中文摘要Global stationary configurations of both aligned and logarithmic spiral magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) perturbations are constructed analytically within an axisymmetric background of razor-thin scale-free gas disc, which is embedded in an axisymmetric gravitational potential of a dark matter halo and involves an isopedic magnetic field almost vertically threaded through the disc plane. The scale-free index beta of the disc rotation speed v(theta) proportional to R-beta falls in the range of (-1/2, 1/2) where R is the cylindrical radius. With the holding-back of a deep background dark matter halo potential, the isopedic magnetic field may be strong enough to allow for the magnetic tension force overtaking the disc self-gravity, which can significantly influence global stationary MHD perturbation configurations and stability properties of the scale-free disc system. Only for stationary logarithmic spiral MHD perturbations with a perturbation scale-free index beta(1) = 1/4 or for aligned stationary MHD perturbations, can the MHD disc maintain a constant radial flux of angular momentum. The variable radial flux of angular momentum in the radial direction corresponds to a complex dispersion relation. The marginal instabilities for axisymmetric MHD disturbances are also examined for a special case as an example. When the magnetic tension force overtakes the disc self-gravity, the scale-free disc can be completely stable against axisymmetric MHD disturbances of all wavelengths. We predict the possible existence of an isopedically magnetized gas disc system in rotation primarily confined by a massive dark matter halo potential.
