摘要:

低质量和中等质量恒星的晚期演化阶段的特征是通过尘埃驱动的恒星风进行质量损失。最近的观测揭示了这些风中的复杂结构,据信主要是通过与伴星的相互作用形成的。这些复杂性是如何产生的,以及哪些结构形成于哪种类型的系统中,仍然知之甚少。特别是,有一个缺乏研究调查的结构形成偏心系统。我们的目标是提高我们的理解偏心AGB二进制系统的风形态的机制,负责不同的小尺度结构和全球形态,出现在一个多变的风与不同的速度。使用平滑粒子流体动力学(SPH)代码幻影,我们产生九个不同的高分辨率,3D模拟的AGB星与太阳质量的同伴与各种风速和偏心率的组合。该模型假设多方气体,没有额外的冷却。我们的结论是,对于具有高风速的模型,与同伴的短相互作用导致规则的螺旋形态,即扁平。在风速较低的情况下,较强的相互作用导致形成高能量区域和弓形激波结构,如果出现不稳定性,这些结构可以将风塑造成不规则的形态。高偏心率模型显示了复杂的,相位相关的相互作用,导致风结构是不规则的三维。然而,与伴星的显著相互作用将物质压缩成赤道密度增强,而与偏心率无关。

英文摘要:

The late evolutionary stages of low- and intermediate-mass stars are characterised by mass loss through a dust-driven stellar wind. Recent observations reveal complex structures within these winds, that are believed to be formed primarily via interaction with a companion. How these complexities arise, and which structures are formed in which type of systems, is still poorly understood. Particularly, there is a lack of studies investigating the structure formation in eccentric systems. We aim to improve our understanding of the wind morphology of eccentric AGB binary systems by investigating the mechanism responsible for the different small-scale structures and global morphologies that arise in a polytropic wind with different velocities. Using the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) code Phantom, we generate nine different high-resolution, 3D simulations of an AGB star with a solar-mass companion with various wind velocity and eccentricity combinations. The models assume a polytropic gas, with no additional cooling. We conclude that for models with a high wind velocity, the short interaction with the companion results in a regular spiral morphology, that is flattened. In the case of a lower wind velocity, the stronger interaction results in the formation of a high-energy region and bow-shock structure that can shape the wind into an irregular morphology if instabilities arise. High-eccentricity models show a complex, phase-dependent interaction leading to wind structures that are irregular in three dimensions. However, the significant interaction with the companion compresses matter into an equatorial density enhancement, irrespective of eccentricity.
