Slim disks around Kerr black holes revisited
Aleksander Sadowski
TL;DR
This paper presents a new numerical approach to study slim accretion disks around Kerr black holes, revealing previously overlooked non-monotonic features in disk structure across relevant parameter spaces.
Contribution
Introduces a relaxation-based numerical method for modeling slim disks around Kerr black holes and uncovers new structural features.
Findings
Discovered non-monotonic features in disk structure
Systematic coverage of parameter space for stellar mass X-ray binaries
Validated the effectiveness of the new numerical method
Abstract
We investigate stationary slim accretion disks around Kerr black holes. We construct a new numerical method based on the relaxation technique. We systematically cover the whole parameter space relevant to stellar mass X-ray binaries. We also notice some non-monotonic features in the disk structure, overlooked in previous studies.
