Photon Scattering by Relativistic Flows in Schwarzschild Spacetimes. I. The Generation of Power-Law Spectra
H. Papathanassiou, D. Psaltis
We study the spectra generated as a result of bulk Comptonization by relativistic electrons in radial flows onto compact objects. We solve numerically the general-relativistic radi…

Hydrodynamic Effects on the QPO Frequencies of Accreting Compact Objects
Dimitrios Psaltis
The variability properties of accreting compact objects predicted by dynamical models are characterized by a number of distinct frequencies that are specific to each model. Because…

On the Origin of Quasi-Periodic Oscillations and Broad-band Noise in Accreting Neutron Stars and Black Holes
Dimitrios Psaltis, Colin Norman
Accreting neutron stars and black holes share a number of rapid variability characteristics, such as quasi-periodic oscillations and broad-band noise. The frequencies of these feat…
