Radiative Shocks in Rotating Accretion Flows around Black Holes
It is well known that the rotating accretion flows around black holes form shock waves close to the black holes, after the flow passes through the outer sonic point and can be virtually stopped by the centrifugal force. We examine numerically such shock waves in 1D and 2D accretion flows, taking account of the cooling and heating of gas and the radiation transport. The numerical results show th...
متن کاملNumerical models of rotating accretion flows around black holes
Numerical, two-dimensional, time-dependent hydrodynamical models of geometrically thick accretion discs around black holes are presented. Accretion flows with non-effective radiation cooling (ADAFs) can be both convectively stable or unstable depending on the value of the viscosity parameter α. The high viscosity flows (α ≃ 1) are stable and have a strong equatorial inflow and bipolar outflows....
متن کاملNucleosynthesis in Accretion Flows Around Black Holes
Significant nucleosynthesis is possible in the centrifugal pressure-supported dense and hot region of the accretion flows which deviate from Keplerian disks around black holes. We compute composition changes and energy generations due to such nuclear processes. We use a network containing 255 species and follow the changes in composition. Highly viscous, high-accretion-rate flows deviate from a...
متن کاملHorizon-Penetrating Transonic Accretion Disks around Rotating Black Holes
The stationary hydrodynamic equations for the transonic accretion disks and flows around rotating black holes are presented by using the Kerr-Schild coordinate where there is no coordinate singularity at the event horizon. We use two types of the causal viscosity prescription, and the boundary conditions for the transonic accretion flows are given at the sonic point. For one type of the causal ...
متن کاملAccretion flows around stellar mass black holes and neutron stars
In this review, I summarize the main X-ray/hard X-ray properties of the accretion flows around black holes and neutron stars based on recent broad-band spectral and timing observations performed by the BeppoSAX and Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer satellites. Emphasizing the spectral and timing similarities observed between black holes and neutron stars, I discuss on the most likely accretion geomet...
