Journal ArticleDOI
Thermal tides in fluid extrasolar planets
Phil Arras,Aristotle Socrates +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the ability of this "thermal tide" to produce a quadrupole moment which can couple to the stellar gravitational tidal force, and found that in the range of forcing periods of 1-30 days, the induced quadruphole moments can be far larger than the analytic result due to response of internal gravity waves which propagate in the radiative envelope.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultraluminous X-Ray Sources Powered by Radiatively Efficient Two-Phase Super-Eddington Accretion onto Stellar-Mass Black Holes
TL;DR: In this article, a model of ULXs powered by geometrically thin accretion onto stellar-mass black holes is presented, which qualitatively reproduces the main features of most highly luminous ULX spectra.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Eddington Limit in Cosmic Rays: An Explanation for the Observed Lack of Low-Mass Radio-Loud Quasars and the M_{BH}-M_{Bulge} Relation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a feedback mechanism for supermassive black holes and their host bulges that operates during epochs of radio-loud quasar activity, and show that enough 1-100 GeV cosmic rays escape the radio core into the host galaxy to break the Eddington limit in cosmic rays.

Thermal Tides in Short Period Exoplanets
Phil Arras,Aristotle Socrates +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the response of radiative atmospheres is computed in a hydrostatic model which treats the insolation as a time-dependent heat source, and solves for thermal radiation using flux-limited diffusion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photon feedback: screening and the eddington limit
TL;DR: In this article, a model for the radiative transfer of UV and optical light in dust-rich environments is considered, and it is shown that radiation pressure on dust does not greatly affect the large-scale gas dynamics of star-forming galaxies.
