Thin accretion discs around millisecond X-ray pulsars —arXiv: v1 Reporter : Shaoyong

Millisecond x-ray pulsars have weak magnetic dipole moments of ∼ compared to ordinary X-ray pulsars with dipole moments of. The accretion disc then extends much closer to the neutron star, where it reaches such a high temperature that the opacity is dominated by electron scattering and radiation pressure can grow stronger than the gas pressure. The magnetohydrodynamical turbulence in the accretion disc is also generating a magnetic field through a dynamo action

the magnetic field due to a internal dynamo can strengthen the coupling between the accretion disc and the neutron star. the magnetic field due to a dynamo can strengthen the coupling between the accretion disc and the neutron star, and it is shown that the angular momentum exchange between the accretion disc and the neutron star can increase by more than an order of magnitude compared to the standard model by Ghosh & Lamb (1979).

Divide the disc into three regions: 1.outer region with gas pressure and free- free opacity. 2.middle region with gas pressure and electron scattering opacity. 3.inner region with radiation pressure and electron scattering opacity.

Case Ⅰ : Case Ⅱ : Case Ⅲ : For a neutron star of M=1.4,

the magnetic torques due to the dynamo is:

The accretion rates that have been observed in millisecond X-ray pulsars cover several orders of magnitude, and the highest accretion rates are sufficient that the innermost part of the accretion disc is dominated by radiation pressure and electron scattering. The large spin changes that have been observed in some of the accreting millisecond X-ray pulsars are difficult to explain in the model by Ghosh & Lamb (1979), but the inclusion of a disc dynamo produces a significant enhancement of the torque between the accretion disc and the neutron star.

Thank you!
