A new one-dimensional, dynamical model is proposed for geometrically thin, self-gravitating viscous accretion discs. The vertically integrated equations are simplified using the slow accretion limit and the monopole approximation with a…

We seek for self-similar solutions describing the time-dependent evolution of self-gravity systems with either spherical symmetry or axisymmetric disk geometry. By assuming self-similar variable $x\equiv r/at$ where $a$ is isothermal sound…

We show that the standard model for geometrically thin accretion disks (alpha-disks) leads to inconsistencies if selfgravity plays a role. This problem arises from the parametrization of viscosity in terms of local sound velocity and…

A self-similar solution for time evolution of quasi-spherical, self-gravitating accretion flows is obtained under the assumption that the generated heat by viscosity is retained in the flow. The solutions are parameterized by the ratio of…

The manner in which warps in accretion disks evolve depends on the magnitude of the viscosity. For small viscosity $(\alpha < H/R)$ the warp evolves in a wave-like manner; for large viscosity $H/R<\alpha \ll 1$ it evolves diffusively. Here…

A new self-similar solution describing the dynamical condensation of a radiative gas is investigated under a plane-parallel geometry. The dynamical condensation is caused by thermal instability. The solution is applicable to generic flow…
