- 15 This is the most efficient known way of using mass to get energy:
- 16 accretion on to a black hole must power the most luminous phenomena in the universe
- 17 Eddington implies limit on growth rate of mass: since
- 18 Emitted spectrum of an accrediting object
- 19 b Gravitational energy of each accreted electron-proton pair turned directly into heat at shock temperature
- 20 For supermassive black holes we have
- 21 Modelling accreting sources
- 22 examine both problems in the following

- 24 Bondi-Hoyle Lyttleton Accretion
- 25 Accretion disc formation
- 26 Thus in general matter orbits accretor. What happens?
