Instability of generalised AdS black holes and thermal field theory
We study black holes in AdS-like spacetimes, with the horizon given by an arbitrary positive curvature Einstein metric. A criterion for classical instability of such black holes is found in the large and small black hole limits. Examples of large unstable black holes have a Böhm metric as the horizon. These, classically unstable, large black holes are locally thermodynamically stable. The gravi...
متن کاملThe thermal explosion revisited.
The classical problem of the thermal explosion in a long cylindrical vessel is modified so that only a fraction alpha of its wall is ideally thermally conducting while the remaining fraction 1-alpha is thermally isolated. Partial isolation of the wall naturally reduces the critical radius of the vessel. Most interesting is the case when the structure of the boundary is a periodic one, so that t...
متن کاملThe Magnetoviscous-Thermal Instability
Accretion flows onto underluminous black holes, such as Sagittarius A* at the center of our galaxy, are dilute (mildly collisional to highly collisionless), optically thin, and radiatively inefficient. Therefore, the accretion properties of such dilute flows are expected to be modified by their large viscosities and thermal conductivities. Second, turbulence within these systems needs to transp...
متن کاملGlobal Dynamics of Advection-dominated Accretion Revisited
We numerically solve the set of dynamical equations describing advectiondominated accretion flows (ADAF) around black holes, using a method similar to that of Chakrabarti (1996a). We choose the sonic radius of the flow Rs and the integration constant in angular momentum equation j as free parameters, and integrate the equations from the sonic point inwards to see if the solution can extend supe...
متن کاملTemperature Advection by Tropical Instability Waves
A numerical model of the tropical Pacific Ocean is used to investigate the processes that cause the horizontal temperature advection of tropical instability waves (TIWs). It is found that their temperature advection cannot be explained by the processes on which the mixing length paradigm is based. Horizontal mixing of temperature across the equatorial SST front does happen, but it is small rela...
