arXiv:1511.04366 · doi:10.1093/mnras/stv2466

Abstract

We construct self-similar inflow-outflow solutions for a hot viscous-resistive accretion flow with large scale magnetic fields that have odd symmetry with respect to the equatorial plane in , and even symmetry in and . Following previous authors, we also assume that the polar velocity is nonzero. We focus on four parameters: , (the plasma beta parameters for associated with magnetic field components at the equatorial plane), the magnetic resistivity , and the density index . The resulting flow solutions are divided into two parts consisting of an inflow region with a negative radial velocity () and an outflow region with . Our results show that stronger outflows emerge for smaller ( for ) and larger values of , and .
