Radiatively Driven Plasma Jets around Compact Objects
Matter accreting onto black holes may develop shocks due to the centrifugal barrier. A part of inflowing matter in the post-shock flow is deflected along the axis in the form of jets. Post-shock flow which behaves like a Compton cloud has ‘hot’ electrons emiting high energy photons. We study the effect of these ‘hot’ photons on the outflowing matter. Radiation from this region could accelerate ...
متن کاملLense-thirring Precession of Accretion Disks around Compact Objects
Misaligned accretion disks surrounding rotating compact objects experience a torque due to the LenseThirring effect, which leads to precession of the inner disk. It has been suggested that this effect could be responsible for some low frequency Quasi-Periodic Oscillations observed in the X-ray lightcurves of neutron star and galactic black hole systems. We investigate this possibility via time-...
متن کاملMass Outflow Rate From Advective Accretion Disks around Compact Objects
We compute mass outflow rates from advective accretion disks around compact objects, such as neutron stars and black holes. These computations, for the first time, are done using combinations of exact transonic inflow and outflow solutions which may or may not form standing shock waves. Assuming that the bulk of the outflow is from the effective boundary layers of these objects, we find that th...
متن کاملPhysics of accretion flows around compact objects
Several physical and astrophysical problems related to accretion onto black holes and neutron stars are shortly reviewed. I discuss the observed differences between these two types of compact objects in quiescent Soft X-ray Transients. Then I review the status of various non-standard objects suggested as an alternative to black-holes. Finally I present new results and suggestion about the natur...
متن کاملOn the Formation of Compact Stellar Disks Around
The recent identification of one or two sub-parsec disks of young, massive stars orbiting the ∼ 4 × 10 M⊙ black hole Sgr A* has prompted an “in-situ” scenario for star formation in disks of gas formed from a cloud captured from the Galactic center environment. To date there has been no explanation given for the low angular momentum of the disks relative to clouds passing close to the center. He...
