Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to understand the diversity of dwarf nova outbursts revealed by recent advances in observational techniques, we have improved the disk instability model and performed numerical simulations. As a result, we succeeded in reproducing the luminosity variations of multiple sources. We have also improved the numerical simulation code to apply our research not only to dwarf novae but also to other accretion disk objects such as X-ray binary stars and active galactic nuclei.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
近年、時間領域天文学の発達により、突発天体の研究が盛んになっている。コンパクト天体への突発的ガス降着は、大量の重力エネルギーを放射エネルギーとして解放する、宇宙で最も激しい突発現象の中心エンジンである。その中心エンジンの活動性を調べるために最適な天体の一つが矮新星であり、本研究で得られた成果は他の様々な突発天体の研究に応用可能である。
