This study deals with astrophysical accretion onto the charged black hole solution, which is sourced by the dilation, spin, and shear charge of matter in metric affine gravity. The metric affine gravity defines the link between torsion and…
This paper deals with astrophysical accretion onto the magnetically charged Euler-Heisenberg black holes with scalar hair. We examine the accretion process of a variety of perfect fluids, including polytropic and isothermal fluids of the…
We study the recent outburst of the black hole candidate EXO 1846-031 which went into an outburst in 2019 after almost 34 years in quiescence. We use archival data from Swift/XRT, MAXI/GSC, NICER/XTI and NuSTAR/FPM satellites/instruments to…
The accretion of test fluids flowing onto a black hole is investigated. Particularly, by adopting a dynamical Hamiltonian approach, we are capable to find the critical points for various cases of black hole in conformal gravity. In these…
In the last decade multi-wavelength observations have demonstrated the importance of jets in the energy output of accreting black hole binaries. The observed correlations between the presence of a jet and the state of the accretion flow…
Accretion is the dominant contribution to the cosmic massive black hole density in the Universe today. Yet, modelling it in cosmological simulations is challenging due to the dynamic range involved, as well as the theoretical uncertainties…
We study the time evolution of a rotating, axisymmetric, viscous accretion flow around black holes using a grid based finite difference method. We use the Shakura-Sunyaev viscosity prescription. However, we compare with the results obtained…

Two component X-ray spectra (soft multicolor black body plus harder power law) are frequently observed from accreting black holes. These components are presumably associated with the different parts of the accretion flow (optically thick…

We present X-ray spectral analysis of Seyfert 1.5 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) NGC~4151 using \textit{NuSTAR} observation during 2012. This is the first attempt to fit an AGN data using the physical Two Component Advective flow (TCAF)…
In this chapter, I present a summary of observational tests of the basic picture of disk accretion. An emphasis is placed on tests relevant to black holes, but many of the fundamental results are drawn from studies of other classes of…
Using two-dimensional simulations of non-radiative viscous rotating black hole accretion flows, we show that the flows with alpha~0.1-0.3 self-organize to form stationary unipolar or bipolar outflows accompanied by global meridional…
This review covers the main aspects of black hole accretion disk theory. We begin with the view that one of the main goals of the theory is to better understand the nature of black holes themselves. In this light we discuss how accretion…
A large-scale closed magnetic field can transfer angular momentum and energy between a black hole (BH) and its surrounding accretion flow. We investigate the effects of this magnetic coupling (MC) process on the dynamics of a hot accretion…
