Galactic dolls: a fascinating phenomenon
In our previous analyzes, we have explored the impressors that emerge from the active galaxy nuclei, where a supermassive black hole devours. These jets, which can reach colossal dimensions, not only transform the region of stellar formation, but also influence the structure of the entire galaxy. However, their size and intensity vary considerably, depending on factors such as the age of the doll, their power, and the characteristics of the origin galaxy.
The relationship between stars and jets
Stars orbiting around the galactic nucleus can cross these massive structures. We may imagine the doll will destroy them, but the reality is very different. Stars emit stellar winds composed of radiation -driven particles, similar to solar winds that generate auroras on our planet. These particles can reach supersonic speeds and cause shock waves that impact on the interstellar environment.
Interactions in the flow
Upon entering the doll, these winds face an extremely powerful flow of energy. This causes a shock wave approaching the star, creating a fascinating scenario that can be observed by numerical simulations. In these simulations, you can see how the doll interacts with the stellar wind, generating a region of turbulence that mixes both elements.
The composition of the jets: a key aspect
The composition of the jets is affected by the stars around them. The stellar winds can pollute these jets with protons, which are incorporated into the flow of the doll, altering their dynamics. Our studies suggest that in less powerful hats, this pollution can lead to significant loss of speed.
Neutrins and Cosmic Raigs
Another intriguing aspect is the possible production of neutrinos by the jets. Although it is known that jets may be cosmic ray sources, it has recently been suggested that they could also generate high energy neutrinos. However, in order to produce these neutrins, we need accelerated protons at extreme speeds, and we have not yet identified the process that would allow a doll, which initially does not contain many protons, accumulate and accelerate sufficient particles.
The mystery continues
The interaction between jets and stars is one of the great mysteries of modern astronomy. The few high-energy neutrinos detections suggest that there may be fast and cataclysmic events in the heart of the jets. Thus, the scientific debate continues, keeping the curiosity alive about the phenomena surrounding these imposing galactic structures. Solls and their interactions not only challenge our current understanding, but also open the door for new questions and fascinating discoveries.
