Pseudo-Schwarzschild description of transonic spherical accretion onto compact objects
A number of ‘modified’ Newtonian potentials of various forms are available in the literature which accurately approximate some general relativistic effects important for studying accretion discs around a Schwarzschild black hole. Such potentials may be called ‘pseudo-Schwarzschild’ potentials because they nicely mimic the space-time around a non-rotating/slowly rotating compact object. In this ...
متن کاملOn Some Transonic Aspects of General Relativistic Spherical Accretion onto Schwarzschild Black Holes
The equations governing general relativistic, spherically symmetric, hydrodynamic accretion of polytropic fluid onto black holes are solved in Schwarzschild metric to investigate some of the transonic properties of the flow. Only stationary solutions are discussed. For such accretion, it has been shown that real physical sonic points may form even for flow with γ < 4
متن کاملDifferent manifestations of accretion onto compact objects
Millihertz quasi-periodic oscillations (mHz QPOs) reported in three neutronstar low mass X-ray binaries have been suggested to be a mode of marginally stable nuclear burning on the neutron star surface. In this Letter, we show that close to the transition between the island and the banana state, 4U 1636– 53 shows mHz QPOs whose frequency systematically decreases with time until the oscillations...
متن کاملTransonic properties of the accretion disk around compact objects
An accretion flow is necessarily transonic around a black hole. However, around a neutron star it may or may not be transonic, depending on the inner disk boundary conditions influenced by the neutron star. I will discuss various transonic behavior of the disk fluid in general relativistic (or pseudo general relativistic) framework. I will address that there are four types of sonic/critical poi...
متن کاملAcoustic perturbations on steady spherical accretion in Schwarzschild geometry
The stationary background flow in the spherically symmetric infall of a compressible fluid, coupled to the space-time defined by the static Schwarzschild metric, has been subjected to linearized acoustic perturbations. The perturbative procedure is based on the continuity condition and it shows that the coupling of the flow with the geometry of space-time brings about greater stability for the ...
