Hot Spots in Sgr A* Accretion Disk: Hydrodynamic Insights
نویسندگان
چکیده
The recent image of our galaxy's supermassive black hole Sgr A* derived from the 7 April 2017 data Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration shows multiple hot spots in its accretion disk. Using analytical framework, we demonstrate that observed may not be disjoint elements but causally linked components ("petals") one rotating quasi-stationary macro-structure formed thermo-vorticial field within

The frozen ( inactive ) disk in Sgr A ∗ : freezing the accretion of the hot gas too ?
The black hole (BH) in our Galactic Center (GC) is extremely underluminous for the amount of hot gas available for the BH consumption. Theoretical understanding of this fact rests on a likely but not entirely certain assumption that the electrons in the accreting gas are much cooler than the protons. In this case the hot gas as a whole is too hot to accrete, and is too tenous to radiate away it...
متن کاملThree-dimensional Simulations of Disk Accretion to an Inclined Dipole: Ii. Hot Spots and Variability
The physics of the “hot spots” on stellar surfaces and the associated variability of accreting magnetized rotating stars is investigated for the first time using fully three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations. The magnetic moment of the star μ is inclined relative to its rotation axis Ω by an angle Θ (we will call this angle the “misalignment angle”) while the disk’s rotation axis is p...
متن کاملHot High - Mass Accretion Disk Candidates
To better understand the physical properties of accretion disks in high-mass star formation, we present a study of a dozen high-mass accretion disk candidates observed at high spatial resolution with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) in the high-excitation (4,4) and (5,5) lines of NH 3. All of our originally selected sources were detected in both NH 3 transitions, directly associated...
متن کاملImaging Bright Spots in the Accretion Flow Near the Black Hole Horizon of Sgr A*
Images from the vicinity of the black hole horizon at the Galactic centre (Sgr A*) could be obtained in the near future with a Very Large Baseline Array of sub-millimetre telescopes. The recently observed short-term infrared and X-ray variability of the emission from Sgr A* implies that the accretion flow near the black hole is clumpy or unsteady. We calculate the appearance of a compact emissi...
متن کاملRadiation Feedback in Hot Accretion-Disk Corona Models
We present a detailed study of the observable effects of photoionization and Comptonization of line and continuum radiation from a cold accretion disk with a thin, warm, photoionized transition layer in the framework of self-consistent accretion-disk corona models for Galactic black-hole candidates. We use an iterative method to treat the non-linear radiation feedback between the transition lay...
