The Magnetohydrodynamics of Convection-Dominated Accretion Flows
Radiatively inefficient accretion flows onto black holes are unstable due to both an outwardly decreasing entropy (“convection”) and an outwardly decreasing rotation rate (the “magnetorotational instability”, MRI). Using a linear magnetohydrodynamic stability analysis, we show that long-wavelength modes with λ/H ≫ β are primarily destabilized by the entropy gradient and that such “convective” m...
متن کاملSpectral Models of Convection-Dominated Accretion Flows
For small values of the dimensionless viscosity parameter, namely α ∼< 0.1, the dynamics of non-radiating accretion flows is dominated by convection; convection strongly suppresses the accretion of matter onto the central object and transports a luminosity ∼ 10 − 10Ṁc from small to large radii in the flow. A fraction of this convective luminosity is likely to be radiated at large radii via ther...
متن کاملMagnetically Torqued Neutrino-Dominated Accretion Flows for Gamma-ray Bursts
Recent observations and theoretical work on gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) favor the central engine model of a Kerr black hole (BH) surrounded by a magnetized neutrino-dominated accretion flow (NDAF). The magnetic coupling between the BH and disk through a large-scale closed magnetic field exerts a torque on the disk, and transports the rotational energy from the BH to the disk. We investigate the pro...
متن کاملA Simplified Solution for Advection Dominated Accretion Flows with Outflow
The existence of outflow in the advection dominated accretion flows has been confirmed by both numerical simulations and observations. The outow models for ADAF have been investigated by several groups with a simple self similar solution. But this solution is inaccurate at the inner regions and can not explain the emitted spectrum of the flow; so, it is necessary to obtain a global solution for...
متن کاملParticle Heating in Advection-dominated Accretion Flows
I review particle heating by MHD turbulence in collision-less plasmas appropriate to advection-dominated accretion flows. These considerations suggest that the preferential turbulent heating of protons assumed by theoretical models is only achieved for relatively subthermal magnetic fields.
