Truncated accretion discs in black hole X-ray binaries: dynamics and variability signatures

IK Dihingia, B Vaidya, C Fendt - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 2022 - academic.oup.com
Variable features in black hole X-ray binaries (BH-XRBs) are observed in different energy

Three-dimensional simulations of advective, sub-Keplerian accretion flow on to non-rotating black holes

SK Garain, J Kim - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
We study the time evolution of sub-Keplerian transonic accretion flow on to a non-rotating

Time delays between radio and X-ray and between narrow radio bands of Sgr A* flares in the shock oscillation model

T Okuda, CB Singh, R Aktar - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
We examine the time delay between radio and X-ray and between narrow radio frequency
flares in Sagittarius A*(Sgr A*), from analyses of the synchrotron, bremsstrahlung, and …

An Overview of Numerical Simulations in Accretion Physics

B Sarkar, L Devi, AJ Boruah - arXiv preprint arXiv:2409.14224, 2024 - arxiv.org
Accretion physics studies the process of gravitational capture of ambient matter by massive
stars. The background processes are very challenging to observe and measure due to the …

Radiative shock oscillation model for the long-term flares of Sgr A

T Okuda, CB Singh, R Aktar - Monthly Notices of the Royal …, 2022 - academic.oup.com
We examine time-dependent 2D relativistic radiation magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flows to
develop the shock oscillation model for the long-term flares of Sagittarius A*(Sgr A*) …
