Computation of mass loss from viscous accretion disc in presence of cooling

چکیده
Rotating accretion flow may undergo centrifugal pressure mediated shock transition even in presence of various dissipative processes, such as viscosity and cooling mechanism. The extra thermal gradient force along the vertical direction in the post shock flow drives a part of the accreting matter as bipolar outflows which are believed to be the precursor of relativistic jets. We compute mass loss rates from a viscous accretion disc in presence of synchrotron cooling in terms of the inflow parameters. We show cooling significantly affects the mass outflow rate, to the extent that, jets may be generated from flows with higher viscosity. We discuss that our formalism may be employed to explain observed jet power for a couple of black hole candidates. We also indicate that using our formalism, it is possible to connect the spectral properties of the disc with the rate of mass loss.

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...
متن کاملThermal Instability and Evaporation of Accretion Disc Atmospheres
We investigate the vertical structure of the outer layers of accretion discs in which the local viscous energy dissipation rate scales with the pressure as for standard ShakuraSunyaev discs. It has been pointed out by several authors that a thermal instability occurs in the outer layers of such discs when the gas pressure drops below a certain value. When the density becomes too low thermal equ...
متن کاملThe Influence of Hydrodynamical Winds on Hot Accretion Disk Solutions
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...
متن کاملPseudo-viscous modeling of self-gravitating discs and the formation of low mass ratio binaries
We present analytic models for the local structure of self-regulated self-gravit ating accretion discs that are subject to realistic cooling. Such an approach can be used to predict the secular evolution of self-gravitating discs (which can usefully be compared with future radiation hydrodynamical simulations) and to define various physical regimes as a function of radius and equivalent steady ...
متن کاملTesting the locality of transport in self-gravitating accretion discs
In this paper we examine the issue of characterising the transport associated with gravitational instabilities in relatively cold discs, discussing in particular the conditions under which it can be described within a local, viscous framework. We present the results of global, three-dimensional, SPH simulations of self-gravitating accretion discs, in which the disc is cooled using a simple para...
