Early evolution of disk, outflow, and magnetic field of young stellar objects: Impact of dust model (2006.16458v1)

Published 30 Jun 2020 in astro-ph.SR, astro-ph.EP, and astro-ph.GA

Abstract: The formation and early evolution of low mass young stellar objects (YSOs) are investigated using three-dimensional non-ideal magneto-hydrodynamics simulations. We investigate the evolution of YSOs up to ~ 104 yr after protostar formation, at which protostellar mass reaches ~ 0.1 M_\odot . We particularly focus on the impact of the dust model on the evolution. We found that a circumstellar disk is formed in all simulations regardless of the dust model. Disk size is approximately 10 AU at the protostar formation epoch, and it increases to several tens of AU at ~ 104 yr after protostar formation. Disk mass is comparable to central protostellar mass and gravitational instability develops. In the simulations with small dust size, the warp of the pseudodisk develops ~ 104 yr after protostar formation. The warp strengthens magnetic braking in the disk and decreases disk size. Ion-neutral drift can occur in the infalling envelope under the conditions that the typical dust size is a \gtrsim 0.2{\mu}m and the protostar (plus disk) mass is M \gtrsim 0.1 M_\odot. The outflow activity is anti-correlated to the dust size and the strong outflow appears with small dust grains.
