Context: In addition to coherent pulsation, many accreting neutron stars exhibit flaring activity and strong aperiodic variability on time scales comparable to or shorter than their pulsation period. Such a behavior shows that the accretion…
Discovery of pulsations from a number of ULXs proved that accretion onto neutron stars can produce luminosities exceeding the Eddington limit by several orders of magnitude. The conditions necessary to achieve such high luminosities as well…
Most models of anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) account for the observed X-ray spectra and pulsations by means of radiation processes that occur on the surfaces of neutron stars. For any such model, general relativistic deflection of light…
Pulse profiles from X-ray pulsars often exhibit strong energy dependence and both periodic and aperiodic variations with time. The great variety of profiles observed in various sources, and even from individual sources, makes it difficult…
The X-ray emission from accreting black hole (BH) systems displays strong variability. Short reverberation lags are expected between the primary hard X-ray continuum and the reprocessed disc emission. These lags depend on light-travel…
It is expected that extreme mass accretion rate onto strongly magnetised neutron star results in appearance of accretion columns above stellar surface. For a distant observer, rotation of a star results in periodic variations of X-ray flux.…
The outbursts of low mass X-ray binaries are prolonged relative to those of dwarf nova cataclysmic variables as a consequence of X-ray irradiation of the disc. We show that the time-scale of the decay light curve and its luminosity at a…
The luminosity of accreting magnetised neutron stars can largely exceed the Eddington value due to appearance of accretion columns. The height of the columns can be comparable to the neutron star radius. The columns produce the X-rays…
Supercritical accretion onto compact objects is expected to drive optically thick winds, resulting in observed X-ray emission as a function of viewing angle. However, their optical emission, either from the outer accretion disk or companion…
Ultraluminous X-ray sources are extragalactic, off-nucleus, point sources in galaxies with an X-ray luminosity above 3x10^39 erg/s, thought to be powered by accretion onto a compact object. Possible explanations include accretion onto…
X-ray polarimetry is a fine tool to probe the accretion geometry and physical processes operating in the proximity of compact objects, black holes and neutron stars. Recent discoveries made by the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer put our…
We investigate aperiodic X-ray flux variability in accreting highly magnetized neutron stars - X-ray pulsars (XRPs). The X-ray variability is largely determined by mass accretion rate fluctuations at the NS surface, which replicate…
Ultraviolet and X-ray observations show evidence of outflowing gas around many active galactic nuclei. Some of these outflows may be driven off gas infalling towards the central black hole. We perform radiative transfer calculations to…
Ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) are non-nuclear X-ray binary systems that exceed the Eddington luminosity for a 10 Msun black hole. The majority of these sources are thought to be stellar-mass compact objects accreting at super-Eddington…
In addition to coherent pulsation, many accreting neutron stars exhibit flaring activity and strong aperiodic variability on time scales similar to or shorter than their pulsation period. Such a behavior shows that the accretion flow in the…
We perform two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of slowly rotating accretion flows in the region of $ 0.01-7\, \mathrm{pc} $ around a supermassive black holes with $ M_\mathrm{BH} = 10^{8} M_{\odot} $. The accretion flow is irradiated…
Discovery of coherent pulsations from several ultraluminous X-ray pulsars (ULXPs) has provided direct evidence of super-critical accretion flow. However, geometrical structure of such accretion flow onto the central neutron star remains…
Using the outer gap model, we investigate the emission region for the multi-wavelength light curve from energetic pulsars. We assume that gamma-ray and non-thermal X-ray photons are emitted from a particle acceleration region in the outer…
The accretion flow within the magnetospheric radius of bright X-ray pulsars can form an optically thick envelope, concealing the central neutron star from the distant observer. Most photons are emitted at the surface of a neutron star and…
In order to precisely evaluate the impacts by super-Eddington accretors to their environments, it is essential to assure a large enough simulation box and long computational time to avoid any artefacts from numerical settings as much as…
