半分离双星系统吸积盘的磁场结构

Magnetic-Field Structure in the Accretion Disks of Semi-Detached Binary Systems

A. G. Zhilkin, D. V. Bisikalo

摘要:

利用三维MHD数值模拟结果研究了半分离双星系统吸积盘中磁场结构的特征。假设吸积星的内禀磁场是偶极的。考虑了圆盘中磁场的湍流扩散。SS Cyg系统被认为是一个例子。数值模拟的结果表明,在吸积盘中产生了强烈的环形磁场。在盘中形成具有明确定义的环向磁场结构的磁区,磁区被电流片隔开,电流片中存在磁重联和电流耗散。这种结构可能的观测表现进行了讨论。结果表明,螺旋旋进波与吸积体磁层的相互作用可以导致吸积速率的准周期振荡。

英文摘要:

The results of three-dimensional MHD numerical simulations are used to investigate the characteristic properties of the magnetic-field structures in the accretion disks of semi-detached binary systems. It is assumed that the intrinsic magnetic field of the accretor star is dipolar. Turbulent diffusion of the magnetic field in the disk is taken into account. The SS Cyg system is considered as an example. The results of the numerical simulations show the intense generation of a predominantly toroidal magnetic field in the accretion disk. Magnetic zones with well defined structures for the toroidal magnetic field form in the disk, which are separated by current sheets in which there is magnetic reconnection and current dissipation. Possible observational manifestations of such structures are discussed. It is shown that the interaction of a spiral precessional wave with the accretor's magnetosphere could lead to quasi-periodic oscillations of the accretion rate.
