On the energy dissipation rate at the inner edge of circumbinary discs
(Oxford University PressMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2016-10-03)
We study, by means of numerical simulations and analysis, the details of the accretion process from a disc on to a binary system. We show that energy is dissipated at the edge of a circumbinary disc and this is associated ...
Zonal flow evolution and overstability in accretion discs
(Oxford University PressMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2017-04-01)
This work presents a linear analytical calculation on the stability and evolution of a compressible, viscous self-gravitating (SG) Keplerian disc with both horizontal thermal diffusion and a constant cooling time-scale ...
