The runaway instability in general relativistic accretion disks
O. Korobkin, E. Abdikamalov, N. Stergioulas +4
When an accretion disk falls prey to the runaway instability, a large portion of its mass is devoured by the black hole within a few dynamical times. Despite decades of effort, it…
Dynamics and Gravitational Wave Signature of Collapsar Formation
C. D. Ott, C. Reisswig, E. Schnetter +7
We perform 3+1 general relativistic simulations of rotating core collapse in the context of the collapsar model for long gamma-ray bursts. We employ a realistic progenitor, rotatio…
Stability of general-relativistic accretion disks
Oleg Korobkin, Ernazar B. Abdikamalov, Erik Schnetter +2
Self-gravitating relativistic disks around black holes can form as transient structures in a number of astrophysical scenarios such as binary neutron star and black hole-neutron st…
