来自光学薄吸积流的动力学和辐射功率

Kinetic and radiative power from optically thin accretion flows

A. Sadowski, M. Gaspari

摘要:

利用广义相对论辐射磁流体动力学模拟(GR-RMHD)研究了非旋转黑洞吸积从辐射低效态到有效态的转变.我们研究离子电子温度比范围从$T_{\rm i}/T_{\rm e}=10$到$100$,并模拟流对应的吸积率低至$10^{-6}\dot M_{\rm Edd}$,高达$10^{-2}\dot M_{\rm Edd}$。我们发现,吸积流的辐射输出随吸积率的增加而增加,并且对于较热的电子(较低的$T_{\rm i}/T_{\rm e}$比率),跃迁发生得较早。同时,即使在最高的模拟吸积率下,机械效率也几乎没有变化,并占吸积静止质量能流的${\approx}\,3\%$。这对于AGN的机械反馈调节大质量星系、星系团和星系团尤为重要。与最近对活动星系核辐射和机械光度的观测结果进行比较表明,内部无碰撞吸积流中的离子与电子温度比应落在$10<T_{\rm i}/T_{\rm e}<30$范围内,即,电子温度应该是离子温度的百分之几。

英文摘要:

We perform a set of general relativistic, radiative, magneto-hydrodynamical simulations (GR-RMHD) to study the transition from radiatively inefficient to efficient state of accretion on a non-rotating black hole. We study ion to electron temperature ratios ranging from $T_{\rm i}/T_{\rm e}=10$ to $100$, and simulate flows corresponding to accretion rates as low as $10^{-6}\dot M_{\rm Edd}$, and as high as $10^{-2}\dot M_{\rm Edd}$. We have found that the radiative output of accretion flows increases with accretion rate, and that the transition occurs earlier for hotter electrons (lower $T_{\rm i}/T_{\rm e}$ ratio). At the same time, the mechanical efficiency hardly changes and accounts to ${\approx}\,3\%$ of the accreted rest mass energy flux, even at the highest simulated accretion rates. This is particularly important for the mechanical AGN feedback regulating massive galaxies, groups, and clusters. Comparison with recent observations of radiative and mechanical AGN luminosities suggests that the ion to electron temperature ratio in the inner, collisionless accretion flow should fall within $10<T_{\rm i}/T_{\rm e}<30$, i.e., the electron temperature should be several percent of the ion temperature.
