Slim disks around Kerr black holes revisited

arXiv:0906.0355 · doi:10.1088/0067-0049/183/2/171

Abstract

We investigate stationary slim accretion disks around Kerr black holes. We construct a new numerical method based on the relaxation technique. We systematically cover the whole parameter space relevant to stellar mass X-ray binaries. We also notice some non-monotonic features in the disk structure, overlooked in previous studies.
