The luminosity dependence of thermally-driven disc winds in low-mass X-ray binaries
Nick Higginbottom, Christian Knigge, Knox S. Long +2
We have carried out radiation-hydrodynamic simulations of thermally-driven accretion disc winds in low-mass X-ray binaries. Our main goal is to study the luminosity dependence of t…

Thermal Disk Winds in X-ray Binaries: Realistic Heating and Cooling Rates Give Rise to Slow, but Massive Outflows
Nick Higginbottom, Daniel Proga, Christian Knigge +1
A number of X-ray binaries exhibit clear evidence for the presence of disk winds in the high/soft state. A promising driving mechanism for these outflows is mass loss driven by the…
