The Effect of Radiation Pressure on Dust and Gas Dynamics in Accretion Disks, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Rahvar, Sohrab (Supervisor)
Abstract
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of radiation pressure on accretion disks. The radiation density causes the separation of electrons from ions which leads to the creation of an internal electric dipole. In this study Radiation density is calculated using the Eddington limit. Afterwards radiation pressure is calculated with the use of collisions between photons and electrons in the plasma. Collisions are assumed to happen only between photons and electrons, due to the larger cross section of electrons compared to protons. The mentioned assumption causes the creation of an electric dipole and with it an internal electric field. The separation of the charges is assumed to...
