High-resolution simulations of supermassive black holes in isolated galaxies have suggested the importance of short (~10 Myr) episodes of rapid accretion caused by interactions between the black hole and massive dense clouds within the…

We construct a steady analytic accretion flow model for a finite rotating gas cloud that accretes material to a central gravitational object. The pressure gradients of the flow are considered to be negligible and so, the flow is ballistic.…

Powerful ionized accretion disk winds are often observed during episodic outbursts in Galactic black hole transients. Among those X-ray absorbers, \fexxvi\ doublet structure (Ly$\alpha_1$+Ly$\alpha_2$ with $\sim 20$eV apart) has a unique…

Simulations predict that galaxies grow primarily through the accretion of gas that has not gone through an accretion shock near the virial radius and that this cold gas flows towards the central galaxy along dense filaments and streams.…

Detonation initiation in a reactive medium can be achieved by an externally created shock wave. Supersonic flow onto a gravitating center, known as Bondi-Hoyle-Lyttleton (BHL) accretion, is a natural shock wave creating process, but, to our…

Bondi type hydrodynamic accretion of the surrounding matter onto Kerr black hole with an arbitrary rotational parameter is considered. The effects of viscosity, thermal conductivity and interaction with radiation field are neglected. The…

We show that there exists a maximal possible accretion rate, beyond which global slim disk solutions cannot be constructed because in the vertical direction the gravitational force would be unable to balance the pressure force to gather the…

Mathematical modeling of fluid flow in a porous medium is usually described by a continuity equation and a chosen constitutive law. The latter, depending on the problem at hand, may be a nonlinear relation between the fluid's pressure…

We study the sedimentation of finite-size inertial particles in a Rayleigh-Taylor-like setup using state-of-the-art direct numerical simulations. The falling particles are observed to produce two distinct regions: a leading mixing layer…

The thickness of a slim disk is determined by the balance between the radiation force and the vertical component of the gravity of the black hole (BH). It was found that vertical gravity increases with the disk height, and it will decrease…

We add extreme driving to the Kob-Andersen kinetically-constrained lattice-gas model in order to mimic the effect of gravity on dense granular systems. For low particle densities, the current that develops in the system agrees at arbitrary…

We present a new model for low-luminosity X-ray sources in globular clusters, with L_x < 10^34 erg/s. The model we propose is that of a single neutron star accreting from cluster gas that has accumulated as a natural product of stellar…

We obtain global solutions of radiatively inefficiently accretion flows around black holes. Whether and where convection develops in a flow are self-consistently determined with the mixing-length theory. The solutions can be divided into…
