The Evolution of the Angular Momentum Distribution during Star Formation.
If the angular momentum of the molecular cloud core were conserved during the star formation process, a newborn star would rotate much faster than its fission speed. This constitutes the angular momentum problem of newborn stars. In this Letter, the angular momentum transfer in the contraction of a rotating magnetized cloud is studied with axisymmetric MHD simulations. Because of the large dyna...
متن کاملStar Formation, Supernovae Feedback and the Angular Momentum Problem in Numerical Cdm Cosmogony: Half Way There?
We present a smoothed particle hydrodynamic (SPH) simulation that reproduces a galaxy that is a moderate facsimile of those observed. The primary failing point of previous simulations of disk formation, namely excessive transport of angular momentum from gas to dark matter, is ameliorated by the inclusion of a supernova feedback algorithm that allows energy to persist in the model ISM for a per...
متن کاملGalactic Disk Formation and the Angular Momentum Problem
Galactic disk formation requires knowledge about the initial conditions under which disk galaxies form, the boundary conditions that affect their secular evolution and the micro-physical processes that drive the multi-phase interstellar medium and regulate their star formation history. Most of these ingredients are still poorly understood. Recent high-resolution observations of young high-redsh...
متن کاملSpin and orbital angular momentum exchange in binary star systems
We present a comprehensive model for studying the angular momentum (AM) evolution in binary star systems, taking into account: (i) evolutionary effects of both component stars on the Pre-Main Sequence (PMS), on the Main Sequence (MS) and during the (initial) ascent onto the giant branch; (ii) spin-orbital AM exchange through ‘tidal’ interactions; and (iii) AM loss from one or both component sta...
متن کاملThe Angular Momentum Problem in Cosmological Simulations of Disk Galaxy Formation
We conduct a systematic study of the angular momentum problem in numerical simulations of disk galaxy formation. We investigate the role of numerical resolution using a semi-cosmological setup which combines an efficient use of the number of particles in an isolated halo while preserving the hierarchical build-up of the disk through the merging of clumps. We perform the same simulation varying ...
