摘要:

在本文中,我们专注于建设恒星流出模型出现在赤道地区的磁层所包围的极冕洞型区域在静态吸积阶段。这些模型是基于初始解析解。我们采用了一个与时间无关的轴对称MHD方程,它有效地描述了一个喷流起源于一个恒星的日冕的自相似解决方案。我们适当地修改这个解决方案,以纳入物理上一致的恒星磁层。我们发现,封闭的场线区域可能会表现出不同的行为取决于相关的边界条件和热通量的分布。然而,恒星喷流在所有的最终平衡态是非常相似的分析中规定的初始条件。当初始净热通量保持不变时,磁层表现为动态的头盔状流,并伴随着准稳态的慢磁层风。由于没有热通量,赤道周围形成一个小的死区,周围环绕着一个弱流光,这是低质量通量磁层喷射的来源。当冕洞较大并延伸到减小的闭合场线静态区时,发现了没有流光和头盔形死区的平衡。这项研究表明,自相似解决方案的鲁棒性和他们的能力,提供准稳态射流模拟与现实的边界和赤道磁层包围。

英文摘要:

In this paper we focus on the construction of stellar outflow models emerging from a polar coronal hole-type region surrounded by a magnetosphere in the equatorial regions during phases of quiescent accretion. The models are based on initial analytical solutions. We adopt a meridionally self-similar solution of the time-independent and axisymmetric MHD equations which describes effectively a jet originating from the corona of a star. We modify appropriately this solution in order to incorporate a physically consistent stellar magnetosphere. We find that the closed fieldline region may exhibit different behaviour depending on the associated boundary conditions and the distribution of the heat flux. However, the stellar jet in all final equilibrium states is very similar to the analytical one prescribed in the initial conditions. When the initial net heat flux is maintained, the magnetosphere takes the form of a dynamical helmet streamer with a quasi steady state slow magnetospheric wind. With no heat flux, a small dead zone forms around the equator, surrounded by a weak streamer, source of a low mass flux magnetospheric ejection. An equilibrium with no streamer and a helmet shaped dead zone is found when the coronal hole is larger and extends up to a reduced closed fieldline static zone. The study demonstrates the robustness of self-similar solutions and their ability to provide quasi-steady jet simulations with realistic boundaries and surrounded by equatorial magnetospheres.
