The Lightweaver Framework for Nonlocal Thermal Equilibrium Radiative Transfer in Python

Christopher M. J. OsborneORCID; Ivan Milić

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>Tools for computing detailed optically thick spectral line profiles out of local thermodynamic equilibrium have always been focused on speed, due to the large computational effort involved. With the <jats:italic>Lightweaver</jats:italic> framework, we have produced a more flexible, modular toolkit for building custom tools in a high-level language, Python, without sacrificing speed against the current state of the art. The goal of providing a more flexible method for constructing these complex simulations is to decrease the barrier to entry and allow more rapid exploration of the field. In this paper we present an overview of the theory of optically thick nonlocal thermodynamic equilibrium radiative transfer, the numerical methods implemented in <jats:italic>Lightweaver</jats:italic> including the problems of time-dependent populations and charge-conservation, as well as an overview of the components most users will interact with, to demonstrate their flexibility.</jats:p>

A Self-similar Solution of Hot Accretion Flow: The Role of the Kinematic Viscosity Coefficient

Fatemeh Zahra ZeraatgariORCID; Liquan MeiORCID; Amin MosallanezhadORCID

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title> <jats:p>We investigate the dependency of the inflow-wind structure of a hot accretion flow on the kinematic viscosity coefficient. In this regard, we propose a model for the kinematic viscosity coefficient to mimic the behavior of the magnetorotational instability that would be maximal at the rotation axis. Then, we compare our model with two other prescriptions from numerical simulations of the accretion flow. We solve two-dimensional hydrodynamic equations of hot accretion flows in the presence of thermal conduction. The self-similar approach is also adopted in the radial direction. We calculate the properties of the inflow and the wind such as velocity, density, and angular momentum for three models of the kinematic viscosity prescription. On inspection, we find that in our suggested model the wind is less efficient at extracting the angular momentum outward where the self-similar solutions are applied than it is in two other models. The solutions obtained in this paper might be applicable to hydrodynamical numerical simulations of hot accretion flows.</jats:p>
