The impact of the Hall effect during cloud core collapse:implications for circumstellar disk evolution

Published 14 Jun 2017 in astro-ph.SR, astro-ph.EP, and astro-ph.GA | (1706.04363v2)

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 $\magB$ and angular momentum $\angJ$ 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 $\magB$ and $\angJ$, respectively. This suggests that the bimodal evolution of the disk size may occur in early disk evolutionary phase even if $\magB$ and $\angJ$ 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 ($r\sim100$ AU) and small ($r\lesssim10$ AU) disks, respectively.
