description

We examine numerically shock waves formed in 2D rotating accretion flows around a stellar‐mass and a supermassive black holes, while taking account of the cooling and heating of the gas and the radiation transport. As the results, we obtain general properties of the shock oscillations and the luminosity behaviors as QPOs independent of the black hole masses.
