Symposium - International Astronomical Union, 1986 Flare activity on the sun may be attributed to the distortion of coronal magnetic field caused primarily by vortical (Shearing) photospheric motion. If an accretion disk is permeated by a magnetic field, the strong differential rotation of the disk will lead to similar stressing of the magnetosphere, and one may expect similar flare activity to occur ...

Dissipationless disk accretion [PDF]
Astronomy Reports, 2005 17 pages, 6 figures, published in Astronomy Reports, Vol.49, No.1, 2005, p.57 (submitted September 13, 2003). Unfortunately, we did not upload the paper to astro-ph before, but since the topic is now of interest we feel that the paper would benefit the ...

Accretion disk instabilities [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1986 In this article we discuss two instabilities of stationary accretion disks which lead to an understanding of observed light variations in accretion disk systems, the dwarf novae and the rapid burster MXB 17030-335. The accretion disks in these systems avoid instability at the cost of stationarity and perform stable cycles in which sudden changes of the

Modelling accretion in transitional disks [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2013 Transitional disks are protoplanetary disk around young stars that display inner holes in the dust distribution within a few AU, which is accompanied nevertheless by some gas accretion onto the central star. These cavities could possibly be created by the presence of one or more massive planets. If the gap is created by planets and gas is still present

Accretion Disk Instabilities [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1993 AbstractBasic properties of accretion disk instabilities are summarized. We first explain the standard disk model by Shakura and Sunyaev. In this model, the dominant sources of viscosity are assumed to be chaotic magnetic fields and turbulence in gas flow, and the magnitude of viscosity is prescribed by so-called a model. It is then possible to build a

Accretion Disk Evolution [PDF]
International Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1987 AbstractThree aspects of mass transfer instability models of dwarf novae are examined. The hydrodynamic development of instabilities in the secondary are examined within Roche geometry and shown to extend at least a few degrees away from the line of centres.
