Self-Similar Evolutionary Solutions of Self-Gravitating, Polytropic β-Viscous Disks
Abstract
We carry out the effect of β-prescription for viscosity which introduced by Duschel et al. 2000 & Hure, Richard & Zhan 2001, in a standard self-gravitating thin disks. We were predicted in a self-gravitating thin disk the β-model will have different dynamical behavior compare the well known α-prescriptions. We used self-similar methods for solving the integrated equations which govern the dynamical behavior of the thin disks. We present the results of self-similar solutions of the time evolution of axisymmetric, polytropic, self-gravitating viscous disks around a new born central object. We apply a β-viscosity prescription which has been derived from rotating shear flow experiments (=β r2). Using reduced equations in a slow accretion limit, we demonstrate inside-out self-similar solutions after core formation in the center. Some physical quantities for β-disks are determined numerically.We have compared our results with α-disks under the same initial conditions. It has been found that the accretion rate onto the central object for β-disks more than α-disks at least in the outer regions where β-disks are more efficient. Our results show that Toomre instability parameter is less than one everywhere on the β-disk which means that in such disks gravitational instabilities can be occurred, so the β-disk model can be a good candidate for the origin of planetary systems. Our results show that the β-disks will decouple in the outer part of the disk where the self-gravity plays an important role which is in agreement with Duschl predictions.
