SUMMARY:Physics Colloquium - Chris Fragile
DESCRIPTION:What Are We Learning About Super-Eddington Accretion Disks From Simulations?\nProfessor Chris Fragile\nDepartment of Physics & Astronomy\, College of Charleston \nAccretion of gas onto black holes is one of the most important processes shaping our Universe. Understanding extremely high rates of accretion (dubbed ‘super-Eddington’) is vital to explaining the challenging observation that supermassive black holes (SMBHs) are fully formed at redshifts >7. It is also important to understanding astrophysical objects such as tidal disruption events (TDEs) and ultra-luminous X-ray sources (ULXs). \nIn this talk\, I will present the results of some recent super-Eddington disk simulations and discuss some of the interesting things we are learning.
