argumentA line of reasoning from premises to a conclusion. Like a claim, it belongs to no one who makes it.constitution →
Relativistic solutions and simulations
forThis argument, if it holds, bears in favour of the claim.constitution →Micro black holes captured inside neutron stars or white dwarfs accrete at approximately the Bondi rate
The argument
Analytic generalizations of the Bondi solution to the stiff equations of state of degenerate stellar matter yield steady transonic inflow at Bondi-type rates, and general-relativistic simulations of black holes inside neutron stars recover Bondi-type rates proportional to the horizon area. Because independent analytic and numerical treatments converge on the same rate, the claim follows.
Does it work?
Not yet evaluated.
Premises
- UnassessedNo current assessment. Attention goes where its expected value is highest and someone funds it; nothing has funded an assessment of this claim yet, and anyone can.constitution →General-relativistic simulations of black holes accreting inside neutron stars find Bondi-type accretion rates proportional to the horizon area
