Relativistic Parker winds with variable effective polytropic index
Spherically symmetric hydrodynamical outflows accelerated thermally in the vicinity of a compact object are studied by generalizing an equation of state with a variable effective polytropic index, appropriate to describe relativistic temperatures close to the central object and nonrelativistic ones further away. Relativistic effects introduced by the Schwarzschild metric and the presence of rel...
متن کاملParker Winds Revisited: An Extension to Disk Winds
Parker Winds Revisited: An Extension to Disk Winds by Timothy R. Waters Dr. Daniel Proga, Examination Committe Chair Associate Professor of Physics & Astronomy University of Nevada, Las Vegas A simple 1D dynamical model of thermally driven disk winds is proposed, based on the results of recent, 2.5D axi-symmetric simulations. Our formulation of the disk wind problem is in the spirit of the orig...
متن کاملNumerical simulations of stellar winds: polytropic models
We discuss steady-state transonic outflows obtained by direct numerical solution of the hydrodynamic and magnetohydrodynamic equations. We make use of the Versatile Advection Code, a software package for solving systems of (hyperbolic) partial differential equations. We proceed stepwise from a spherically symmetric, isothermal, unmagnetized, non-rotating Parker wind to arrive at axisymmetric, p...
متن کاملGeneral Relativistic Stars : Polytropic Equations of State
In this paper, the gravitational field equations for static spherically symmetric perfect fluid models with a polytropic equation of state, p = kρ1+1/n, are recast into two complementary 3-dimensional regular systems of ordinary differential equations on compact state spaces. The systems are analyzed numerically and qualitatively, using the theory of dynamical systems. Certain key solutions are...
متن کاملLarge-scale Parker Winds in Active Galactic Nuclei
We build and test Parker-wind models to apply to observations of large-scale (∼ 100pc) outflows from Active Galactic Nuclei (AGNs). These models include detailed photoionization simulations, the observed radially varying mass profile, adiabatic cooling, and approximations for clouds dragged along in the wind and the interaction of the wind with the circumnuclear ISM of the galaxy. We test this ...
