Study of Advective Energy Transport in the Inflow and Outflow of Super-Eddington Accretion Flows

Photon trapping is believed to be an important mechanism in super-Eddington accretion, which greatly reduces the radiative efficiency as photons are swallowed by the central black hole before they can escape from the accretion flow. This effect is interpreted as the radial advection of energy in one...
