原始磁场产生密度扰动

天体物理学 2009-10-22 v2

摘要

我们研究了由于原始磁场导致的密度扰动和异常速度的生成与演化。我们假设在重组前存在随机磁场,并从重组时刻开始追踪磁场对质子流体的影响。我们发现磁场在大于磁 Jeans 长度 λB\lambda_B 的尺度上产生生长的密度扰动,而在小于 λB\lambda_B 的尺度上表现为阻尼振荡。对于小波数 k(大尺度),我们发现磁场引起的密度功率谱通常按 k4k^4 比例。我们通过将磁场分解为无力背景场及其扰动来显式推导磁 Jeans 长度。 Depending on the strength of the magnetic field and the ultraviolet cutoff of its spectrum, structure can be generated on small or intermediate scales early in the history of the universe. For a present {\it rms} magnetic field of 101010^{-10} G on intergalactic scales, we find that perturbations on galactic scales could have gone non--linear at z6z \simeq 6. Finally, we discuss how primordial magnetic fields affect scenarios of structure formation with non--baryonic dark matter.
