For an asymptotically flat hairy black hole in the Einstein-Maxwell-scalar (EMS) theory, we study the possibility of shedding off its scalar hair via nonlinear scalar perturbation fully interacting with the background spacetime. We examine…
Outflows are inevitably driven from the disk if the vertical component of the black hole (BH) gravity cannot resist the radiation force. We derive the mass loss rate in the outflows by solving a dynamical equation for the vertical gas…
The galactic black hole binary systems give an observational template showing how the accretion flow changes as a function of increasing mass accretion rate, or L/L_Edd. These data can be synthetised with theoretical models of the accretion…
Recently, the issue of the role of the Eddington limit in accretion discs became a matter of debate. While the classical (spherical) Eddington limit is certainly an over-simplification, it is not really clear how to treat it in a flattened…
The use of physical phenomena in the strong-field regime has become a primarily methodology for probing quantum-corrected gravity. This paper investigates periodic orbits, gravitational waves, and accretion disk radiation for a…
A standard disk around an accreting black hole may become effectively optically-thin and scattering dominated in the inner region, for high accretion rates (as already predicted by the Shakura-Sunyaev model). Radiative emission from that…
The Novikov-Thorne accretion disk model is widely employed in astrophysics, yet computing its blackbody spectrum theoretically requires analytical expressions for the orbital parameters -- specific energy, angular momentum, and angular…
We calculate the quantum radiation power of black holes which are asymptotic to the Einstein-de Sitter universe at spatial and null infinities. We consider two limiting mass accretion scenarios, no accretion and significant accretion. We…
We describe astrophysical processes around a black hole keeping primarily the physics of accretion in mind. In Section 1, we briefly discuss the formation, evolution and detection of black holes. We also discuss the difference of flow…
Qualitative arguments are presented to demonstrate that the energy density of magnetic fields in matter accreting onto a black hole inside the marginally stable orbit is automatically comparable to the rest-mass energy density of the…
Extreme-mass-ratio inspirals (EMRIs) carry valuable information about their surrounding astrophysical environments. Over the course of their long-term evolution, interactions between the secondary object and the accretion disk can produce…
Scalar Tensor Vector Gravity (STVG) is an alternative theory of gravitation that has successfully explained the rotation curves of nearby galaxies, the dynamics of galactic clusters, and cosmological data without dark matter, but has hardly…
Circumbinary accretion occurs throughout the universe, from the formation of stars and planets to the aftermath of major galactic mergers. We present an extensive investigation of circumbinary accretion disks, studying circular binaries…
Neutron stars (NSs) in the astrophysical universe are often surrounded by accretion disks. Accretion of matter onto an NS may increase its mass above the maximum value allowed by its equation of state, inducing its collapse to a black hole…
While supermassive binary black holes inspiral toward merger they may also experience significant accretion of matter from a surrounding disk. We study the dynamics of this system, simultaneously describing the evolving spacetime and…
We investigate the temperature, photon and shadow radii, quasinormal modes (QNMs), time domain profiles, greybody factors, emission rates and topological characteristics of deformed black holes, focusing on the effects of the deformation…
It has long been thought that black hole accretion flows are driven by magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence, and there are now many general relativistic global simulations illustrating the dynamics of this process. However, many challenges…
Gravastar models have recently been proposed as an alternative to black holes, mainly to avoid the pro\-ble\-ma\-tic issues associated with event horizons and singularities. In this work, a regular variety of gravastar models within the…
For the first time ever, we derive equations governing the time-evolution of fully relativistic slim accretion disks in the Kerr metric, and numerically construct their detailed non-stationary models. We discuss applications of these…
Near-extremal black holes are subject to large quantum effects, which modify their low-temperature thermodynamic behavior. Hitherto, these quantum effects were analyzed by separating the geometry into the near-horizon region and its…
