 Isothermal transonic accretion in the Paczyński-Wiita potential

For $\beta =16c_s^2/c^2$, the exterior sonic point of the barotropic spherical accretion equation lies outside $r_G=2GM/c^2$. Its mass density is ${\rho }_c={\rho }_{\infty }\exp [4/(1+\sqrt{1+\beta })-1/2]$. The selected smooth transonic accretion rate is $4\pi r_c^2{\rho }_c{c}_s$. Subsonic formal solutions are not assigned this rate without transonic selection.
