星系中的Cosmic-ray驱动发电机

Cosmic-ray driven dynamo in galaxies

Michał Hanasz, Dominik Wóltański, Kacper Kowalik, Hanna Kotarba

摘要:

介绍了由Parker(1992)提出的宇宙线驱动发电机的全球银河尺度数值模型的最新进展。本文对由气体、磁场和CR分量组成的星际介质动力学进行了一系列直接CR+MHD数值模拟。我们考虑到CR加速随机分布的超新星(SN)遗迹,并假设SNe存款小规模,随机取向,偶极磁场到ISM。大尺度磁场的放大时间尺度产生的CR驱动发电机是可比的银河系旋转周期。该过程有效地将SN残余物的小尺度磁场转换成银河系尺度的磁场。由此产生的磁场结构类似于在边缘星系中观察到的X形磁场。

英文摘要:

We present recent developments of global galactic-scale numerical models of the Cosmic Ray (CR) driven dynamo, which was originally proposed by Parker (1992). We conduct a series of direct CR+MHD numerical simulations of the dynamics of the interstellar medium (ISM), composed of gas, magnetic fields and CR components. We take into account CRs accelerated in randomly distributed supernova (SN) remnants, and assume that SNe deposit small-scale, randomly oriented, dipolar magnetic fields into the ISM. The amplification timescale of the large-scale magnetic field resulting from the CR-driven dynamo is comparable to the galactic rotation period. The process efficiently converts small-scale magnetic fields of SN-remnants into galactic-scale magnetic fields. The resulting magnetic field structure resembles the X-shaped magnetic fields observed in edge-on galaxies.
