1 Lecture 16: Winds, Jets and Outflows HH 212 H 2 (Mc Caughrean & Zinnecker VLT)
2 Losing Material from the Outer Disk Through Photoevaporation
3 Formation & viscous spreading of disk
4 Formation & viscous spreading of disk
5 Formation & viscous spreading of disk
6 Photoevaporation of disks (Very brief) Ionization of disk surface creates surface layer of hot gas. If this temperature exceeds escape velocity, then surface layer evaporates. v esc GM 1/ 2 r Evaporation proceeds for radii beyond: r GM r 2 gr c shii
7 The Edge of The Solar System: Evaporation of Disks by UV Radiation Center of Orion Nebula Hot O and B-type stars produce powerful UV radiation field. Young disk bathed in UV light.
8 Why is there an Edge to the Solar System: Evaporation of Disks by UV Radiation
9 Losing Material from the Inner Disk : through Accretion and Outflow 9
10 Magnetospheric accretion Free-fall and accretion shock From r A down to star: matter is in supersonic free-fall. Accretion shock Free-fall region Near the star the matter gets to a halt in a stand-off shock. r i Shock velocity: v s = 2GM 1 r * r * r i Dissipated energy (=accretion luminosity from shock): L accr = 1 r * G M M r i r *
11 Bipolar outflows Jets originate from inner regions of protoplanetary disks Hubble Space Telescope image
12 Magnetically threaded disks Suppose disk is treaded by magnetic field: Inward motion of gas in disk drags field inward: B-field aquires angle with disk
13 Disk winds Slingshot effect. Blandford & Payne (1982) (courtesy: C. Fendt) Use cylindrical coordinates r,z Gravitational potential: Φ = GM r 2 + z 2 Effective gravitational potential along field line (incl. sling-shot effect): Φ = GM 1 r 0 2 r r r 0 r 2 + z 2
14 Disk winds Blandford & Payne (1982) Φ = GM 1 r 0 2 r r r 0 r 2 + z 2 Critical angle: 60 degrees with disk plane. Beyond that: outflow of matter. Infall Outflow Gas will bend field lines
15 Disk + star: X-wind model of Frank Shu Shu 1994
16 Different kinds of Winds Ferreira, Dougados, Cabrit 2006 Blandford & Payne 1982 Konigl & Pudritz 2000 Shu et al Matt & Pudritz 2005, Configuration favorable for outflows Pirated from talk by Marina Romanova Bunching, α v > α d 18
17 Magnetocentrifugal Winds Romanova et al. 2005; Ustyugova et al. 2006; Romanova et al. 2009
18 Jets or Winds?
19 Wind Blown Cavities
20 Bipolar Outflows driven by Wind Shu et al. 1991
21 Equations for core: Wind Blown Bubble Equations for wind:
22 Wind Blown Bubble
23 Wind Blown Bubble
24 Creating Jets
25 Creating Jets: Magnetic field winding - confinement C. Fendt
26 Magnetic field winding - confinement (courtesy: C. Fendt) j = c 4π B f = 1 c j B Right-hand rule: force points inwards
27 Hydrodynamic confinement in jet: Shock only reduces the velocity component perpendicular to shock front. Therefore obliquely shocked gas is deflected toward the shock plane.
28 Hydrodynamic confinement in jet:
29 Bipolar outflows driven by Jets Swept-up material (molecular outflow) Terminal shock Hydrodynamic confinement? Hot bubble of old jet material Magnetic confinement Magneto-centrifugal launching (<AU scale)
30 Head of the jet: Turbulent mixing between old jet material and swept-up environment (entrainment) Stand-off shock (most of jet energy dissipated here) Contact discontinuity (boundary between jet and external medium) Back flow Bow shock Shocked external medium gas (molecular outflow) Jet flow much faster than propagation of bow shock. Jet material much more tenuous than external medium
31 Most Likely a Combination of Both
32 A Unified Models of Jets and Winds (Shang et al 2006)
33 Rapidly-rotating stars: Propeller regime Poynting Jet Slow Conical Wind Slow Conical Wind Two-component outflow forms Conical winds carry most of matter outwards Poynting jet carries energy and ang. momentum Romanova et al. 2005; Ustyugova et al. 2006; Romanova et al
34 The Propeller Regime Disk radius > Corotation Axis: Magnetic field rotating faster than disk Ustyugova et al. 2006
35 Outflows at the Propeller Stage: Conical Winds + Axial Jet A star spins-down due to axial magnetic jet Pirated from talk by Marina Romanova 23
36 Observed knot movement
37 Observations of Jets and Winds
38 Herbig-Haro Objects Discovered independently by George Herbig and Guillermo Haro in 1950s Small knots of nebulosity in dark clouds Displayed lines of hydrogen and forbidden lines of [OI], [NII] and [SII]. Now known to be shock ionized nebulae. More than 400 Herbig Haro (HH) objects are known. Only trace a small fraction of the outflowing gas
