Gravity, Rotation and Magnetic Fields
Magnetic fields are fundamental to the dynamics of both accretion disks and the jets that they often drive. We review the basic physics of these phenomena, the past and current efforts to model them numerically with an emphasis on the jetdisk connection, and the observational constraints on the role of magnetic fields in the jets of active galaxies on all scales.
متن کاملNeutrino Processes in Strong Magnetic Fields and Implications for Supernova Dynamics
The processes νe+n ⇋ p+e − and ν̄e+p ⇋ n+e + provide the dominant mechanisms for heating and cooling the material between the protoneutron star and the stalled shock in a core-collapse supernova. Observations suggest that some neutron stars are born with magnetic fields of at least ∼ 10 G while theoretical considerations give an upper limit of ∼ 10 G for the protoneutron star magnetic fields. We...
متن کاملNeutrinos in Strong Magnetic Fields
We compute the dispersion relations for neutrinos propagating in an electroweak plasma, in the presence of very strong magnetic fields. The neutrino self-energy is calculated in the one-loop approximation. We consider only contributions of the first Landau level to the propagator of the W -bosons, and distinguish between motion parallel or perpendicular to the external magnetic field. We find t...
متن کاملStellar Evolution with Rotation and Magnetic Fields
We examine the generation of a magnetic field in a solar-like star and its effects on the internal distribution of the angular velocity. We suggest that the evolution of a rotating star with magnetic fields leads to an equilibrium value of the differential rotation. This equilibrium is determined by the magnetic coupling, which favours a constant rotation profile, and meridional circulation whi...
متن کاملMagnetic fields and rotation of spiral galaxies
We present a simplified model in which we suggest that two important galactic problems -the magnetic field configuration at large scales and the flat rotation curvemay be simultaneously explained. A highly convective disc produces a high turbulent magnetic diffusion in the vertical direction, stablishing a merging of extragalactic and galactic magnetic fields. The outer disc may then adquire a ...
