We perform 2D and 3D numerical simulations of an accretion disc in a close binary system using the Simplified Flux vector Splitting (SFS) finite volume method. In our calculations, gas is assumed to be the ideal one, and we calculate the…

We present synthetic Doppler maps of gaseous flows in binary IP Peg based on the results of 3D gasdynamical simulations. Using of gasdynamical calculations alongside with the Doppler tomography technique permits us to identify the main…

Results of calculations of the flow structure in binary systems with mass exchange driven by stellar wind are presented. 2D simulations have been carried out using the Roe-Oscher scheme. The fine grid we used allowed us to detect the…

Context. Gamma-ray binaries are systems that radiate the dominant part of their non-thermal emission in the gamma-ray band. In a wind-driven scenario, these binaries are thought to consist of a pulsar orbiting a massive star, accelerating…

We study properties of an accretion ring in a steady mass flow from a companion star to a compact object in an X-ray binary. The accretion ring is a place where matter inflowing from a companion star sojourns for a while to bifurcate to…
