Jets from Time-Dependent Accretion Flows onto a Black Hole

We investigate time-dependent inviscid hydrodynamical accretion flows onto a black hole using numerical simulations. We consider the accretion that consists of hot tenuous gas with low specific angular momentum and cold dense gas with high specific angular momentum. The former accretes continuously and the latter highly intermittently as blobs. The high specific angular momentum gas blobs bounce at the centrifugal barrier and create shock waves. The low specific angular momentum gas is heated at the shock fronts and escapes along the rotation axis. The outgoing gas evolves into pressure-driven jets. Jet acceleration lasts until the shock waves fade out. The total amount of the mass ejection is about 1-11 % of the mass of the blobs. The jet mass increases when the gas blobs are more massive or have larger specific angular momentum. We get narrower well-collimated jets when the hot continuous flow has a lower temperature. In the numerical simulations we used a finite difference code based on the total variation diminishing scheme. It is extended to include the blackbody radiation and to apply the multi time step scheme for time marching.
