Relativistic Bondi accretion for stiff equations of state [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021
ABSTRACT We revisit Bondi accretion – steady-state, adiabatic, spherical gas flow on to a Schwarzschild black hole at rest in an asymptotically homogeneous medium – for stiff polytropic equations of state (EOSs) with adiabatic indices Γ > 5/3.

Bridging Scales in Black Hole Accretion and Feedback: Magnetized Bondi Accretion in 3D GRMHD

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Fueling and feedback couple supermassive black holes (SMBHs) to their host galaxies across many orders of magnitude in spatial and temporal scales, making this problem notoriously challenging to simulate. We use a multi-zone computational method based on

Hot Accretion onto Black Holes with Outflow [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2018
Classic Bondi accretion flow can be generalized to rotating viscous accretion flow. Study of hot accretion flow onto black holes show that its physical charateristics change from Bondi-like for small gas angular momentum to disk-like for Keperian gas ...

An Analytical Theory for the Growth from Planetesimals to Planets by Polydisperse Pebble Accretion

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Pebble accretion is recognized as a significant accelerator of planet formation. Yet only formulae for single-sized (monodisperse) distribution have been derived in the literature.

A New Hydrodynamic Spherical Accretion Exact Solution and Its Quasi-spherical Perturbations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present an exact γ = 5/3 spherical accretion solution that modifies the Bondi boundary condition of $\rho \to \mathrm{constant}$ as r → ∞ to ρ → 0 as r → ∞.

Brown dwarf accretion: Nonconventional star formation over very long timescales [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2005
We investigate the process of accretion of interstellar gas by the Galactic population of brown dwarfs over very long timescales typical for physical eschatology.

Toward Horizon-scale Accretion onto Supermassive Black Holes in Elliptical Galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present high-resolution, three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations of the fueling of supermassive black holes in elliptical galaxies from a turbulent medium on galactic scales, taking M87* as a typical case.

How Ram Pressure Drives Radial Gas Motions in the Surviving Disk

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Galaxy evolution can be dramatically affected by the environment, especially by the dense environment of a galaxy cluster. Recent observational studies show that massive galaxies undergoing strong ram-pressure stripping (RPS) have an enhanced frequency ...

Effects of Heat Conduction on Blocking off the Super-Eddington Growth of Black Holes at High Redshift

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We investigate the effect of conductive heating of the gas surrounding a geometrically thick accretion disk on the growth of a black hole (BH) at high redshift.
