Description
The general relativistic accretion onto a black hole is investigated in which the motion is steady and spherically symmetrical, the gas being at rest at infinity. Two models with different equations of state are compared. Numerical calculations show that the predictions of the models are similar in most aspects. In the ultrarelativistic regime the allowed band of the asymptotic speed of sound and the mass accretion rate can be markedly different.
