Misalignment of the microquasar V4641 Sgr (SAX J1819.3--2525)
Rebecca G. Martin, Rubens C. Reis, J. E. Pringle
In the microquasar V4641 Sgr the spin of the black hole is thought to be misaligned with the binary orbital axis. The accretion disc aligns with the black hole spin by the Lense-Th…
Alignment Timescale of the Microquasar GRO J1655-40
Rebecca G. Martin, Christopher A. Tout, J. E. Pringle
The microquasar GRO J1655-40 has a black hole with spin angular momentum apparently misaligned to the orbital plane of its companion star. We analytically model the system with a s…
Disc evolution and the relationship between and in T Tauri stars
I. Tilling, C. J. Clarke, J. E. Pringle +1
We investigate the evolution of accretion luminosity and stellar luminosity in pre-mainsequence stars. We make the assumption that when the star appears as…
Alignment and Precession of a Black Hole with a Warped Accretion Disc
Rebecca G. Martin, J. E. Pringle, Christopher A. Tout
We consider the shape of an accretion disc whose outer regions are misaligned with the spin axis of a central black hole and calculate the steady state form of the warped disc in t…
Planetesimal formation via fragmentation in self-gravitating protoplanetary discs
W. K. M. Rice, G. Lodato, J. E. Pringle +2
An unsolved issue in the standard core accretion model for gaseous planet formation is how kilometre-sized planetesimals form from, initially, micron-sized dust grains. Solid growt…
Aligning spinning black holes and accretion discs
A. R. King, S. H. Lubow, G. I. Ogilvie +1
We consider the alignment torque between a spinning black hole and an accretion disc whose angular momenta are misaligned. This situation must hold initially in almost all gas accr…
