非理想场解决相对论重联中的注入问题

Non-ideal fields solve the injection problem in relativistic reconnection

Lorenzo Sironi

摘要:

相对论等离子体中的磁重联被公认为是一种快速而有效的粒子加速器,能够解释最引人注目的天体物理耀斑。粒子在细胞模拟,我们证明了非理想领域的粒子加速的早期阶段(“注射”)的重要性。最终具有高能量(接近或高于每个粒子的平均磁能)的大多数粒子必须通过非理想区域,在非理想区域中,理想磁流体动力学的假设被打破(即,具有$E>B$或非零$E_\parallel={\bf E}\cdot {\bf B}/B$的区域),而不经历非理想场的粒子最终具有单位阶的洛伦兹因子。因此,通过非理想场的注入是进一步加速的必要先决条件。我们的研究结果对高能天体物理源中非热粒子的起源具有重要意义。

英文摘要:

Magnetic reconnection in relativistic plasmas is well established as a fast and efficient particle accelerator, capable of explaining the most dramatic astrophysical flares. With particle-in-cell simulations, we demonstrate the importance of non-ideal fields for the early stages ("injection") of particle acceleration. Most of the particles ending up with high energies (near or above the mean magnetic energy per particle) must have passed through non-ideal regions where the assumptions of ideal magnetohydrodynamics are broken (i.e., regions with $E>B$ or nonzero $E_\parallel={\bf E}\cdot {\bf B}/B$), whereas particles that do not experience non-ideal fields end up with Lorentz factors of order unity. Thus, injection by non-ideal fields is a necessary prerequisite for further acceleration. Our results have important implications for the origin of nonthermal particles in high-energy astrophysical sources.
