Resistive MHD Simulations of Star-Disk-Jet System

Solar and Stellar Astrophysics 2009-08-19 v1

Abstract

Stellar magnetosphere and accretion disk interact, and a result should be outflow launched from the innermost vicinity of a protostellar object. We simulated physical conditions in this region by resistive MHD simulations. Outflows resembling the observed ones do not happen in the closest vicinity, except for quasi-stationary funnel flows onto the star, but could occur at few tens of stellar radii above the star. Numerical simulations we performed using our resistive version of ZEUS-3D code, ZEUS347.
