A model is constructed for the magnetic field of the star HD 187474, which has a very long axial rotation period P = 2345d. It turns out that the structure of the magnetic field is best described by a model of a displaced (Δα = 0.1) dipole inclined to the axis of rotation by an angle β = 24°. The star is inclined to the line of sight by an angle i = 86°. Because of the displaced dipole the magnitude of the magnetic field differs at the poles: Bp = +6300 and 11600 G. A Mercator map of the distribution of the magnetic field over the surface is obtained. The 7 slowly rotating CP stars studied thus far have an average angle β = 62°, which equals the average value for a random orientation of dipoles. __________ Translated from Astrofizika, Vol. 48, No. 4, pp. 575–583 (November 2005).  相似文献

The star HD182255 reveals spectral variability in rotation, irregular short-term variability, as well as long-term variations in the spectra. The He and Si abundances vary in antiphase. According to the theory, silicon accumulates in the regions between the poles, where the field lines are horizontal. Hence the observed behavior of He and Si may indicate the presence of magnetic field, where one of the poles passes through the central meridian in phase Φ = 0 as the star rotates. Given a general weakening of He over the entire surface, in Φ = 0 its abundance is higher, which may be linked with the presence of wind from the magnetic pole. The star definitely belongs to the He-w type. The study of the structure of the upper atmosphere based on the hydrogen line profiles shows that it varies over the years. Our estimates of the magnetic field from the Zeeman spectra are within the measurement errors. According to the spectroscopic characteristics the star can be considered weakly magnetic.  相似文献

Based on the spectropolarimetric data obtained at the 6-m telescope, a study of the magnetic field and physical parameters of the magnetic He-weak star HD 35298 was performed. A comparison of the results of magnetic field measurements by various methods has been carried out. The star’s magnetic field varies in the range from ?3 to +3 kG. The field geometry is explained in terms of the oblique rotator model. The obtained magnetic field variation curve can be described by a central dipole with the dipole axis inclined to the axis of rotation by β = 60°, and the magnetic field strength at the pole of B p = 11.5 kG. The data on the variability of spectral lines of some metals are presented, allowing to make an assumption that the stellar surface is heavily spotted.  相似文献

The presence of hot spots on the surface of T Tau attributable to mass accretion from the protoplanetary disk is shown to have virtually no effect on the accuracy of estimating the magnetic field strength for this star. By comparing the magnetic field strengths for T Tau at the photospheric level measured by various methods, we found that if the angle i at which we see T Tau does not exceed 10°, then the magnetic field of the star could be dipolar with the angle between the dipole axis and the rotation axis of the star ?85°. If, however, it later emerges that i > 10°, its magnetic field is essentially nondipolar and/or nonstationary.  相似文献

Modelling the magnetic field structure in HD49976, we obtained a map of its magnetic field distribution on the surface and its main parameters. Simulating the distribution of Ca and Sr by the phase dependences of the Ca II 3934 Å and Sr II 4215 Å equivalent line widths revealed that their abundances are most likely increased between the magnetic poles. An insufficiently clear result is due to the structure of the magnetic field of HD49976, which proved to be complex, not corresponding to the central dipole. It is modelled by two dipoles, the stronger of them is in the center of the star, and the other, weaker, is at distance of 0.3R * from the center. The synthetic spectrum method yielded abundances of 28 elements in the moments of magnetic field extrema. The carbon and sulfur abundances proved to be close to the solar values, silicon showed a deficit of 1.0 dex, lithium, calcium, iron and the iron peak elements, strontium, rare earths are in excess, especially significant in the case of rare earths. High-resolution spectropolarimetric observations closely covering the entire rotation period are required to investigate the distribution of chemical elements in complex multi-dipole magnetic configurations, applying the Magnetic Doppler Imaging method.  相似文献

We present the results of our analysis of magnetic-field configuration and abundance anomalies on the surface of the rapidly rotating, chemically peculiar helium-strong variable B2 V star HD 37776 with unresolved Zeeman components of spectral lines. Simultaneous inversion of the observed Stokes I and V profiles, which realizes the method of Doppler-Zeeman mapping [1], has been applied for the first time. Spectroscopic observations were carried out with the Main stellar spectrograph of the 6-m Special Astrophysical Observatory telescope equipped with a Zeeman analyzer and a CCD array, which allowed spectra in right-and left-hand circularly polarized light to be taken simultaneously at a signal-to-noise ratio S/N≥200 [2]. The profile width of winged spectral lines (reaching 5 Å) is determined by Zeeman line splitting; however, the observed Zeeman components are blurred and unresolved because of the rapid stellar rotation. When solving the inverse problem, we sought for the magnetic-field configuration in the form of a combination of arbitrarily oriented dipole, quadrupole, and octupole placed at the stellar center. The observed Stokes I and V profiles for eight spectral lines of He, O II, Al III, Si III, and Fe III averaged over the visible stellar surface were used as input data. We constructed a model of the magnetic field from the condition of coincidence of magnetic maps obtained from different lines of different chemical elements and from the condition of a minimum profile residual. This model is a combination of centered coaxial dipole and quadrupole with the dominant quadrupole component at 30°<i<50°, β=40°, and a maximum surface field strength H s=60 kG. A comparison of our abundance maps with the field configuration shows that the He concentration is at a maximum in the regions of maximum radial field, while the maximum concentrations of O, Al, Si, and Fe coincide with the regions of maximum tangential field.  相似文献

Based on observations with the 6-m SAO RAS telescope, we have found that chemically peculiar star with a large depression of the continuum at λ5200 Å and strengthened silicon lines in the spectrum has a strong magnetic field. The longitudinal field component Be has a negative polarity and varies from ?300 G to ?2000 G with a period of 1.756 days. Photometric variations of brightness take place with the same period. We determined the variability of the radial velocity at times of about tens of years pointing to a possible binarity of the object. We have built a magnetic model of this star, determined the inclination angles of the rotation axis to the line of sight i = 20° and of the dipole axis to the rotation axis β = 116°, and the field strength at the pole is Bp = 10 kG. We carried out a chemical composition analysis and found a lack of helium for almost an order of magnitude, some overabundance of silicon and metal elements for more than an order of magnitude, particularly, cobalt for three orders of magnitude.  相似文献

The method of “virtual magnetic charges” is used to analyze the structure of the magnetic field of the CP star HD32633. The phase relation of its magnetic field differs strongly from a sine wave. The structure of the star’s field can be described fairly well by two dipoles located in the opposite regions of the star near its rotation equator. Each of these dipoles produces two pairs of magnetic spots of opposite polarity similar to sunspots. The dipoles are located at a distance of Δa=0.6 R from the center, where R is the radius of the star. The field strength at the poles is equal to ±42 and ±19 kG.  相似文献

Preliminary data on the magnetic field structure of the unique magnetic star HD 45583 are obtained. The observational data are well described by a configuration of two magnetic dipoles located on opposite sides relative to the star’s center, with their axes directed roughly in a radial direction. The positive monopoles are closer to the surface and the negative, closer to the star’s center. For this reason, there appear to be two positive magnetic poles on the star’s surface but no negative poles. The need for further observations of this unique object is pointed out.

We present results of modeling of the sample of magnetic stars. We have obtained such important for magnetic star physics parameters as the mean surface magnetic field Bs, the magnetic field at magnetic poles—Bp, the dipole inclination to the rotation equatorial plane α, and the distance to monopoles from the center of the star Δa. We present some information onmagnetic star physics that helps to understand the derived results better.  相似文献

This is a preliminary study of the star HD 35502. Its magnetic field has been measured in different phases of its period. Preliminary values of the magnetic field parameters have been obtained based on a central quadrupole model. The effective magnetic field Be varies over 0-5000 G, the average surface magnetic field ranges over 6300-6700 G, the field at the poles is Bp=7000 G, and the angle between the quadrupole axis and the axis of rotation is β = 80o. As a first approximation, the surface helium is concentrated around the (negative) pole and for τ > 1 its abundance is reduced by approximately 2-4 dex, which confirms the hypothesis of helium diffusion under the action of gravitation and wind in a stable atmosphere. The chemical elements Si and Cr are concentrated in four spots on the magnetic equator between the magnetic poles, or in a ring coincident with the magnetic equator; precisely which is not clear at present.  相似文献

It is shown that the radius of curvature of magnetic field lines in the polar region of a rotating magnetized neutron star can be significantly less than the usual radius of curvature of the dipole magnetic field. The magnetic field in the polar cap is distorted by toroidal electric currents flowing in the neutron star crust. These currents close up the magnetospheric currents driven by the electron–positron plasma generation process in the pulsar magnetosphere. Owing to the decrease in the radius of curvature, electron–positron plasma generation becomes possible even for slowly rotating neutron stars, with   PB −2/312 < 10 s  , where P is the period of star rotation and   B 12= B /1012 G  is the magnitude of the magnetic field on the star surface.  相似文献

We simulate the impact of a dipolar stellar magnetic field rooted in a classical T Tauri star on the accretion disk and the halo above using a 2.5D finite difference code. The gas is assumed resistive, and inside the disk accretion is driven by a Shakura-Sunyaev-type eddy viscosity. The rotational shear between the star and the Keplerian disk causes the magnetic field to be wound up and stretched outwards, away from the star. Part of the field lines open and an outflow is launched. Direct disk disruption by the Lorentz force only occurs for sufficient field strength. For our model system with a solar-mass central star, an accretion rate of 10-7M⊙/a, and a viscosity parameter αSS=0.01, a field strength of 1 kG, measured at the poles on the surface of the star, was found insufficient for disk disruption.  相似文献

The observed phase relations between the weak background solar magnetic (poloidal) field and strong magnetic field associated with sunspots (toroidal field) measured at different latitudes are presented. For measurements of the solar magnetic field (SMF) the low-resolution images obtained from Wilcox Solar Observatory are used and the sunspot magnetic field was taken from the Solar Feature Catalogues utilizing the SOHO/MDI full-disk magnetograms. The quasi-3D latitudinal distributions of sunspot areas and magnetic fields obtained for 30 latitudinal bands (15 in the northern hemisphere and 15 in the southern hemisphere) within fixed longitudinal strips are correlated with those of the background SMF. The sunspot areas in all latitudinal zones (averaged with a sliding one-year filter) reveal a strong positive correlation with the absolute SMF in the same zone appearing first with a zero time lag and repeating with a two- to three-year lag through the whole period of observations. The residuals of the sunspot areas averaged over one year and those over four years are also shown to have a well defined periodic structure visible in every two – three years close to one-quarter cycle with the maxima occurring at − 40° and + 40° and drifts during this period either toward the equator or the poles depending on the latitude of sunspot occurrence. This phase relation between poloidal and toroidal field throughout the whole cycle is discussed in association with both the symmetric and asymmetric components of the background SMF and relevant predictions by the solar dynamo models.  相似文献

We discuss the possibility to obtain an electromagnetic emission accompanying the gravitational waves emitted in the coalescence of a compact binary system. Motivated by the existence of black hole configurations with open magnetic field lines along the rotation axis, we consider a magnetic dipole in the system, the evolution of which leads to (i) electromagnetic radiation, and (ii) a contribution to the gravitational radiation, the luminosity of both being evaluated. Starting from the observations on magnetars, we impose upper limits for both the electromagnetic emission and the contribution of the magnetic dipole to the gravitational wave emission. Adopting this model for the evolution of neutron star binaries leading to short gamma ray bursts, we compare the correction originated by the electromagnetic field to the gravitational waves emission, finding that they are comparable for particular values of the magnetic field and of the orbital radius of the binary system. Finally we calculate the electromagnetic and gravitational wave energy outputs which result comparable for some values of magnetic field and radius.  相似文献

Observed hot spots on neutron stars are often associated with polar caps heated by the backflow of energetic electrons or positrons from accelerators on bundles of open magnetic field lines. Three effects are discussed that may be relevant to formation of hot spots and their areas. (1) The area of a polar cap is proportional to the ratio of the star’s surface dipole field to the local field at the polar cap. Because the field is coupled to the evolving spin of the superfluid core of the star, this ratio can depend on the stellar spin and its history. (2) The hot emission area may appear smaller to a distant observer when emitted X-rays propagate through electron-positron plasma created in the magnetosphere. The X-rays then change their energy spectrum because of cyclotron resonant scattering by pairs. (3) Hot spots may form on the star’s surface as a result of crust motions that are driven by the pull of core flux tubes pinned to the crust. Such motions twist the footprints of closed magnetic loops of the magnetosphere and induce an electric current in the loop, which will heat those footprints.  相似文献

We present measurements of the longitudinal magnetic field component B of the young star BP Tau in the He I 5876 emission line formation region, i.e., in the accretion flow near the stellar surface. The values obtained (?1.7 kG and ?1.0 kG in 2000 and 2001, respectively) agree with the results of similar measurements by other authors. At the same time, we show that the previously obtained field strength at the magnetic pole, B p, and the inclination of the magnetic axis to the rotation axis, β, are untrustworthy. In our opinion, based on the B measurements available to date, it is not possible to conclude whether the star’s magnetic field is a dipole one or has a more complex configuration and to solve the question of whether this field is stationary. However, we argue that at least in the He I 5876 line formation region, the star’s magnetic field is not stationary and can be restructured in a time of the order of several hours. Nonstationary small-scale magnetic fields of active regions on the stellar surface and/or magnetospheric field line reconnection due to the twisting of these field lines as the star rotates could be responsible for the short-term magnetic field variability. It seems highly likely that there are no strictly periodic variations in brightness and emission line profiles in BP Tau due to the irregular restructuring of the star’s magnetic field.  相似文献

We study the formation of the absorption features, called the cyclotron–annihilation lines, in the γ-spectra of the neutron stars (pulsars), owing to the fundamental quantum-electrodynamic effect of the one–photon pair creation in magnetized vacuum. As a result, we substantiate a new method for the determination of the neutron star magnetic fields B based on measuring the interval between the main annihilation and the first cyclotron–annihilation absorption lines. It is found that these lines may be easily resolved, and, consequently, the method is surely applicable if the following conditions are satisfied. (i) A γ-source has to be compact enough and located near a star, but not close to its magnetic poles. For instance, it may be a disc in the plane of a star magnetic equator with latitudinal angular width less than     and radial extent up to 25 per cent of the star radius. (ii) The source is to produce detectable γ-radiation at large angles ≳60° to the local magnetic field. Being situated in a closed field line region and having a broad radiation pattern, such a source is not what is usually considered in the context of the polar cap and outer gap models of the pulsar γ-emission dealing with open field lines only. (iii) Magnetic field strength must lie in a certain narrow interval with the centre at  ∼(3–4) × 1012  G. Its width depends on the star orientation and disc radial extend and in the most favourable case is about 20–30 per cent of its lower boundary. Finally, the influence of the star rotation on this method employment is considered and new possibilities arising from forthcoming polarization observations are briefly discussed.  相似文献

Recent measurements of the surface magnetic fields of classical T Tauri stars (CTTSs) and magnetic cataclysmic variables show that their magnetic fields have a complex structure. Investigation of accretion onto such stars requires global three-dimensional (3D) magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations, where the complexity of simulations strongly increases with each higher-order multipole. Previously, we were able to model disc accretion onto stars with magnetic fields described by a superposition of dipole and quadrupole moments. However, in some stars, like CTTS V2129 Oph and BP Tau, the octupolar component is significant and it was necessary to include the next octupolar component. Here, we show results of global 3D MHD simulations of accretion onto stars with superposition of the dipole and octupole fields, where we vary the ratio between components. Simulations show that if octupolar field strongly dominates at the disc-magnetosphere boundary, then matter flows into the ring-like octupolar poles, forming ring-shape spots at the surface of the star above and below equator. The light-curves are complex and may have two peaks per period. In case where the dipole field dominates, matter accretes in two ordered funnel streams towards poles, however the polar spots are meridionally-elongated due to the action of the octupolar component. In the case when the fields are of similar strengths, both, polar and belt-like spots are present. In many cases the light-curves show the evidence of complex fields, excluding the cases of small inclinations angles, where sinusoidal light-curve is observed and ‘hides’ the information about the field complexity.We also propose new mechanisms of phase shift in stars with complex magnetic fields. We suggest that the phase shifts can be connected with: (1) temporal variation of the star’s intrinsic magnetic field and subsequent redistribution of main magnetic poles; (2) variation of the accretion rate, which causes the disc to interact with the magnetic fields associated with different magnetic moments. We use our model to demonstrate these phase shift mechanisms, and we discuss possible applications of these mechanisms to accreting millisecond pulsars and young stars.  相似文献

This work treats the matter deceleration in a magnetohydrodynamic radiative shock wave at the surface of a star. The problem is relevant to classical T Tauri stars where infalling matter is channelled along the star's magnetic field and stopped in the dense layers of photosphere. A significant new aspect of this work is that the magnetic field has an arbitrary angle with respect to the normal to the star's surface. We consider the limit where the magnetic field at the surface of the star is not very strong in the sense that the inflow is super-Alfvénic. In this limit, the initial deceleration and heating of plasma (at the entrance to the cooling zone) occurs in a fast magnetohydrodynamic shock wave. To calculate the intensity of radiative losses we use 'real' and 'power-law' radiative functions. We determine the stability/instability of the radiative shock wave as a function of parameters of the incoming flow: velocity, strength of the magnetic field, and its inclination to the surface of the star. In a number of simulation runs with the 'real' radiative function, we find a simple criterion for stability of the radiative shock wave. For a wide range of parameters, the periods of oscillation of the shock wave are of the order of  0.02–0.2 s  .  相似文献
