Exact solution for the Green's function describing time-dependent thermal Comptonization
Peter A. Becker
We obtain an exact, closed-form expression for the time-dependent Green's function solution to the Kompaneets equation. The result, which is expressed as the integral of a product…

Inner Boundary Conditions for Advection-Dominated Accretion onto Black Holes
Peter A. Becker, Truong Le
The structure of the inner region of an advection-dominated accretion disk around a nonrotating black hole is explored by applying asymptotic analysis in the region just outside th…
