盘状星系中的暗物质晕和棒的演化:变化的气体分数和气体空间分辨率

Dark Matter Halos and Evolution of Bars in Disk Galaxies: Varying Gas Fraction and Gas Spatial Resolution

Jorge Villa-Vargas, Isaac Shlosman, Clayton Heller

摘要:

我们进行了数值实验,通过不断发展的气体/恒星盘嵌入在活的暗物质晕,旨在量化的气体空间分辨率和气体含量的酒吧演变的效果。利用不同的分辨率构造了模型序列,沿每个序列的气体含量在fgas=0%-50%范围内变化,保持盘和晕的性质不变。我们发现,随着“fgas”的增加,空间分辨率变得重要。对于更高分辨率的模型序列,我们观察到的双峰行为酒吧的演化相对于气体分数,特别是在长期阶段的演变。从贫气到富气的转换是突然的,取决于所用的分辨率。发散的演变已被观察到几乎所有的基本参数表征酒吧,如酒吧的强度,中心质量浓度,垂直屈曲幅度,尺寸等,我们发现,气体成分的存在严重限制了酒吧的增长,并影响其模式的速度演变。贫气体模型显示快速减速的条,而富气体模型显示具有恒定或甚至缓慢加速翻滚的条。富气模型在任何时候都有棒共转(CR)半径,在贫气和纯恒星盘的情况下。对于富气模型,CR与棒的尺寸比小于2。我们已经证实,在CR内的磁盘角动量保持不变的气体贫乏的模型,只要CR留在磁盘,但经历了急剧下降,然后在富含气体的模型趋于平稳。最后,我们讨论了一些观察到的模拟酒吧的各种参数之间的相关性,例如,棒的尺寸和含气率、棒的强度和屈曲幅度、棒的强度和棒的尺寸等。

英文摘要:

We conduct numerical experiments by evolving gaseous/stellar disks embedded in live dark matter halos aiming at quantifying the effect of gas spatial resolution and gas content on the bar evolution. Model sequences have been constructed using different resolution, and gas fraction has been varied along each sequence within fgas=0%-50%, keeping the disk and halo properties unchanged. We find that the spatial resolution becomes important with an increase in `fgas'. For the higher resolution model sequences, we observe a bimodal behavior in the bar evolution with respect to the gas fraction, especially during the secular phase of this evolution. The switch from the gas-poor to gas-rich behavior is abrupt and depends on the resolution used. The diverging evolution has been observed in nearly all basic parameters characterizing bars, such as the bar strength, central mass concentration, vertical buckling amplitude, size, etc. We find that the presence of the gas component severely limits the bar growth and affects its pattern speed evolution. Gas-poor models display rapidly decelerating bars, while gas-rich models exhibit bars with constant or even slowly accelerating tumbling. The gas-rich models have bar corotation (CR) radii within the disk at all times, in constrast with gas-poor and purely stellar disks. The CR-to-bar size ratio is less than 2 for gas rich-models. We have confirmed that the disk angular momentum within the CR remains unchanged in the gas-poor models, as long as the CR stays within the disk, but experiences a sharp drop before leveling off in the gas-rich models. Finally, we discuss a number of observed correlations between various parameters of simulated bars, e.g., bar sizes and gas fractions, bar strength and buckling amplitude, bar strength and its size, etc.
