Maximum effective temperature of a zero-torque disk ($T_{\max }\simeq 0.488T_{\mathrm{in}}$)

For the effective-temperature profile of a zero-torque disk, differentiation of $y^{-3}(1-y^{-1/2})$ with $y=r/r_{\mathrm{in}}$ gives $y_{\max }=49/36$. Thus $T_{\max }=(6/7{)}^{3/2}{7}^{-1/4}{T}_{\mathrm{in}}\simeq 0.488T_{\mathrm{in}}$. This distinguishes a genuine maximum effective temperature from the normalization used in a power-law approximation.
