磁场和旋转轴不重合的原恒星外流的光滑粒子磁流体动力学模拟

Smoothed particle magnetohydrodynamic simulations of protostellar outflows with misaligned magnetic field and rotation axes

摘要:

我们发展了一种修正形式的光滑粒子磁流体力学方程,它在非常陡的密度梯度存在下是稳定的。使用这种形式主义,我们已经进行了模拟的崩溃磁化分子云核心,形成原恒星和驱动器流出。我们的稳定的形式主义允许更小的下沉粒子(< 5 AU)比以前使用的和调查的影响,改变角度,θ,初始场轴和旋转轴之间。流出的性质强烈地依赖于这个角度:当θ > 30°时,根本不会产生类似射流的流出,并且当θ > 10°时,不会维持准直流出。当θ > 60°时,不会产生任何形式的大量外流。这可能会限制分子云中的磁场的几何形状,在那里可以看到双极流出。

英文摘要:

We have developed a modified form of the equations of smoothed particle magnetohydrodynamics which are stable in the presence of very steep density gradients. Using this formalism, we have performed simulations of the collapse of magnetised molecular cloud cores to form protostars and drive outflows. Our stable formalism allows for smaller sink particles (< 5 AU) than used previously and the investigation of the effect of varying the angle, θ, between the initial field axis and the rotation axis. The nature of the outflows depends strongly on this angle: jet-like outflows are not produced at all when θ > 30°, and a collimated outflow is not sustained when θ > 10°. No substantial outflows of any kind are produced when θ > 60°. This may place constraints on the geometry of the magnetic field in molecular clouds where bipolar outflows are seen.
