Constraining the Physics of the X-ray Irradiated Accretion Discs in Low-mass X-ray Binaries with Observations
DownloadFall 2018
Recurring outbursts associated with matter flowing onto compact stellar remnants (black holes and neutron stars) in low-mass X-ray binary systems provide constraints on the poorly understood accretion process. Multi-wavelength light-curves and spectra of these bright outbursts provide powerful...

We examine the long-term evolution of accretion tori around the remnants of compact object mergers and the explosions of highly magnetized massive stars to better understand their roles in the creation of optical transients and the synthesis of r-process elements. We begin by modifying the...
