Effect of plasma composition on accretion on to black holes

Indranil Chattopadhyay

Matter makes a transition from non-relativistic to relativistic regime, as it falls onto a black hole. We employ a relativistic equation of state, abbreviated as RC, to study multi…

Black Hole Accretion: From Quasars to Nano-Quasars

S. K. Chakrabarti

In this review we shall comment on a few recent findings which strengthen the view that the black hole accretion has substantial amount of sub-Keplerian component. The manifestatio…

The exact dynamical solution for two dust shells collapsing towards a black hole

Shuang Nan Zhang, Yuan Liu

The gravitational collapse of a star is an important issue both for general relativity and astrophysics, which is related to the well known "frozen star" paradox. Following the sem…
