Violent Relaxation Around a Massive Black Hole
I present galaxy models resulting from violent relaxation in the presence of a pre-existing black hole. The models are computed by maximizing the entropy of the stellar dynamical system. I show that their properties are very similar to those of adiabatic growth models for a suitable choice of parameters. This suggests that observations of nuclear light profiles and kinematics alone may not be s...
متن کاملRadiation emitted from a source rotating around a black hole
We analyze the radiation emitted from a scalar source rotating around a Schwarzschild black hole using the frame work of quantum field theory at the tree level. We show that for relativistic circular orbits the emitted power is about 20% to 30% smaller than what would be obtained in Minkowski spacetime. We also show that most of the emitted energy escapes to infinity. Our formalism can readily ...
متن کاملBinary Dynamics near a Massive Black Hole
We analyze the dynamical evolution of binary stars that interact with a static background of single stars in the environment of a massive black hole (MBH). All stars are considered to be single mass, Newtonian point particles. We follow the evolution of the energy E and angular momentum J of the center of mass of the binaries with respect to the MBH, as well as their internal semi-major axis a,...
متن کاملDissipative accretion flows around a rotating black hole
We study the dynamical structure of a cooling dominated rotating accretion flow around a spinning black hole. We show that non-linear phenomena such as shock waves can be studied in terms of only three flow parameters, namely, the specific energy (E), the specific angular momentum (λ) and the accretion rate (ṁ) of the flow. We present all possible accretion solutions. We find that a significant...
