Why is accretion possible?Why is accretion possible?Ohsuga & S.M. (2006, submitted)
Radiation energy density is high; Erad ≫ EEdd≡LE/4πr 2c .
Then why does the radiation not prevent accretion? Note radiation energy flux is Frad ∝(κρ)-1∇Erad.
→ High ρ and flat Erad profile result in weak Prad force.
Low ρ and strong Prad yield super-Eddington flux.

ConclusionsConclusions
• Near- and super-critical accretion flows seem to occur in many systems (ULXs, NLS1s…?).
• Slim disk model predicts flatter temperature profile. Spectral fitting with p-free model proves the presence of supercritical accretion in ULXs. How about NLS1s?
• 2D RHD simulations of super-critical flow show super- Eddington luminosity, significant radiation anisotropy (beaming), photon trapping, high-speed outflow, etc.
L can be ~10 LE !!
• Issues: line spectra, magnetic fields, jet formation,…
