Journal ArticleDOI
Hyperaccreting black holes and gamma-ray bursts
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a numerical model for relativistic disk accretion to study steady state accretion at high rates of gamma-ray burst (GRBs) using a variety of current models of GRBs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hyper-Accreting Black Holes and Gamma-Ray Bursts
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a numerical model for relativistic disk accretion to study steady-state accretion at high rates of gamma-ray burst (GRB) and found that neutrino annihilation in hyper-accreting black hole systems can explain bursts up to 10**52 erg.
Journal ArticleDOI
A boundary layer origin for dwarf nova oscillations
TL;DR: In this article, a non-axisymmetric bulge at the transition between the optically thick disc and the boundary layer region was proposed to explain the observed oscillation periods and the dependence of the oscillation amplitude on photon energy.
