来自小尺度磁场的大喷流

Large jets from small-scale magnetic fields

R. Moll

摘要:

我们考虑的条件下,一个旋转的磁性物体可以产生一个磁动力流出的初始未磁化的重力分层介质。三维MHD模拟中,局部的,弧形磁场的足迹被投入旋转。它示出了如何在产生准直的磁动力流出的有效性取决于旋转速率,强度和几何形状的字段。均匀旋转,非轴对称领域产生的流动被发现主要由浮力羽流加热的旋转能量耗散。如果场和旋转表面被布置成使得产生环形磁场,则形成准直的磁动力流。这需要拱廊的足点的差动旋转。这样的射流是准直良好的,我们遵循他们的传播通过分层的大气超过100倍的源大小。磁场是紧密缠绕的,并且其传播由非轴对称不稳定性的发展主导。在最长的模拟中,我们观察到超过75%的坡印廷通量转换效率。讨论了该模型在星载SAR模型和原恒星喷流中的应用。

英文摘要:

We consider the conditions under which a rotating magnetic object can produce a magnetically powered outflow in an initially unmagnetized medium stratified under gravity. 3D MHD simulations are presented in which the footpoints of localized, arcade-shaped magnetic fields are put into rotation. It is shown how the effectiveness in producing a collimated magnetically powered outflow depends on the rotation rate, the strength and the geometry of the field. The flows produced by uniformly rotating, non-axisymmetric fields are found to consist mainly of buoyant plumes heated by dissipation of rotational energy. Collimated magnetically powered flows are formed if the field and the rotating surface are arranged such that a toroidal magnetic field is produced. This requires a differential rotation of the arcades' footpoints. Such jets are well-collimated; we follow their propagation through the stratified atmosphere over 100 times the source size. The magnetic field is tightly wound and its propagation is dominated by the development of non-axisymmetric instabilities. We observe a Poynting flux conversion efficiency of over 75% in the longest simulations. Applications to the collapsar model and protostellar jets are discussed.
