Introduction

Using numerical hydrodynamic techniques, the Hadley & Imamura collaboration — see especially Paper I and Paper II — has studied the dynamical development of nonaxisymmetric instabilities in toroidal configurations that have a range of "star-to-disk" mass ratios and a wide variety of (initially axisymmetric) geometric structures. We have begun to analyze the results of these numerical simulations in the context of what is known, analytically, about normal modes of oscillation and nonaxisymmetric instabilities in massless Papaloizou-Pringle tori. On the analytic side, our focus has been on the very informative stability analysis published by Blaes (1985).


This brief appendix is provided primarily to support our accompanying discussion of the "Characteristics of Unstable Eigenvectors in Self-Gravitating Tori;" especially the subsection of that chapter in which some results from the Hadley & Imamura collaboration are directly compared to the analytic analysis by Blaes (1985). In addition to the relatively small number of individual models whose unstable eigenvectors have been described in the published literature — see especially the three papers listed below — Hadley and Imamura have stored digital results from a very large number of model simulations in an online Stardisks repository. We greatly appreciate being granted permission (explicitly by K. Z. Hadley) to access this data repository and to post this link so that other researchers may study the accumulated data as well.

Specifics of Database

The initial, axisymmetric toroidal configuration that is associated with each simulation is uniquely characterized by the following set of physical parameters:

<math>~n</math> Polytropic index
<math>~q</math> Power-law index characterizing angular velocity profile
<math>~M_*/M_\mathrm{disk}</math> Star-to-disk (i.e., star-to-torus) mass ratio
<math>~R_-/R_+</math> Ratio of inner-to-outer edge of the torus, in its equatorial plane

In addition to specifying these four parameters, the Hadley & Imamura collaboration also tag each evolution with an integer value of <math>~m</math>, to identify the nonaxisymmetric mode that was observed to be fastest growing. For example, following the "star-disk models" link that appears at the top of the category list on the home page of the Stardisks repository will bring you to a page that provides active links to 32 separate model categories, such as:

  Model Category To go directly to the identified page …
  <math>~(n, q, m)</math> <math>~=</math> <math>~(1.5, 1.0, 1)</math> click this link
  <math>~(n, q, m)</math> <math>~=</math> <math>~(1.5, 1.75, 3)</math> click this link
Most relevant here    <math>~(n, q, m)</math> <math>~=</math> <math>~(1.5, 2.0, 2)</math> click this link
  <math>~(n, q, m)</math> <math>~=</math> <math>~(2.5, 1.5, 2)</math> click this link

Clicking on any one of these category links will take you to a page containing a number of separate tables — each labeled with the relevant <math>~M_*/M_\mathrm{disk}</math> value — and, within each table, a (sometimes large!) number of rows, each characterized (usually in the 2nd column) by the specific model's <math>~R_-/R_+</math>.


For example, on the page associated with the model category that we have identified (see red arrow, above) as most relevant to our accompanying discussions, we find that the 2nd row of the top-most table details various properties of a particular model evolution uniquely identified by the set of parameters, <math>~(n, q, M_*/M_\mathrm{disk}, R_-/R_+)</math> = <math>~(1.5, 2.0, 0.0, 0.1008)</math>. And on the same page, the last row of the bottom-most table details various properties of another particular model evolution uniquely identified by the set of parameters, <math>~(n, q, M_*/M_\mathrm{disk}, R_-/R_+)</math> = <math>~(1.5, 2.0, 1000.0, 0.8002)</math>. In both of these model evolutions, the fastest growing unstable mode was <math>~m = 2</math>.


At the very bottom of every <math>~(n,q,m)</math> model category page is a list of — and a hypertext link to — ten "Image Tables." Clicking on the "eqContour" link takes you to a page that contains a thumbnail image showing the meridional-plane density contours of the equilibrium model that served as the initial condition for every evolution catalogued under the chosen <math>~(n,q,m)</math> category. The thumbnail images are laid out on a two-dimensional, rectangular lattice whose horizontal position is set by the specific model's mass ratio and whose vertical position is set by the model's geometric ratio, <math>R_-/R_+</math>.

The image displayed here, on the left in Figure 1, was extracted from coordinate position <math>~(M_*/M_\mathrm{disk}, R_-/R_+)</math> = <math>~(0.0,0.1)</math>, near the upper-left corner of the "eqContour" Image Table associated with our above-identified "most relevant" model category, namely, <math>~(n,q,m)</math> = <math>~(1.5,2.0,2)</math>. This is a very thick (toroidal-shaped), isolated self-gravitating disk; that is, there is no central star associated with this dynamical system. The image displayed on the left in Figure 2, was extracted from coordinate position <math>~(M_*/M_\mathrm{disk}, R_-/R_+)</math> = <math>~(1000.0, 0.8)</math>, near the bottom-right corner of the same "eqContour" Image Table. This is a very slender and nearly massless disk/torus; it is orbiting a central (point-like) star whose mass is one thousand times larger than the mass of the disk.

In an analogous fashion, the images displayed here in the middle of Figure 1 and Figure 2 were extracted from the <math>~|\delta\rho|/\rho(\varpi)</math> Image Table associated with the <math>~(n,q,m)</math> = <math>~(1.5,2.0,2)</math> model category. And the images displayed on the right in both figures were extracted from the "<math>~\delta\rho</math> phase(m)" Image Table associated with the <math>~(n,q,m)</math> = <math>~(1.5,2.0,2)</math> model category.

Relationship to Studies of Slender, Massless Tori

In an accompanying chapter, we have discussed the "characteristics of unstable eigenvectors in self-gravitating tori" — such as the ones presented by the Hadley & Imamura collaboration — in the context of analytic studies of normal modes of oscillation in tori that …

  • have <math>~n = \tfrac{3}{2}</math> — although this can be readily generalized;
  • have uniform specific angular momentum — that is, have <math>~q = 2.0</math>;
  • are massless, that is, have <math>~M_*/M_\mathrm{disk} = \infty</math>;
  • are slender — that is, they have geometric ratios, <math>~R_-/R_+</math> near unity.

As a group, these configurations represent a subset of a much broader range of massless tori whose (initial) axisymmetric, equilibrium structures are completely definable in terms of analytic expressions. As has been discussed in an accompanying chapter, Papaloizou & Pringle (1984, MNRAS, 208, 721-750) were the first to derive and discuss these expressions in the context of Newtonian systems.
