| 研究開始時の研究の概要 |
The purpose of this research is to understand the missing link between core collapse supernova explosion and neutron star formation - observed neutron star diversity by first principle studies. we will numerically construct realistic outflow from neutron stars with various surface environments, rotation period and magnetic field configurations, and precisely model the interaction between this outflow and fallback matter together with their imprints on the observation signal, such as pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe), light curve and radiation spectrum.

| 研究実績の概要 |
Our research, inspired by Yici Zhong et al. (2021), focuses on simulating magnetic-driven winds from compact objects, particularly white dwarfs, employing magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) studies. Initially, we reproduce the adiabatic wind solution to approximate physical conditions around white dwarfs. Then, we introduce magnetic fields to initiate magnetic-driven winds. We investigate various wind adiabatic indices, examining equatorial plane profiles and the scaling of wind velocity at infinity with temperature. For magnetic-driven winds, we establish an internal energy floor to address regions dominated by magnetic energy, tracking its time evolution separately. We analyze the sonic radius, Alfven radius, and the dependence of open magnetic flux on radii at different latitudes. Our findings confirm an anisotropic wind structure with the formation of equatorial current sheets. Additionally, we discuss the spin evolution of the white dwarf merger remnant WD J005311 in Yici Zhong et al. (2024).

| 今後の研究の推進方策 |
My research project will continue to advance in several key directions. Firstly, I will persist in studying the stellar wind emanating from compact objects through the utilization of high-performance simulations. This will enable me to delve deeper into the intricacies of wind dynamics and their interactions with surrounding environments. Secondly, my primary emphasis will be on exploring the long-term evolution of the magnetic fields of accreting neutron stars. By conducting detailed investigations into the complex interplay between accretion processes and magnetic field evolution, I aim to uncover insights into the behavior and characteristics of these systems over extended timescales. Furthermore, I intend to augment my numerical simulations by incorporating radiative transfer mechanisms and accounting for general relativistic effects. By doing so, I seek to capture the full complexity of the physical phenomena at play, allowing for a more comprehensive understanding of the observed phenomena in neutron star environments.
