Examples of 'accretion disk' in a sentence

Meaning of "accretion disk"

An accretion disk is a structure formed by rotating matter, such as gas or dust, that accumulates around a celestial object, typically a star or a black hole. This disk-shaped formation is a result of gravitational forces and is often observed in astronomical research and simulations

  • A structure formed by matter falling into a gravitational source such as a galaxy, black hole, or protostar.
