We perform two-dimensional radiation hydrodynamical simulations of accretion flows onto a black hole (BH) with a mass of $10^3\leq M_{\rm BH}/M_{\odot} \lesssim 10^6$ in order to study rapid growth of BHs in the early Universe. For…

Isolated stellar-mass BH accrete gas, often at supersonic speeds, and can form outflows that can influence the accreted gas. The latter process, known as mechanical feedback, can significantly affect the accretion rate. We use…

Hyperaccretion occurs when the gas inflow rate onto a black hole (BH) is so high that the radiative feedback cannot reverse the accretion flow. This extreme process is a promising mechanism for the rapid growth of seed BHs in the early…
