چکیده

The effect of a possible hydrodynamical wind on the nature of hot accretion disk solutions is studied. It is found that the advection dominated branch, in the presence of a wind, maintains the self-similar solution for the disk structure with the temperature, θ ∝ 1/r, optical depth τ ∝ r and accretion rate ṁ ∝ r . Based on global solutions cooling due to wind energy loss and advection are found to be equally important. For a wide range of viscosity and wind parameters, the temperature is about one-tenth of the virial value and P ≈ 0.9, independent of the mass accretion rate and radius. In the context of cooling by unsaturated Comptonization of soft photons, solutions also exist where radiative cooling, advection, and wind cooling are important. In this case, wind regulated solutions are possible. Here, the radial dependence of the critical mass accretion rate above which solutions do not exist is unchanged from those solutions without winds. The wind/advection dominated solutions are locally unstable to a new type of instability called “wind driven insbility” where the presence of a wind causes the disk to be unstable to long wavelength perturbations of the surface density. The growth rate of this instability is inversely proportional to the ratio of the radiative cooling to the gravitational energy dissipation rates and it can grow on a timescale much longer than the viscous timescale in the disk for sufficiently small radiative cooling efficiencies.

The Role of Thermal Conduction in Accretion Disks with Outflows

In this work we solve the set of hydrodynamical equations for accretion disks in the spherical coordinates (r,θ,ϕ) to obtain the explicit structure along θ direction. We study a two-dimensional advective accretion disc in the presence of thermal conduction. We find self-similar solutions for an axisymmetric, rotating, steady, viscous-resistive disk. We show that the global structure of an advec...

Complex wind dynamics and ionization structure in symbiotic binaries

Aspects of the wind-dynamics in symbiotic binaries, colliding winds and accretion, are reviewed. Inconsistencies between theory and observations of the hot star wind are discussed. If the hot star wind were governed by CAK theory, nearly all symbiotics would be colliding wind binaries. For the case of colliding winds, 3D hydrodynamical simulations reveal that the matter distribution is spirally...

General relativistic hydrodynamic flows around a static compact object in final stages of accretion flow

Dynamics of stationary axisymmetric configuration of the viscous accreting fluids surrounding a non-rotating compact object in final stages of accretion flow is presented here. For the special case of thin disk approximation, the relativistic fluid equations ignoring self-gravity of the disk are derived in Schwarzschild geometry. For two different state equations, two sets of self-consistent an...

Effect of the temperature profile of the accretion disk on the structure of jets and outflows around protostars

Magnetic fields play an important role in creating, driving, and in the evolution of outflows and jets from protostars and accretion disks. On the other hand, the temperature profile of the accretion disks may also affect the structure of the magnetic field and outflows. In this paper, we use the self-similar method in cylindrical coordinates to investigate the effect of the temperature profile...
