Hyperaccreting Black Holes and Gamma‐Ray Bursts

Hyperaccreting Black Holes and Gamma‐Ray Bursts

A variety of current models of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) suggest a common engine: a black hole of several solar masses accreting matter from a disk at a rate of 0.01 to 10 M☉ s-1. Using a numerical model for relativistic disk accretion, we have studied steady state accretion at these …
