Wave Excitation in Discs Around Rotating Magnetic Stars
The accretion disc around a rotating magnetic star (neutron star, white dwarf or T Tauri star) is subjected to periodic vertical magnetic forces from the star, with the forcing frequency equal to the stellar spin frequency or twice the spin frequency. This gives rise bending waves in the disc that may influence the variabilities of the system. We study the excitation, propagation and dissipatio...
متن کاملModeling Rapidly Rotating Stars
We review the quest of modeling rapidly rotating stars during the past 40 years and detail the challenges to be taken up by models facing new data from interferometry, seismology, spectroscopy... We then present the progress of the ESTER project aimed at giving a physically self-consistent model for the structure and evolution of rapidly rotating stars.
متن کاملViscous Transonic Decretion in Disks of Be Stars
We study the characteristics of the outflow in disks of Be stars, based on the viscous decretion disk scenario. In this scenario, the matter ejected from the equatorial surface of the star drifts outward because of the effect of viscosity, and forms the disk. For simplicity, we adopt the α-prescription for the viscous stress, and assume the disk to be isothermal. Solving the resulting wind equa...
متن کاملLine-driven ablation of circumstellar discs – I. Optically thin decretion discs of classical Oe/Be stars
The extreme luminosities of massive, hot OB stars drive strong stellar winds through line-scattering of the star's UV continuum radiation. For OB stars with an orbiting circumstellar disc, we explore here the effect of such line-scattering in driving an ablation of material from the disc's surface layers, with initial focus on the marginally optically thin decretion discs of classical Oe and Be...
متن کاملThree-dimensional eccentric discs around Be stars
One-armed oscillation modes in the circumstellar discs of Be stars may explain the cyclical variations in their emission lines. We show that a three-dimensional effect, involving vertical motion and neglected in previous treatments, profoundly influences the dynamics. Using a secular theory of eccentric discs that reduces the problem to a second-order differential equation, we show that confine...
