    Notes: Abstract Dynamical evolution of a relativistic explosion resulting from a large amount of energy release in a homogenous medium is studied using the Khalatnikov equation describing relativistic, hydrodynamic, planar flow. The early phase of the explosion is idealized to two stages: a free expansion and a shock wave stage. By the hodograph transformation inverting the dependent and independent variables, the hydrodynamic equations for the relativistic flow are reduced to second-order linear equations in a velocity-enthalpy space and they are solved by the method of Laplace transformation. The propagation laws and flow structures of the relativistic expansion are obtained at each stage. In the free expansion stage, the flow with a sufficiently high sound velocity forms a thin shell of the energy density in the comoving frame at the front and accelerates the front. In the shock wave stage, the Lorentz factor of the shock front decreases logarithmically with time. The transition time from a free expansion to a shock wave stage suggests that the super-light expansion observed in extragalactic radio sources has no spherical geometry but must be confined to a narrow cone.

    Notes: Abstract A mechanism is proposed for the formation of collimated beams in radio galaxies. The collimated flows which are non-thermally driven by high energy particles and magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) waves are presented. The galactic nucleus surrounded by a cool gas is investigated. The cool gas accretes onto the nucleus and the accretion matter can confine the wave zone around the nucleus in which the high energy particles are completely locked to the MHD waves. When a quasi-radial magnetic field is embedded in the accretion flow, the MHD wave packets are collimated into the direction of symmetry axis of the galactic nuclear disc. The fluid around the nucleus is considered to be accelerated and heated by the MHD waves and ejected along the axis. A complete set of hydrodynamic equations which contain the energy transfers of high energy particles and MHD waves is presented. One-dimensional flows which are in pressure equilibrium with the surrounding accretion matter are calculated. When the energy density of the MHD waves is higher than that of the thermal energy, the fluid flow is strongly collimated in a narrow beam. When the MHD waves are strongly damped by the resistivity of the fluid at the great distance from the galactic centre, the collimated beam broadly reexpands. On the basis of the collimated beams driven by high energy particles, the radio morphology of the double radio sources is discussed.

    Notes: Abstract Dynamical evolution of a relativistic beam ejected from a galactic centre is studied using the similarity method for the relativistic winds flowing through channels. The expansion phase is divided into two stages: A relativistic expansion and a non-relativistic expansion stage. By the dimensional analysis for a relativistic wind, the propagation law of the expanding wave front is obtained. When the front moves relativistically, the density of the ambient matter observed in the co-moving frame of the front increases by the Lorentz contraction and mass increment, and the propagation law obtained in the classical theory is modified by these relativistic effects. On the basis of a perturbation method, a new similarity method for a relativistic flow whose front velocity is varing with the expansion is presented. The flow structures of the relativistic wind are given. With the expansion of a beam, the inward-facing shock wave is more separated from the front of the outward-expanding shock wave and its shock strength becomes stronger than that of the outward-expanding shock wave when the ejected beam consists of energetic particles. The evolutions of the extragalactic double sources are considered. The relative position of the hot spot in the radio map is presented at each stage of the expansion and discussed with the observational radio maps. The time variation of the radio emission is predicted.

    Notes: Abstract Population dynamics of multi-phased interstellar medium (ISM) is investigated by using the lattice model in position-fixed reaction. Interactions between three distinct phases of gas, cold clouds, warm gas, and hot gas give rise to cyclic phase changes in ISM. Such local phase changes are propagated in space, and stochastic steady-state spatial pattern is finally achieved. We obtain the following two characteristic patterns: (1) When the sweeping rate of a warm gas into a cold component is relatively high, cold clouds associated with warm gas form small-scale clumps and are dispersively distributed, whereas hot gas covers large fraction of space. (2) When the sweeping rate is relatively low, in contrast, warm gas and cold clouds are diffusively and equally distributed, while hot gas component is substantially localized.

    Notes: Abstract The dynamical evolution of a relativistic explosion in a homogeneous medium is studied by means of a time-dependent, hydrodynamic code. When the expanding velocity of the shock front reduces to the sound velocity in the relativistic fluid, the reverse shock wave propagating inward through the expanding material is generated. The radius of the turning point of the reverse shock wave is proportional to the explosion energy and hardly depends on the mass of the explosion products. In the case of the non-relativistic explosion, the reverse shock wave is generated just after the free expansion stage. The radius of the turning point of the reverse shock wave is proportional to the mass of the explosion products and little depends on the explosion energy. In both cases of the non-relativistic and relativistic explosion, the reverse shock wave is strong in a spherical explosion and weak in a cylindrical one. The plane symmetric explosion does not generate the reverse shock wave.

    Notes: Abstract The paper is an investigation of the magnetohydrodynamics(MHD) of the quasi-radial accretion onto a rotating black hole. It is demonstrated that the nonlinear effects in the accretion flow accelerate the rate of expansion of the Alfven mode. The accretion flow becomes unstable at the weak strength of magnetic field which is about one-thirtieth of the expected value by the linear theory.
