摘要:

最近的观测表明,直接撞击的大陵五系统U CrB和RS Vul拥有位于轨道平面之外的气体,包括U CrB中的倾斜吸积盘。对RS Vul中质量供体周围的拱星气体的观测表明,磁效应可能是导致吸积流偏离轨道平面的原因,导致倾斜的圆盘。为了确定是否倾斜的光盘是可能的,由于偏转流,我们使用RS Vul的传质过程的三维流体动力学模拟。通过使流偏离轨道平面45度并将流的速度提高到30马赫,我们模拟了L1附近的磁活动的影响。我们发现,修改后的流参数改变了系统的直接影响的性质。这股气流没有经过恒星的表面,形成了一个轻微扭曲的吸积盘,盘的倾斜度不超过3度。偏转流的流盘相互作用迫使大量材料高于轨道平面,从而急剧增加平面外流动。绘制速度空间中的H-α发射率,使我们能够比较我们的结果与层析观测。与未偏转的情况相比,偏转和提升流将平面外流的每个z速度切片中的发射率增加至少三个和多达八个数量级。我们的结论是,偏转流是一个可行的机制,用于产生强大的平面外流动中看到的断层图像的U CrB和RS Vul。

英文摘要:

Recent observations have shown that the direct-impact Algol systems U CrB and RS Vul possess gas located outside of the orbital plane, including a tilted accretion disc in U CrB. Observations of circumstellar gas surrounding the mass donor in RS Vul suggest magnetic effects could be responsible for deflecting the accretion stream out of the orbital plane, resulting in a tilted disc. To determine whether a tilted disc is possible due to a deflected stream, we use three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations of the mass transfer process in RS Vul. By deflecting the stream 45 degrees out of the orbital plane and boosting the magnitude of the stream's velocity to Mach 30, we mimic the effects of magnetic activity near L1. We find that the modified stream parameters change the direct-impact nature of the system. The stream misses the surface of the star, and a slightly warped accretion disc forms with no more than 3 degrees of disc tilt. The stream-disc interaction for the deflected stream forces a large degree of material above the orbital plane, increasing the out-of-plane flow drastically. Plotting the H-alpha emissivity in velocity space allows us to compare our results with tomographic observations. Deflecting and boosting the stream increases the emissivity in each z-velocity slice of the out-of-plane flow by at least three and up to eight orders of magnitude compared to the undeflected case. We conclude that a deflected stream is a viable mechanism for producing the strong out-of-plane flows seen in the tomographic images of U CrB and RS Vul.
