Turbulent Comptonization in Relativistic Accretion Disks
Turbulent Comptonization, a potentially important damping and radiation mechanism in relativistic accretion flows, is discussed. Particular emphasis is placed on the physical basis, relative importance, and thermodynamics of turbulent Comptonization. The effects of metal-absorption opacity on the spectral component resulting from turbulent Comptonization is considered as well. 1. Overview of Th...
متن کاملThermal Equilibrium Curves and Turbulent Mixing in Keplerian Accretion Disks
We consider vertical heat transport in Keplerian accretion disks, including the effects of radiation, convection, and turbulent mixing driven by the Balbus-Hawley instability, in astronomical systems ranging from dwarf novae (DNe), and soft X-ray transients (SXTs), to active galactic nuclei (AGN). In order to account for the interplay between convective and turbulent energy transport in a shear...
متن کاملTurbulent Angular Momentum Transport in Weakly-ionized Accretion Disks
Accretion disks are ubiquitous in the universe. Although difficult to observe directly, their presence is often inferred from the unique signature they imprint on the spectra of the systems in which they are observed. In addition, many properties of accretion-disk systems that would be otherwise mysterious are easily accounted for by the presence of matter accreting (accumulating) onto a centra...
متن کاملTurbulent viscosity in clumpy accretion disks Application to the Galaxy
The equilibrium state of a turbulent clumpy gas disk is analytically investigated. The disk consists of distinct self-gravitating clouds. Gravitational cloud–cloud interactions transfer energy over spatial scales and produce a viscosity, which allows mass accretion in the gas disk. Turbulence is assumed to be generated by instabilities involving self-gravitation and to be maintained by the ener...
متن کاملThe Role of Thermal Conduction in Accretion Disks with Outflows
In this work we solve the set of hydrodynamical equations for accretion disks in the spherical coordinates (r,θ,ϕ) to obtain the explicit structure along θ direction. We study a two-dimensional advective accretion disc in the presence of thermal conduction. We find self-similar solutions for an axisymmetric, rotating, steady, viscous-resistive disk. We show that the global structure of an advec...
