摘要:

双星与其他天体之间的多体动力学相互作用是星团演化的主要驱动机制之一。因此,将我们对三体相互作用的理解拓展到常用的点粒子近似之外具有重要意义。为此,本文利用移动网格流体力学程序AREPO,研究星-黑洞(BH)双星与单星之间三体交会的流体动力学过程,重点识别最终结果及其长期演化和观测性质。这类交会会产生五种结果:恒星瓦解、恒星碰撞、对原双星的弱扰动、双星成员交换以及三体形成。两个决定性参数是双星相位角,它决定哪两个天体在第一次最近接近时相遇;以及碰撞参数,它划定剧烈相互作用与非剧烈相互作用之间的边界。当碰撞参数小于双星的半长轴时,如果黑洞与入射恒星首先相遇,潮汐瓦解和恒星-黑洞碰撞会频繁发生;而如果两颗恒星首先相遇,则两颗恒星大多会并合。在这两种情况下,黑洞都会以超爱丁顿速率从吸积盘吸积物质,可能产生亮度足以被观测到的耀发。恒星碰撞产物要么与黑洞形成双星,要么保持不与黑洞束缚。碰撞后,并合恒星比同质量、相近年龄的主序星更热、更大。即使在恢复热平衡状态之后,如果处于孤立状态,恒星碰撞产物在成为巨星之前仍会比主序星更热、更亮。

英文摘要:

Multi-body dynamical interactions of binaries with other objects are one of the main driving mechanisms for the evolution of star clusters. It is thus important to bring our understanding of three-body interactions beyond the commonly employed point-particle approximation. To this end we here investigate the hydrodynamics of three-body encounters between star-black hole (BH) binaries and single stars, focusing on the identification of final outcomes and their long-term evolution and observational properties, using the moving-mesh hydrodynamics code AREPO. This type of encounters produces five types of outcomes: stellar disruption, stellar collision, weak perturbation of the original binary, binary member exchange, and triple formation. The two decisive parameters are the binary phase angle, which determines which two objects meet at the first closest approach, and the impact parameter, which sets the boundary between violent and non-violent interactions. When the impact parameter is smaller than the semimajor axis of the binary, tidal disruptions and star-BH collisions frequently occur when the BH and the incoming star first meet, while the two stars mostly merge when the two stars meet first instead. In both cases, the BHs accrete from an accretion disk at super-Eddington rates, possibly generating flares luminous enough to be observed. The stellar collision products either form a binary with the BH or remain unbound to the BH. Upon collision, the merged stars are hotter and larger than main sequence stars of the same mass at similar age. Even after recovering their thermal equilibrium state, stellar collision products, if isolated, would remain hotter and brighter than main sequence stars until becoming giants.
