Ye Shen

AI总结:

本文将广义相对论处理扩展到热电动势驱动的成对等离子体快速磁重联模型,分析引力与运动观测者效应,指出局域重联性质不受引力显著影响,但相对实验室运动的观测不可忽略修正。

摘要:

为了弄清磁重联过程的性质,人们提出了许多理论模型,其中 Sweet-Parker 模型最为著名,因为它以简洁的方式描述磁重联。然而,该模型所预期的低重联率在大多数天体物理系统中通常并不存在,这促使人们寻求快速重联模型。在针对成对等离子体的广义磁流体动力学(MHD)框架下,研究者建立了一种快速磁重联模型,其中热电动势发挥关键作用,可显著提高重联率。在本工作中,我希望将此前关于 Sweet-Parker 模型的广义相对论描述的讨论,扩展到由热电动势诱导的快速磁重联的描述。我将首先简要回顾快速重联模型以展开讨论,并展示热电动势如何影响重联率。接下来,在讨论具体示例之前,我会给出一些基本设定;这些示例涉及快速磁重联的性质如何被引力效应改变,或在观测中如何被改变。本工作的结果巩固了我在此前工作中反复强调的观点:如果磁重联过程发生在局域尺度上,其性质绝不会被引力效应显著改变;但当该过程被一个相对于实验室运动的观察者探测时,性质的改变不可忽略,而磁重联正是发生在实验室的静止参考系中。

英文摘要:

Many theoretical models were come up with to figure out the properties of magnetic reconnection process, among which the Sweet-Parker model is the most famous since it describes the magnetic reconnection in a concise way. However, the low reconnection rate expected by this model is generally not available in most astrophysical systems, which motivates people to seek fast reconnection models. Under the scheme of generalized magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) for pair plasma, a fast magnetic reconnection model was established, in which the thermal electromotive force plays a key role to remarkably increase the reconnection rate. In this work, I would like to extend the discussions in my previous work, about the generally relativistic description of Sweet-Parker model, to the description of fast magnetic reconnection induced by thermal electromotive force. I will revisit the fast reconnection model briefly to initialize my discussions and show how the thermal electromotive force impacts the reconnection rate. Next, some basic setups will be exhibited before discussing specific examples about how the properties of fast magnetic reconnection are modified by gravitational effect or in observations. Results in this work consolidate my opinion reiterated in my previous work that properties of magnetic reconnection would never be modified by gravitational effect significantly if the magnetic reconnection process occurs in a local scale while the modifications of properties could not be neglected when the process is detected by an observer who is moving with respect to the laboratory, in the rest frame of which the magnetic reconnection occurs.
