摘要:

如果考虑到大尺度射流受到潜在的高度破坏性的三维(3D)开尔文-亥姆霍兹不稳定性,则FRII源中射流的稳定传播是显著的。数值模拟可以解决这个问题,并帮助澄清这种显着稳定性的原因。继以前的研究在二维(2D)的相对论性流动的稳定性,这是我们的目标是测试和扩展这些作品的结论,以三维。我们提出了数值模拟的3D,剪切,相对论性流动的稳定性研究。这项工作使用了一个完全并行化的代码Ratpenat,在3D中求解相对论流体动力学方程。本模拟的结果证实了那些在2D。我们的结论是剪切相对论流的共振模式的增长可能是重要的解释河外喷流的长期准直。

英文摘要:

The stable propagation of jets in FRII sources is remarkable if one takes into account that large-scale jets are subjected to potentially highly disruptive three-dimensional (3D) Kelvin-Helmholtz instabilities. Numerical simulations can address this problem and help clarify the causes of this remarkable stability. Following previous studies of the stability of relativistic flows in two dimensions (2D), it is our aim to test and extend the conclusions of such works to three dimensions. We present numerical simulations for the study of the stability properties of 3D, sheared, relativistic flows. This work uses a fully parallelized code Ratpenat that solves equations of relativistic hydrodynamics in 3D. The results of the present simulations confirm those in 2D. We conclude that the growth of resonant modes in sheared relativistic flows could be important in explaining the long-term collimation of extragalactic jets.
