Three-Dimensional Hydrodynamic Bondi-Hoyle Accretion. V. Specific Heat Ratio 1.01, Nearly Isothermal Flow

M. Ruffert

We investigate the hydrodynamics of three-dimensional classical Bondi-Hoyle accretion. A totally absorbing sphere of different sizes (1, 0.1 and 0.02 accretion radii) moves at diff…
