目的：我们研究了原行星盘演化早期阶段水雪线的特性，特别关注引力不稳定性和尘埃生长对雪线形状与位置的影响。方法：我们采用FEOSAD数值流体动力学代码，在薄盘极限下模拟原行星盘的形成与演化，模拟包含气体、尘埃和挥发物的共同演化，涉及尘埃生长、挥发物相变以及尘埃尺寸相关的不透明度。结果：在研究的盘演化阶段，水雪线位置高度不稳定，盘形成阶段先向外移动，随后盘冷却时向内退缩；盘 midplane 处的形状在盘演化早期引力不稳定阶段严重偏离圆形；一维粘滞盘演化模型中易观测到的生长尘埃、水冰量增加及雪线外侧最大尘埃尺寸增大的现象，在我们的流体动力学模型中仅在引力不稳定性减弱后出现；尘埃生长导致的不透明度变化对水雪线位置有显著影响，与未考虑该效应的模型相比，使雪线更靠近恒星，距离几乎减半。结论：年轻的引力不稳定原行星盘的水雪线形状、位置和特性，与年老的轴对称盘存在差异，我们的结果强调研究盘演化时考虑不透明度对尘埃尺寸依赖性的重要性。
英文摘要
Aims. We investigated the properties of the water snow line during the early stages of disk evolution, paying particular attention to the effects of gravitational instability and dust growth on the snow line's shape and position. Methods. We used the FEOSAD numerical hydrodynamics code to simulate the disk formation and evolution in the thin-disk limit. The simulations incorporate the coevolution of gas, dust, and volatiles, including dust growth, volatile phase transitions, and dust-size-dependent opacities. Results. The position of the water snow line is highly nonsteady during the considered disk evolution period, first moving outward during the disk build-up and then retreating back as the disk cools. Its form in the disk midplane deviates strongly from a circular shape in the early gravitationally unstable phase of disk evolution. An increase in the amounts of grown dust and water ice as well as in the maximum dust size just beyond the snow line, as is readily observed in one-dimensional viscous disk evolution models, in our hydrodynamic models occurs only after gravitational instability diminishes. Dust-growth-induced opacity changes have a profound effect on the position of the water snow line, shifting it closer to the star by almost a factor of two compared to models that do not take this effect into account. Conclusions. The shape, position, and properties of the water snow line in young, gravitationally unstable disks differ from those of older, axisymmetric disks. Our results highlight the importance of taking into account the dependence of opacity on dust size when studying disk evolution.
