Neutrino-dominated Relativistic Viscous Accretion Flows around Rotating Black Holes with Shocks by Amit Kumar, Sayan Chakrabarti, Santabrata Das

“…These findings suggest that shocked NDAF solutions are potentially promising to explain the energy output of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). We employ our NDAF model formalism to elucidate ${L}_{\nu \bar{\nu }}^{{\rm{obs}}}$ for five GRBs with known redshifts and estimate their accretion rate ( $\dot{m}$ ) based on the spin ( a _k ) of the central source of the GRBs studied here.…”
