چکیده

We study the two-dimensional structure of thin transonic accretion discs in the vicinity of a non-spinning black hole within the framework of hydrodynamical version of the Grad-Shafranov equation. Our analysis focuses on the region inside the marginally stable orbit (MSO), r < rms. We show that all components of the dynamical force in the disc become significant near the sonic surface and (especially) in the supersonic region. Under certain conditions, the disc structure can be far from radial, and we review the affected disc properties, in particular the role of the critical condition at the sonic surface. Finally, we present a simple model aimed at explaining quasi-periodical oscillations that have been observed in the infra-red and X-ray radiation of the Galactic Centre.

A Composite Finite Difference Scheme for Subsonic Transonic Flows (RESEARCH NOTE).

This paper presents a simple and computationally-efficient algorithm for solving steady two-dimensional subsonic and transonic compressible flow over an airfoil. This work uses an interactive viscous-inviscid solution by incorporating the viscous effects in a thin shear-layer. Boundary-layer approximation reduces the Navier-Stokes equations to a parabolic set of coupled, non-linear partial diff...

A comparison of one and two dimensional models of transonic accretion discs around collapsed objects

A comparison of one and two dimensional models of transonic accretion discs around collapsed objects ABSTRACT: We construct models of the inner part of a transonic adiabatic accretion disc assuming constant specific angular momentum taking the vertical structure fully into account. For comparison purposes, we construct the corresponding one dimensional viscous disc models derived under vertical...

Slim accretion discs: a model for ADAF-SLE transitions

We numerically construct slim, global, vertically integrated models of optically thin, transonic accretion discs around black holes, assuming a regularity condition at the sonic radius and boundary conditions at the outer radius of the disc and near the black hole. In agreement with several previous studies, we find two branches of shock-free solutions, in which the cooling is dominated either ...

بهینه سازی بهره اپتیکی در لایه های نازک دیودهای لیزری چاه کوانتومی

Advanced diode laser consists of a two dimensional thin layer which is about 10 nanometers size. Optical gain of thin layers has a great deal of importance in light amplification. Thin layers cause a modification in conduction and valance bands of bulk materials. · Subbands have been computed through effective mass equations. As a result of this method, particular effective masses are avai...
