Turbulence in Line-Driven Stellar Winds
Hot, luminous OB stars have strong stellar winds driven by the line-scattering of the star's continuum radiation. This line-driving mechanism is understood to be highly unstable to smallscale perturbations. I review e orts to simulate the nonlinear evolution of this instability using radiation hydrodynamics simulation codes. Because the usual local, Sobolev treatment for the line-force does not...
متن کاملNLTE models of line-driven stellar winds
New numerical models of line-driven stellar winds of late O stars are presented. Statistical equilibrium (NLTE) equations of the most abundant elements are solved. Properly obtained occupation numbers are used to calculate consistent radiative force and radiative heating terms. Wind density, velocity and temperature are calculated as a solution of model hydrodynamical equations. Contrary to oth...
متن کاملNeutrino oscillations in strong gravitational fields.
Neutrino oscillations in the presence of strong gravitational fields are studied. We look at very high energy neutrinos (∼1 TeV) emanating from Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN). It is observed that spin flavor resonant transitions of such neutrinos may occur in the vicinity of AGN due to gravitational effects and due to the presence of a large magnetic field (∼1 Tesla). A point to note is that matt...
متن کاملThe Effects of Magnetic Fields on Line-Driven Hot-Star Winds
This talk summarizes results from recent MHD simulations of the role of a dipole magnetic field in inducing large-scale structure in the line-driven stellar winds of hot, luminous stars. Unlike previous fixed-field analyses, the MHD simulations here take full account of the dynamical competition between the field and the flow. A key result is that the overall degree to which the wind is influen...
متن کاملUnification of Gravitational and Strong Nuclear Fields
Recently a wave equation for unified field theory has been derived [1-3] from a lemma of Cartan-Riemann differential geometry [4, 5] and used to give the first self consistent unified description of the gauge invariant gravitational and electromagnetic fields. The former is the Riemann form and the latter is the torsion form. One form is the Hodge dual of the other. The theory has been shown [1...
