Episodic accretion in magnetically layered protoplanetary discs
We study protoplanetary disc evolution assuming that angular momentum transport is driven by gravitational instability at large radii, and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence in the hot inner regions. At radii of the order of 1 AU such discs develop a magnetically layered structure, with accretion occurring in an ionized surface layer overlying quiescent gas that is too cool to sustain MHD tur...
متن کاملSpiral waves in accretion discs
In the first part of this article, we review the observational evidence for spirals in the accretion discs of cataclysmic variables. It is shown that with the increasing amount of data available, spirals appear to be an omnipresent feature of accretion discs in outburst. Spirals seem to live until decline that is, for several tens of orbital periods. We then study the formation of spiral shocks...
متن کاملSpiral Shocks in 3D Accretion Discs
We have performed three-dimensional numerical simulations of accretion discs in a close binary system using the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method. Our results show that, contrary to previous claims, 3D discs do exist even when the specific heat ratio of the gas is as large as γ = 1.2. Although the disc is clearly more spread in the z-direction in this case than it is for the quasi-is...
متن کاملSpiral waves in accretion discs - observations
I review the observational evidence for spiral structure in the accretion discs of cataclysmic variables (CVs). Doppler tomography is ideally suited to resolve and map such co-rotating patterns and allows a straightforward comparison with theory. The dwarf nova IP Pegasi presents the best studied case, carrying two spiral arms in a wide range of emission lines throughout its outbursts. Both arm...
متن کاملOn the observability of spiral structures in CV accretion discs
We use the grid of hydrodynamic accretion disc calculations of Stehle (1999) to construct orbital phase dependent emission line profiles of thin discs carrying spiral density waves. The observational signatures of spiral waves are explored to establish the feasibility of detecting spiral waves in cataclysmic variable discs using prominent emission lines in the visible range of the spectrum. For...
