The dependence of the viscosity in accretion discs
We estimate the Shakura-Sunyaev viscosity parameter alpha for diierent values of the shear/vorticity ratio, =!, using local simulations of dynamo-generated turbulence. We nd that the time average of is approximately proportional to =! (at least for =! < 10). We point out that this result may have important implications for the properties of thick accretion discs, because there ! is small and wo...

متن کاملAccretion of the Moon from non-canonical discs.
Impacts that leave the Earth-Moon system with a large excess in angular momentum have recently been advocated as a means of generating a protolunar disc with a composition that is nearly identical to that of the Earth's mantle. We here investigate the accretion of the Moon from discs generated by such 'non-canonical' impacts, which are typically more compact than discs produced by canonical imp...
متن کاملModelling magnetised accretion discs
Some recent results are reviewed that lead us now to believe that accretion discs are basically always magnetised. The main components are Balbus-Hawley and Parker instabilities on the one hand and a dynamo process on the other. A mechanical model for the Balbus-Hawley instability is presented and analysed quantitatively. Three-dimensional simulations are discussed, especially the resulting mag...
متن کاملSelf-gravitating accretion discs
— I review recent progresses in the dynamics and the evolution of self-gravitating accretion discs. Accretion discs are a fundamental component of several astrophysical systems on very diverse scales, and can be found around supermassive black holes in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN), and also in our Galaxy around stellar mass compact objects and around young stars. Notwithstanding the specific di...
