Can non-ideal magnetohydrodynamics solve the magnetic braking catastrophe?
We investigate whether or not the low ionisation fractions in molecular cloud cores can solve the ‘magnetic braking catastrophe’, where magnetic fields prevent the formation of circumstellar discs around young stars. We perform three-dimensional smoothed particle non-ideal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) simulations of the gravitational collapse of one solar mass molecular cloud cores, incorporating...
متن کاملThe Biermann Catastrophe in Numerical Magnetohydrodynamics
The Biermann battery effect is frequently invoked in cosmic magnetogenesis and studied in high-energy density laboratory physics experiments. Generation of magnetic fields by the Biermann effect due to misaligned density and temperature gradients in smooth flow behind shocks is well known. We show that a Biermann-effect magnetic field is also generated within shocks. Direct implementation of th...
متن کاملAverting the magnetic braking catastrophe on small scales: disk formation due to Ohmic dissipation
We perform axisymmetric resistive MHD calculations that demonstrate that centrifugal disks can indeed form around Class 0 objects despite magnetic braking. We follow the evolution of a prestellar core all the way to near-stellar densities and stellar radii. Under fluxfreezing, the core is braked and disk formation is inhibited, while Ohmic dissipation renders magnetic braking ineffective within...
متن کاملTwo - wave interaction in ideal magnetohydrodynamics
The weakly nonlinear interaction of sound and linearly polarised Alfvén waves propagating in the same direction along an applied magnetic field is studied. It is found that a sound wave is coupled to the Alfvén wave with double period and wavelength when the sound and Alfvén speeds are equal. The Alfvén wave drives the sound wave through the ponderomotive force, while the sound wave returns ene...
