Low-angular-momentum accretion shocks can power weak-to-moderate X-ray flares from SgrA*
Samik Mitra, Bożena Czerny, Michal Zajaček +1
X-ray flares from Sgr~A* span broad ranges in duration, fluence, and luminosity, but their origin remains unsettled. We test whether standing shocks in low-angular-momentum magneti…
Accretion, ejection and reprocessing in supermassive black holes
A. De Rosa, S. Bianchi, M. Giroletti +35
This is a White Paper in support of the mission concept of the Large Observatory for X-ray Timing (LOFT), proposed as a medium-sized ESA mission. We discuss the potential of LOFT f…
Conditions for the Thermal Instability in the Galactic Centre Mini-spiral region
A. Różańska, B. Czerny, D. Kunneriath +3
We explore the conditions for the thermal instability to operate in the mini-spiral region of the Galactic centre (Sgr A*), where both the hot and cold media are known to coexist.…
