Variable opacity and accretion-column regimes of magnetized neutron stars
Radiation-supported accretion columns of magnetized neutron stars can operate in several distinct regimes. As the accretion rate increases, magnetospheric accretion may proceed through hot-spot emission, efficiently cooling radiative shocks, and advective sinking columns. The structure of the accretion flow is determin...
