Accretion-induced variability links young stellar objects, white dwarfs, and black holes

Accretion-induced variability links young stellar objects, white dwarfs, and black holes

The central engines of disc-accreting stellar-mass black holes appear to be scaled down versions of the supermassive black holes that power active galactic nuclei. However, if the physics of accretion is universal, it should also be possible to extend this scaling to other types of accreting systems, irrespective of accretor …
