Fast methods to track grain coagulation and ionization. III. Protostellar collapse with non-ideal MHD

Résumé

Dust grains influence many aspects of star formation, including planet formation, opacities for radiative transfer, chemistry, and the magnetic field via Ohmic, Hall, and ambipolar diffusion. The size distribution of the dust grains is the primary characteristic influencing all these aspects. Grain size increases by coagulation throughout the star formation process. We describe here numerical simulations of protostellar collapse using methods described in earlier papers of this series. We compute the evolution of the grain size distribution from coagulation and the non-ideal magnetohydrodynamics effects self-consistently and at low numerical cost. We find that the coagulation efficiency is mostly affected by the time spent in high-density regions. Starting from sub-micron radii, grain sizes reach more than 100 μm in an inner protoplanetary disk that is only 1000 years old. We also show that the growth of grains significantly affects the resistivities, and indirectly the dynamics and angular momentum of the disk.
