Radiation Hydrodynamic Simulations of Massive Stars in Gas-Rich Environments: Accretion of AGN Stars Suppressed by Thermal Feedback
Yi-Xian Chen et al 2024 ApJ 974 106 New simulations of stars roaming the disk of an active galactic nucleus suggest that stars with masses around 100 times the mass of the Sun accrete at a lower rate…
