We present results from three XMM–Newton observations of the M31 low mass X-ray binary (LMXB) XMMU J004314.4+410726.3 (Bo 158), spaced over 3 d in 2004 July. Bo 158 was the first dipping LMXB to be discovered in M31. Periodic intensity dips were previously seen to occur on a 2.78-h period, due to absorption in material that is raised out of the plane of the accretion disc. The report of these observations stated that the dip depth was anticorrelated with source intensity. In light of the 2004 XMM–Newton observations of Bo 158, we suggest that the dip variation is due to precession of the accretion disc. This is to be expected in LMXBs with a mass ratio ≲0.3 (period ≲4 h), as the disc reaches the 3:1 resonance with the binary companion, causing elongation and precession of the disc. A smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulation of the disc in this system shows retrograde rotation of a disc warp on a period of ∼11 P orb , and prograde disc precession on a period of 29 ± 1 P orb . This is consistent with the observed variation in the depth of the dips. We find that the dipping behaviour is most likely to be modified by the disc precession, hence we predict that the dipping behaviour repeats on an 81 ± 3 h cycle. 相似文献

The term 'dynamo' means different things to the laboratory fusion plasma and astrophysical plasma communities. To alleviate the resulting confusion and to facilitate interdisciplinary progress, we pinpoint conceptual differences and similarities between laboratory plasma dynamos and astrophysical dynamos. We can divide dynamos into three types: 1. magnetically dominated helical dynamos which sustain a large-scale magnetic field against resistive decay and drive the magnetic geometry towards the lowest energy state, 2. flow-driven helical dynamos which amplify or sustain large-scale magnetic fields in an otherwise turbulent flow and 3. flow-driven non-helical dynamos which amplify fields on scales at or below the driving turbulence. We discuss how all three types occur in astrophysics whereas plasma confinement device dynamos are of the first type. Type 3 dynamos require no magnetic or kinetic helicity of any kind. Focusing on Types 1 and 2 dynamos, we show how different limits of a unified set of equations for magnetic helicity evolution reveal both types. We explicitly describe a steady-state example of a Type 1 dynamo, and three examples of Type 2 dynamos: (i) closed volume and time dependent; (ii) steady state with open boundaries; (iii) time dependent with open boundaries. 相似文献

We study the properties of the ’Newtonian forces’ acting on a test particle in the field of the Kerr black hole geometry.
We show that the centrifugal force and the Coriolis force reverse signs at several different locations. We point out the possible
relevance of such reversals particularly in the study of the stability properties of the compact rotating stars and the accretion
discs in hydrostatic equilibria

We present the K -band infrared spectrum of the intermediate polar XY Ari. The spectrum confirms the cataclysmic binary nature of XY Ari, showing emission lines of He i ( λ 2.0587 μm) and the Brackett and Paschen series of H i . The broad nature of these lines suggests an origin in an accretion disc. The spectrum is strongly reddened by absorption within the molecular cloud Lynds 1457 and shows prominent absorption features from the secondary star, from which we determine a spectral type for the secondary of M0V. The secondary contributes per cent of the K -band light. We derive a visual extinction to XY Ari of and a distance of , placing XY Ari behind the molecular cloud. 相似文献

A new theory of eccentric accretion discs is presented. Starting from the basic fluid-dynamical equations in three dimensions, I derive the fundamental set of one-dimensional equations that describe how the mass, angular momentum and eccentricity vector of a thin disc evolve as a result of internal stresses and external forcing. The analysis is asymptotically exact in the limit of a thin disc, and allows for slowly varying eccentricities of arbitrary magnitude. The theory is worked out in detail for a Maxwellian viscoelastic model of the turbulent stress in an accretion disc. This generalizes the conventional alpha viscosity model to account for the non-zero relaxation time of the turbulence, and is physically motivated by a consideration of the nature of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence. It is confirmed that circular discs are typically viscously unstable to eccentric perturbations, as found by Lyubarskij, Postnov & Prokhorov, if the conventional alpha viscosity model is adopted. However, the instability can usually be suppressed by introducing a sufficient relaxation time and/or bulk viscosity. It is then shown that an initially uniformly eccentric disc does not retain its eccentricity as had been suggested by previous analyses. The evolutionary equations should be useful in many applications, including understanding the origin of planetary eccentricities and testing theories of quasi-periodic oscillations in X-ray binaries. 相似文献
