We present a 3D hydrodynamical simulation of a wind-accreting high-mass microquasar, from 30 binary separations (d) to 256 black hole (BH) gravitational radii, over one-sixth of a full orbit in time, with system parameters inspired by Cyg…

We describe the most general nature of accretion and wind flows around a compact object and emphasize on the properties which are special to black hole accretion. The angular momentum distribution in the most general solution is far from…
