Abstract: |
Axisymmetric MHD simulations are used to investigate the
Bondi–Hoyle accretion onto an isolated magnetized neutron star
moving supersonically through the interstellar medium.
The star is assumed to have a dipole magnetic field
and a magnetospheric radius Rm less then the accretion
radius RBH, so that the gravitational focusing is
important. |
