An analytic toy model for relativistic accretion in Kerr spacetime
Emilio Tejeda, Paul A. Taylor, John C. Miller
We present a relativistic model for the stationary axisymmetric accretion flow of a rotating cloud of non-interacting particles falling onto a Kerr black hole. Based on a ballistic…
Measuring the Effects of Artificial Viscosity in SPH Simulations of Rotating Fluid Flows
Paul A. Taylor, John C. Miller
A commonly cited drawback of SPH is the introduction of spurious shear viscosity by the artificial viscosity term in situations involving rotation. Existing approaches for quantify…
Long duration gamma-ray bursts: hydrodynamic instabilities in collapsar disks
Paul A. Taylor, John C. Miller, Philipp Podsiadlowski
We present 3D numerical simulations of the early evolution of long-duration gamma-ray bursts in the collapsar scenario. Starting from the core-collapse of a realistic progenitor mo…
Migration of Asteroidal Dust
S. I. Ipatov, J. C. Mather, P. A. Taylor
We numerically investigate the migration of dust particles with initial orbits close to those of the numbered asteroids. The fraction of silicate particles that collided with the E…
