源至吸积盘磁盘

Source to Accretion Disk Tilt

M. M. Montgomery, E. L. Martin

摘要:

许多不同类型的系统都有逆行岁差,逆行岁差可能是由未对准的吸积盘上次级粒子的潮汐力矩引起的。然而,导致和维持磁盘倾斜的来源是未知的。在这项工作中,我们表明,吸积盘可以倾斜,由于一个力称为电梯。升力是由吸积盘上方和下方不同的气流超音速引起的。因为升力作用在圆盘的压力中心,所以围绕通过圆盘的质心的旋转轴施加扭矩。圆盘对升力的反应是围绕圆盘的节点线俯仰。如果气流流动减弱,那么升力也减弱,并且盘试图返回到其原始取向。在第一近似下,升力并不取决于磁场或辐射源,而是取决于质量和圆盘的表面积。此外,对于要启动的盘倾斜,必须超过最小质量传递速率。例如,围绕0.8 $M_{\odot}$致密中心天体的$10^{-11}M_{\odot}$盘需要大于$\sim10^{-13}$ M $_{\odot}$ yr $^{-1}$的质量转移速率,这个值远低于逆行进动的激变矮新星系统的已知质量转移速率,并且在它们的光变曲线中显示出负的超级驼峰,这个值远低于原恒星形成系统的质量转移速率。

英文摘要:

Many different system types retrogradely precess, and retrograde precession could be from a tidal torque by the secondary on a misaligned accretion disk. However, a source to cause and maintain disk tilt is unknown. In this work, we show that accretion disks can tilt due to a force called lift. Lift results from differing gas stream supersonic speeds over and under an accretion disk. Because lift acts at the disk's center of pressure, a torque is applied around a rotation axis passing through the disk's center of mass. The disk responds to lift by pitching around the disk's line of nodes. If the gas stream flow ebbs, then lift also ebbs and the disk attempts to return to its original orientation. To first approximation, lift does not depend on magnetic fields or radiation sources but does depend on mass and the surface area of the disk. Also, for disk tilt to be initiated, a minimum mass transfer rate must be exceeded. For example, a $10^{-11}M_{\odot}$ disk around a 0.8$M_{\odot}$ compact central object requires a mass transfer rate greater than $\sim10^{-13}$M$_{\odot}$yr$^{-1}$, a value well below known mass transfer rates in Cataclysmic Variable Dwarf Novae systems that retrogradely precess and that exhibit negative superhumps in their light curves and a value well below mass transfer rates in protostellar forming systems.
