相遇引发的。使用这样的三星直接$N$体模拟遇到的初始条件,我们模拟所产生的相互作用的平滑粒子流体动力学(SPH)。我们发现,在大多数情况下,所有三个恒星合并在一起,在这样的三个恒星合并,流体动力学模拟显示:(1)质量损失作为喷出物可以在系统中的总质量的相当大的一部分(高达$\sim25$ %);(2)由于不对称的质量损失,碰撞产物有时可以获得超过10 km/s的反冲速度,大到足以允许碰撞产物逸出团簇的核心;以及(3)喷射物质的能量可以大到足以(高达$\sim 3\times 10^{50}$ erg)去除或干扰团簇间气体。

英文摘要:

The onset of runaway stellar collisions in young star clusters is more likely to initiate with an encounter between a binary and a third star than between two single stars. Using the initial conditions of such three-star encounters from direct $N$-body simulations, we model the resulting interaction by means of Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH). We find that, in the majority of the cases considered, all three stars merge together, and in such three star mergers, the hydrodynamic simulations reveal that: (1) mass lost as ejecta can be a considerable fraction of the total mass in the system (up to $\sim25$%); (2) due to asymmetric mass loss, the collision product can sometimes receive a kick velocity that exceeds 10 km/s, large enough to allow the collision product to escape the core of the cluster; and (3) the energy of the ejected matter can be large enough (up to $\sim 3\times 10^{50}$ erg) to remove or disturb the inter cluster gas appreciably.
