摘要:

介绍了一种新的研究新生恒星吸积动力学的实验装置。它利用了通过将激光产生的膨胀等离子体耦合到$2\times 10^{5}~{G}\ (20~{T})$外部施加的磁场而产生的磁准直流。该流被用作吸积柱,并被发射到模仿恒星表面的障碍物目标上。这种装置已被用来详细研究吸积动力学,如[G. Revet等人,Science Advances 3,e1700982(2017),arXiv:1708.02528}。在这里,流的特性进行了详细说明,并提出了实验等离子体膨胀和一维绝热膨胀模型之间的联系。为了表征实验流动及其与理想MHD制度的接近程度,还计算了无量纲数。我们建立了一个桥梁,我们的实验等离子体动力学和一个发生在经典金牛T星(CTTS),我们发现,我们的设置是一个高等离子体$β$ CTTS吸积的情况下代表。

英文摘要:

A new experimental set-up designed to investigate the accretion dynamics in newly born stars is presented. It takes advantage of a magnetically collimated stream produced by coupling a laser-generated expanding plasma to a $2\times 10^{5}~{G}\ (20~{T})$ externally applied magnetic field. The stream is used as the accretion column and is launched onto an obstacle target that mimics the stellar surface. This setup has been used to investigate in details the accretion dynamics, as reported in [G. Revet et al., Science Advances 3, e1700982 (2017), arXiv:1708.02528}. Here, the characteristics of the stream are detailed and a link between the experimental plasma expansion and a 1D adiabatic expansion model is presented. Dimensionless numbers are also calculated in order to characterize the experimental flow and its closeness to the ideal MHD regime. We build a bridge between our experimental plasma dynamics and the one taking place in the Classical T Tauri Stars (CTTSs), and we find that our set-up is representative of a high plasma $β$ CTTS accretion case.
