低粘度椎间盘中的III型迁移

Type III migration in a low viscosity disc

Min-Kai Lin, John C. B. Papaloizou

摘要:

我们研究了低粘度盘中土星质量行星的III型迁移。这颗行星被发现经历轨道半径快速衰减的周期性事件,每次都相当于几个希尔半径。我们发现这是由于存在于圆盘中的大尺度涡旋的散射。的起源和作用的漩涡在第三类迁移的背景下进行了探讨。通过数值模拟和半解析模型表明,由足够大质量的行星引起的螺旋激波将延伸到接近行星轨道半径的地方。跨激波尖端涡度的产生导致薄的高涡度环,其特征宽度为局部尺度高度。对于质量等于或大于土星的行星,光环是延伸整个方位角的共轨特征。线性稳定性分析表明,存在着不稳定的模式,是本地化的局部涡度最小值,与间隙边缘相吻合。模拟结果表明,涡是非线性的结果。我们使用流体动力学模拟来研究涡旋与行星的相互作用。它们的影响存在于运动粘度比通常采用的值v = 10^{-5}Ω_pr_p(0)^2小一个数量级的圆盘中,其中r_p(0)和Ω_p分别是行星的初始轨道半径和角速度。我们发现,粘度的大小会影响III型迁移的性质,但不会影响轨道衰变的程度。还探索了涡旋作为初始圆盘质量的函数的作用,发现涡旋与行星相互作用的一次事件期间轨道衰变的量与初始圆盘质量无关。我们将共轨质量赤字的概念在我们的结果的分析,并将其链接到间隙边缘的旋涡的存在。

英文摘要:

We study the type III migration of a Saturn mass planet in low viscosity discs. The planet is found to experience cyclic episodes of rapid decay in orbital radius, each amounting to a few Hill radii. We find this to be due to the scattering of large- scale vortices present in the disc. The origin and role of vortices in the context of type III migration is explored. It is shown through numerical simulations and semi- analytical modelling that spiral shocks induced by a sufficiently massive planet will extend close to the planet orbital radius. The production of vortensity across shock tips results in thin high vortensity rings with a characteristic width of the local scale height. For planets with masses equal to and above that of Saturn, the rings are co-orbital features extending the entire azimuth. Linear stability analysis show there exists unstable modes that are localised about local vortensity minima which coincide with gap edges. Simulations show that vortices are non-linear a outcome. We used hydrodynamic simulations to examine vortex-planet interactions. Their effect is present in discs with kinematic viscosity less than about an order of magnitude smaller than the typically adopted value of ν= 10^{-5}Ω_pr_p(0)^2, where r_p(0) and Ω_p are the initial orbital radius and angular velocity of the planet respectively. We find that the magnitude of viscosity affects the nature of type III migration but not the extent of the orbital decay. The role of vortices as a function of initial disc mass is also explored and it is found that the amount of orbital decay during one episode of vortex-planet interaction is independent of initial disc mass. We incorporate the concept of the co-orbital mass deficit in the analysis of our results and link it to the presence of vortices at gap edges.
