Global Slim Accretion Disk Solutions Revisited

Cheng-Liang Jiao, Li Xue, Wei-Min Gu +1

We show that there exists a maximal possible accretion rate, beyond which global slim disk solutions cannot be constructed because in the vertical direction the gravitational force…

Constraints on the Mass Accretion Rate of Neutrino-Cooled Disks in Gamma-Ray Bursts

Tong Liu, Wei-Min Gu, Li Xue +2

We present a unified description of all the three known classes of optically thick accretion disks around black holes, namely Shakura-Sunyaev disks, slim disks, and neutrino-domina…

Structure and Luminosity of Neutrino-cooled Accretion Disks

Tong Liu, Wei-Min Gu, Li Xue +1

Neutrino-cooled hyperaccretion disks around stellar mass black holes are plausible candidates for the central engine of gamma-ray bursts. We calculate the one-dimensional structure…

A Note on the Slim Accretion Disk Model

Wei-Min Gu, Ju-Fu Lu

We show that when the gravitational force is correctly calculated in dealing with the vertical hydrostatic equilibrium of black hole accretion disks, the relationship that is valid…

Neutrino-Dominated Accretion Models for Gamma-Ray Bursts: Effects of General Relativity and Neutrino Opacity

Wei-Min Gu, Tong Liu, Ju-Fu Lu

We first refine the fixed concept in the literature that the usage of the Newtonian potential in studies of black hole accretion is invalid and the general relativistic effect must…

Non-axisymmetric instabilities in shocked adiabatic accretion flows

Wei-Min Gu, Ju-Fu Lu

We investigate the linear stability of a shocked accretion flow onto a black hole in the adiabatic limit. Our linear analyses and numerical calculations show that, despite the post…
