Hydrodynamical simulation of wind production from hot accretion flows in tidal disruption events

Mingjun Liu, De-Fu Bu, Xiao-Hong Yang +5

Wind is a key mechanism for supermassive black hole (SMBH) feedback to their host galaxies. In tidal disruption events (TDEs), black holes spend most of their time accreting at hig…

Accretion with two-phase gas supply and its application in black hole X-ray binaries

Yilong Wang, B. F. Liu, Mingjun Liu

Accretion in black hole X-ray binaries is commonly believed to be supplied by the Roche lobe overflow or the stellar wind. The former is thought to form a geometrically thin disc w…

A fast powerful X-ray transient from possible tidal disruption of a white dwarf

Dongyue Li, Wenda Zhang, Jun Yang +97

Stars captured by black holes (BHs) can be torn apart by strong tidal forces, producing electromagnetic flares. To date, more than 100 tidal disruption events (TDEs) have been obse…

The effectively optically thin accretion flow and its implication in supermassive black holes

Mingjun Liu, B. F. Liu, Yilong Wang +2

Based on a unified description of various accretion flows, we find a long-ignored solution - the effectively optically thin accretion flow, occurring at accretion rates around Eddi…

A generalized solution for advection-dominated accretion flow, standard disc, and slim disc

Mingjun Liu, B. F. Liu, Yilong Wang +2

Aiming at a general description of four basic solutions describing the accretion processes, i.e., the Shakura-Sunyaev thin disc (SSD), the Shapiro-Lightman-Eardley solution (SLE),…

Detection of an Orphan X-ray Flare from a Blazar Candidate EP240709a with Einstein Probe

Mingjun Liu, Yijia Zhang, Yun Wang +49

Blazars are often observed to flare across multiple wavelengths. Orphan flares from blazars have been only detected a few times, providing an opportunity to understand the structur…
