(abridged) Accretion from disks onto young stars is thought to follow magnetic field lines from the inner disk edge to the stellar surface. The accretion flow thus depends on the geometry of the magnetic field. This paper extends previous…
In this paper we have solved the hydrodynamic equations governing the spherically symmetric isothermal accretion (wind) onto (away from) compact objects using various pseudo-Schwarzschild potentials.These solutions are essentially one…
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…
The hydrodynamics of low-angular-momentum, multi-transonic, axisymmetric, inviscid accretion flow onto a rotating black hole has been systematically investigated using three distinct disc geometries and two thermodynamic equations of state,…
Accretion flows are fundamentally turbulent systems, yet are classically modelled with viscous theories only valid on length scales significantly greater than the typical size of turbulent eddies in the flow. We demonstrate that, while this…
We study the two-dimensional structure of thin transonic accretion discs in the vicinity of a non-spinning black hole within the framework of hydrodynamical version of the Grad-Shafranov equation. Our analysis focuses on the region inside…
We derive the equations of motion for binary systems of compact bodies in the post-Newtonian (PN) approximation to general relativity. Results are given through 2PN order (order (v/c)^4 beyond Newtonian theory), and for gravitational…
We study the general relativistic non-linear dynamics of self-gravitating irrotational dust in a cosmological setting, adopting the comoving and synchronous gauge, where all the equations can be written in terms of the metric tensor of…
In this paper, we initiate a new study of steady funnel-flow accretion onto strongly magnetized neutron stars, including a full treatment of shock generation. As a first step, we adopt a simplified model considering the flow within…
Using post-Newtonian equations of motion for fluid bodies that include radiation-reaction terms at 2.5 and 3.5 post-Newtonian (PN) order (O[(v/c)^5] and O[(v/c)^7] beyond Newtonian order), we derive the equations of motion for binary…
External matter distributions can substantially reshape the strong field environment of compact objects, yet this effect is usually neglected in idealized isolated models. In this work, we investigate geometrically thin, optically thick…
We report on the second phase of our study of slightly rotating accretion flows onto black holes. We consider magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) accretion flows with a spherically symmetric density distribution at the outer boundary, but with…
We present the two-dimensional inflow-outflow solutions of radiation hydrodynamic (RHD) equations of supercritical accretion flows. Compared with prior studies, we include all components of the viscous stress tensor. We assume steady state…
We obtain relativistic solutions of spherically symmetric accretion by a dynamical analysis of a generalised Hamiltonian for higher-dimensional Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m (RN) Black Hole (BH). We consider two different fluids namely, an…
The four characteristic oscillation frequencies of accretion flows are, in addition to the Keplerian orbital frequency, often discussed in the context of the time variability of the black hole and neutron star (NS) low-mass X-ray binaries…
We review the current understanding of accretion flows around compact objects with a special emphasis on advective disks. We discuss the influence of the centrifugal pressure supported high density region around compact objects (where…
For inviscid, rotational accretion flows, both isothermal and polytropic, a simple dynamical systems analysis of the critical points has given a very accurate mathematical scheme to understand the nature of these points, for {\em any}…
Here we furnish a pseudo-Newtonion potential for accretion disk modeling around rotating central objects having hard sueface. That means, the potential may be useful to describe the accretion disk around rotating neutron stars and strange…

We present time-dependent models of the accretion disks created during compact object mergers, focusing on the energy available from accretion at late times and the composition of the disk and its outflows. We calculate the dynamics near…
