摘要:

利用轴对称广义相对论粒子模拟方法,从第一性原理出发研究了无碰撞等离子体在旋转黑洞上的吸积。我们进行了并排的比较,这些结果类似的广义相对论磁流体动力学模拟。虽然有许多相似之处,在整体流动动力学,动力学和流体模拟之间的三个关键区别。在我们的动力学方法中,磁重联是更有效的,并迅速加速非热粒子群。此外,在动力学模拟等离子体开发显着偏离热平衡,包括压力各向异性,激发动力学尺度的不稳定性,和一个大的字段对齐的热通量接近自由流值的地平线附近。我们讨论了我们的结果的影响建模事件视界尺度观测的Sgr A* 和M87的重力和事件视界望远镜。

英文摘要:

We study the accretion of collisionless plasma onto a rotating black hole from first principles using axisymmetric general-relativistic particle-in-cell simulations. We carry out a side-by-side comparison of these results to analogous general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations. Although there are many similarities in the overall flow dynamics, three key differences between the kinetic and fluid simulations are identified. Magnetic reconnection is more efficient, and rapidly accelerates a nonthermal particle population, in our kinetic approach. In addition, the plasma in the kinetic simulations develops significant departures from thermal equilibrium, including pressure anisotropy that excites kinetic-scale instabilities, and a large field-aligned heat flux near the horizon that approaches the free-streaming value. We discuss the implications of our results for modeling event-horizon scale observations of Sgr A* and M87 by GRAVITY and the Event Horizon Telescope.
