Effective-temperature profile of a zero-torque disk

ID: effective-temperature-profile-of-a-zero-torque-disk

A Keplerian accretion disk with a zero-torque inner boundary condition and local blackbody cooling has . The Stefan–Boltzmann law uses the flux through one face; the standard thin-disk dissipation flux includes both faces. The scale is a normalization, not the actual temperature at the stress-free inner edge.
