We compare different examples of spherical accretion onto a gravitating mass. Limiting cases include the accretion of a collisionally dominated fluid and the accretion of collisionless particles.

Hoyle-Lyttleton Accretion onto Accretion Disks [PDF]
We investigate Hoyle-Lyttleton accretion for the case where the central source is a luminous accretion disk. %In classical Hoyle-Lyttleton accretion onto a ``spherical'' source, accretion takes place in an axially symmetric manner around a so-called ...

We study steady-state spherically symmetric accretion of a galileon field onto a Schwarzschild black hole in the test fluid approximation. The galileon is assumed to undergo a stage of cosmological evolution, thus setting a non-trivial boundary condition

Accretion Disc Particle Accretion in Major Merger Simulations [PDF]
A recent approach to simulating localized feedback from active galactic nuclei by Power et al. (2011) uses an accretion disc particle to represent both the black hole and its accretion disc.

A pebble accretion model for the formation of the terrestrial planets in the Solar System [PDF]
A new theory for formation of Earth by accretion of small pebbles explains how our planet acquired its water and carbon. Pebbles of millimeter sizes are abundant in protoplanetary discs around young stars. Chondrules inside primitive meteorites—formed by

Accrete, Accrete, Accrete… Bang! (and repeat): The remarkable Recurrent Novae [PDF]
All novae recur, but only a handful have been observed in eruption more than once. These systems, the recurrent novae (RNe), are among the most extreme examples of novae. RNe have long been thought of as potential type Ia supernova progenitors, and their claim to this 'accolade' has recently been strengthened. In this short review RNe will be presented

The Radiative Transfer in Accretion Discs with Linear Plank Function: Role of Scattering Effect [PDF]
Radiative transfer in a geometrically thin accretion disc with fnite optical depth is considered under the plane-parallel approximation. The Eddington factor that is defned as the ratio of the mean intensity to radiation stress tensor, is assumed be ...

Reference Array and Design Consideration for the Next-Generation Event Horizon Telescope
We describe the process to design, architect, and implement a transformative enhancement of the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT). This program—the next-generation Event Horizon Telescope (ngEHT)—will form a networked global array of radio dishes capable of ...
