Spherical Accretion in the Schwarzschild Spacetime in the Newtonian Analogous Construct by Shubhrangshu Ghosh, Souvik Ghose, Kalyanbrata Pal, Arunabha Bhadra, Tapas K. Das

“…The primary reason for the deviation of our findings from the classical Bondi solution is likely due to the inconsistency between the Euler-type equation in the presence of velocity-dependent TR13 NAP within the standard Newtonian hydrodynamics framework, and the corresponding GR Euler equation, regardless of the fluid’s energy. Our study suggests that a (modified) hydrodynamical formalism is needed to effectively implement such potentials in transonic accretion studies that align with the spirit of TR13 like NAP, while remaining consistent with the GR hydrodynamics. …”
