Growth rate of MWBH due to photon flux in W or fluence in W/m^2 at
Hello,
I find a lot of papers dealing with black hole growth rate due to accretion. But haven't been able to find anything on growth due to photon consumption. A paper 2013 by Victor Debattista, of the University of Central Lancashire in England estimated the growth rate for MW BH at 1 M_sun / 3000 years. This works out to a consumption of E_dot = 1.89E36 W average. but this is total "accretion" rate which includes matter, gas, stars, objects.... mass energy plus photon energy. I didn't see explicit mention of photon mass gain. I'm trying to determine the growth of the MW BH due solely to photon consumption. Alternately, knowing radius and area, I could compute the value if I knew the fluence near the core of the MW, "What is the fluence of photon energy near the center of the MW, in Watts per square meter?" Any assistance / direction appreciated, rt [[Mod. note -- I educated-guess that the photon flux will be many orders of magnitude less than the E=mc^2 equivalent of the infalling matter flux. But specific numbers would be welcome. -- jt]] |
