description | In the general accretion disk model theory, the accretion disk surrounding an astronomical object comprises fluid rings
obeying Keplerian motion. However, we should consider relativistic and rotational effects as we close in toward the center
of accretion disk surrounding spinning compact massive objects such as a black hole or a neutron star. In this study, we
explore the geometry of the inner portion of the accretion disk in the context of Mukhopadhyay’s pseudo-Newtonian potential
approximation for the full general relativity theory. We found that the shape of the accretion disk “puffs up” or becomes thicker
and the luminosity of the disk could exceed the Eddington luminosity near the surface of the compact spinning black hole. |
