If astrophysical black hole candidates are the Kerr black holes predicted by General Relativity, the value of their spin parameter must be subject to the theoretical bound $|a_*| \le 1$. In this work, we consider the possibility that these…
There is robust observational evidence supporting the existence of $5 - 20$ $M_\odot$ compact bodies in X-ray binary systems and of $10^5 - 10^9$ $M_\odot$ bodies at the center of many galaxies. All these objects are commonly interpreted as…
In this paper we continue our study on the accretion process onto super-spinning Kerr objects with no event horizon (super-spinars). We discuss the counterpart of the Bondi accretion onto black holes. We first report the results of our…
We investigate thick accretion structures around Kerr black holes in a swirling background. This stationary and axisymmetric spacetime is composed of a rotating black hole, which is immersed in a rotating background. The swirling background…
We have studied the properties of thin accretion disks around swirling-Kerr black holes, which own an extra swirling parameter describing the rotation of the immersed universe. Our results show that the swirling parameter leaves distinct…
Nowadays we believe that a typical galaxy contains about $10^7$ stellar-mass black holes and a single super-massive black hole at its center. According to general relativity, these objects are characterized solely by their mass $M$ and by…
The $5 - 20 M_\odot$ dark objects in X-ray binary systems and the $10^5 - 10^9 M_\odot$ dark objects in galactic nuclei are currently thought to be the Kerr black holes predicted by General Relativity. However, direct observational evidence…
We posit that accreting compact objects, including stellar mass black holes and neutron stars as well as supermassive black holes, may undergo extended periods of accretion during which the angular momentum of the disk at large scales is…
This paper reports results from numerical simulations of the gravitational radiation emitted from non--rotating compact objects(both neutron stars and Schwarzschild black holes) as a result of the accretion of matter. A hybrid procedure is…
Numerical simulations have shown the occurence of a scenario termed ''super-competitive accretion'', a term that describes a situation where only the central few objects grow supermassive while a larger number of stars compete for the…
The phenomenon by which matter accumulates in the vicinity of a huge celestial object is known as accretion. The gravitational energy is excreted as a consequence of infalling matter onto compact objects. The accretion procedure around…
We present the results of our studies on accretion disks in the proximity of astrophysical black holes. These disks can be of varying degrees of opacity, geometrical shapes, sizes, and volumes. The central compact object is a Schwarzschild…
During the formation of the large scale structure of the Universe, matter accretes onto high density peaks. Accreting collisionless dark matter (DM) forms caustics around them, while accreting collisional baryonic matter (BM) forms…
We consider the non-commutative(NC) Kerr black hole where the mass of the central object is smeared over a region of linear size $\sqrt{b}$, $b$ is the strength of the NC character of spacetime. For the spacetime under consideration, we…
Rotating regular black hole, as a promising extension beyond general relativity, offer a phenomenological model that resolves spacetime singularities. In this study, we investigate the observational features of thin accretion disk around a…
Fitting the thermal continuum emission of accreting black holes observed across X-ray bands represents one of the principle means of constraining the properties (mass and spin) of astrophysical black holes. Recent ''continuum fitting''…
Understanding how accretion proceeds in proto-planetary discs and more generally their dynamics is a crucial issue for explaining the conditions in which planets form. The role that accretion of gas from the surrounding molecular cloud onto…
We present the results of three-dimensional general relativistic hydrodynamic simulations of adiabatic and spherically symmetric accretion in Kerr space-time. We consider compact objects with spin parameter $|a_*| \le 1$ (black holes) and…
The accretion of matter onto celestial bodies like black holes and neutron stars is a natural phenomenon that releases up to $40\%$ of the matter's rest-mass energy, which is considered a source of radiation. In active galactic nuclei and…
We examine the possibility that hyper-accretion onto newly born, black holes occurs in highly intermittent, non-asymmetric fashion favorable to gravitational wave emission in a neutrino cooled disk. This picture of near-hole accretion is…
