活动星系核的吸积环境

Accretion environments of active galactic nuclei

Hajime Inoue

摘要:

本文研究了超大质量黑洞在环核区漫游并通过那里的星际介质时活动星系核的吸积环境。预计星际物质将发生Bondi-Hoyle-Lyttleton型吸积,并从尾激波区出现被黑洞引力场捕获的物质吸积流。由于被困物质很可能具有一定量的特定角动量,吸积流最终在黑洞周围形成吸积环。最近的研究表明,吸积环由一个厚的包层和一个薄的核组成,在包层和核中,角动量分别从面向黑洞的内侧转移到对侧。结果是,从包层向外延伸出厚的吸积流和排泄流,从核向外延伸出薄的吸积盘和排泄盘。薄的排泄盘预计在一定距离处终止形成排泄环,而厚的排泄流被认为是流向无穷远的超音速风。来自吸积环的厚的排泄流预期与朝向吸积环的吸积流相互作用并且被准直成双极锥。这些照片提供了一个可能的指导方针来解释从观测建议的整体吸积环境。

英文摘要:

We study accretion environments of active galactic nuclei when a super-massive black hole wanders in a circum-nuclear region and passes through an interstellar medium there. It is expected that a Bondi-Hoyle-Lyttleton type accretion of the interstellar matter takes place and an accretion stream of matter trapped by the black hole gravitational field appears from a tail shock region. Since the trapped matter is likely to have a certain amount of specific angular momentum, the accretion stream eventually forms an accretion ring around the black hole. According to the recent study, the accretion ring consists of a thick envelope and a thin core, and angular momenta are transfered from the inner side facing to the black hole to the opposite side respectively in the envelope and the core. As a result, a thick accretion flow and a thick excretion flow extend from the envelope, and a thin accretion disk and a thin excretion disk do from the core. The thin excretion disk is predicted to terminate at some distance forming an excretion ring, while the thick excretion flow is considered to become a super-sonic wind flowing to the infinity. The thick excretion flow from the accretion ring is expected to interact with the accretion stream toward the accretion ring and to be collimated to bi-polar cones. These pictures provide a likely guide line to interpret the overall accretion environments suggested from observations.
