... (see next paragraph) it is not clear that any additional synchrotron emission will be observable. Arguably, it is best to resolve the synchrotron emission from any star orbiting Sgr A*, such as S2. At apoapse S2 is ∼ 0.23′′ from Sgr A* while at periapse it is only ∼ 0.015′′ away. Thus, to detect a s ...

Bondi Accretion onto a Luminous Object
Bondi Accretion onto a Luminous Object

... As noticed in the case for Hoyle–Lyttleton accretion onto an accretion disk (Fukue, Ioroi 1999), an anisotropic radiation field of accretion disks drastically changes the accretion nature. This is also true for the present Bondi accretion. One typical example is the existence of a cone of avoidance; ...

... the accretion disc should experience a thermal and viscous instability. During this stage, the accreting neutron star would be observed as a transient X-ray source, which appears as short-lived outbursts separated by long-term quiescence. The neutron star was assumed to accrete at a rate of ṀNS = m ...

... ogous but unstudied neutral reactions, which might appear similar to systems with E a = 0, can be governed by short-range potential barriers. For example, both neutral C and O atoms lie in the same ground electronic state: 3 P. Yet, while C is quite reactive, experimental studies show that O is rela ...

... Galaxy survive their residence in the ISM and are incorporated into planet-forming disks around young stars, as must have happened for our solar system (Gail et al. 2009; Nittler 2009). It is desirable to determine the relative contributions to the mass budget from different sources of dust in a gal ...

Most pre-main-sequence stars with discs studied so far in detail are located in the nearby star-forming region of Tau ...

Standard solar model

The standard solar model (SSM) is a mathematical treatment of the Sun as a spherical ball of gas (in varying states of ionisation, with the hydrogen in the deep interior being a completely ionised plasma). This model, technically the spherically symmetric quasi-static model of a star, has stellar structure described by several differential equations derived from basic physical principles. The model is constrained by boundary conditions, namely the luminosity, radius, age and composition of the Sun, which are well determined. The age of the Sun cannot be measured directly; one way to estimate it is from the age of the oldest meteorites, and models of the evolution of the Solar System. The composition in the photosphere of the modern-day Sun, by mass, is 74.9% hydrogen and 23.8% helium. All heavier elements, called metals in astronomy, account for less than 2 percent of the mass. The SSM is used to test the validity of stellar evolution theory. In fact, the only way to determine the two free parameters of the stellar evolution model, the helium abundance and the mixing length parameter (used to model convection in the Sun), are to adjust the SSM to ""fit"" the observed Sun.
