Numerical simulations of rotating bondi accretion flows
We explore through numerical simulations the structure formed around a black hole as a consequence of supersonic Bondi accretion with a small, finite angular momentum. The structure accompanies an accretion shock, inside which the flow is subsonic and is

ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a severe form of dementia, which occurrence increases with age and lifestyle conditions. It is characterized by amyloid protein accumulation forming senile plaques, hyperphosphorylated tau protein forming neurofibrillary tangles, neuroinflammation, and oxidative stress, leading to synapse loss and cell death ...

Shaped by context: Evolutionary trajectories of desiccation tolerance in land plants
Abstract Desiccation tolerance (DT), the ability to survive near‐complete cellular dehydration, is widespread in diaspores but rare in the vegetative tissues of land plants. The patchy and punctuated phylogenetic distribution of vegetative desiccation tolerance (VDT) suggests that the trait is both ancient and recurrent, yet the evolutionary ...

Old pre-main-sequence stars - disc reformation by Bondi-Hoyle accretion [PDF]
Young stars show evidence of accretion discs which evolve quickly and disperse with an e-folding time of ~3 Myr. This is in striking contrast with recent observations that suggest evidence of numerous >30 Myr old stars with an accretion disc in large ...

ABSTRACT Runoff of phosphorus (P) from agricultural fields is a leading contributor to impairment of freshwater quality. The influence of soil structure, and of mechanisms of runoff generation on forms of P losses is not fully understood. This study investigated P mobilisation from grassland soils in a controlled laboratory rainfall simulation.

Self-limited Accretion onto Embedded Binaries in a Uniform Medium
We study accretion from a uniform gas at rest onto equal-mass binaries—the binary Bondi problem—as a function of the adiabatic index γ and compactness ξ ≡ R _B / a , where R _B is the Bondi radius of the binary and a is the component separation.

Bondi accretion for adiabatic flows onto a massive black hole with an accretion disc
We present the classical Bondi accretion theory for the case of non-isothermal accretion processes onto a supermassive black hole (SMBH), including the effects of X-ray heating and the radiation force due to electron scattering and spectral lines.

Protoplanetary Disks from Pre-Main Sequence Bondi-Hoyle Accretion [PDF]
Protoplanetary disks are routinely described as finite mass reservoirs left over by the gravitational collapse of the protostar, an assumption that strongly constrains both disk evolution and planet formation models. We propose a different scenario where

Stars and compact objects embedded in accretion disks of active galactic nuclei (AGNs), dubbed accretion-modified stars (AMSs), often experience hyper-Eddington accretion in the dense gas environment, resulting in powerful outflows as the Bondi explosion

Accretion and Nuclear Activity of Quiescent Supermassive Black Holes. II. Optical Study and Interpretation [PDF]
Our X-ray study of the nuclear activity in a new sample of six quiescent early-type galaxies, as well as in a larger sample from the literature, confirmed (Paper I) that the Bondi accretion rate of diffuse hot gas is not a good indicator of the SMBH X ...
