Radiatively driven electron - positron jets from two component accretion flows
Matter accreting onto black holes has long been known to have standing or oscillating shock waves. The post-shock matter puffs up in the form of a torus, which intercepts soft photons from the outer Keplerian disc and inverse Comptonizes to produce hard photons. The post-shock region also produces jets. We study the interaction of both hard photons and soft photons, with onaxis electron-positro...
متن کاملRadiatively driven rotating pair-plasma jets from two component accretion flows
Centrifugal pressure of matter spiralling onto black holes, have long been known to produce standing or oscillating shocks. The post-shock disc puffs up in the form of a torus, which intercepts soft photons from the outer Keplerian disc and inverse Comptonizes them to produce hard photons. The post-shock region also produces jets. We study the interaction of both hard photons and soft photons, ...
متن کاملConstraining Radiatively Inefficient Accretion Flows with Polarization
The low-luminosity black hole Sgr A* provides a testbed for models of Radiatively Inefficient Accretion Flows (RIAFs). Recent sub-millimeter linear polarization measurements of Sgr A* have provided evidence that the electrons in the accretion flow are relativistic over a large range of radii. Here, we show that these high temperatures result in elliptical plasma normal modes. Thus, polarized mi...
متن کاملRadiatively Driven Plasma Jets around Compact Objects
Matter accreting onto black holes may develop shocks due to the centrifugal barrier. A part of inflowing matter in the post-shock flow is deflected along the axis in the form of jets. Post-shock flow which behaves like a Compton cloud has ‘hot’ electrons emiting high energy photons. We study the effect of these ‘hot’ photons on the outflowing matter. Radiation from this region could accelerate ...
متن کاملRadiatively Driven Jets around Black Holes
The hot, puffed up, post-shock region of an advective disc is the source of high energy photons and also the jets and outflows. We study the relativistic equations of motion of jets as these high energy photons interact with them. We show that the much discussed terminal velocity of jets depends on the comparative value of radiative energy density, flux and the radiative pressure. We show that ...
