Abstract

We perform three-dimensional radiation non-ideal magnetohydrodynamics simulations and investigate the impact of the Hall effect on the angular momentum evolution in the collapsing cloud cores in which the magnetic field \magB\magB and angular momentum \angJ\angJ are misaligned with each other. We find that the Hall effect notably changes the magnetic torques in the pseudo-disk, and strengthens and weakens the magnetic braking in cores with an acute and obtuse relative angles between \magB\magB and \angJ\angJ, respectively. This suggests that the bimodal evolution of the disk size may occur in early disk evolutionary phase even if \magB\magB and \angJ\angJ are randomly distributed. We show that a counter-rotating envelope form in the upper envelope of the pseudo-disk in cloud cores with obtuse relative angles. We also find that a counter-rotating region forms at the midplane of the pseudo-disk in cloud cores with acute relative angles. The former and latter types of counter-rotating envelopes may be associated with the YSOs with a large (r100r\sim100 AU) and small (r10r\lesssim10 AU) disks, respectively.
