How to use disk in a sentence?

  1. Faii Ong:

    That's exactly what we're doing with the glove, except that we are hiking it up. We're spinning the disk faster than a jet turbine, at about 20,000 rpm and we are coupling that directly to the hand.

  2. Erin Kara:

    There has been much debate in the community for many years as to what drives the evolution of the outburst in stellar-mass black holes. Is it driven by the disk moving inwards or by the corona changing? in this work, we show clear evidence that it is the corona that drives the evolution.

  3. Erin Kara:

    Tidal disruption events offer us this rare view at the most common kind of supermassive black hole in the universe— these so-called dormant supermassive black holes, tidal disruption events, where the stellar debris causes the formation of a temporary accretion disk, offers us a way to probe this population of supermassive black holes.

  4. Rajdeep Dasgupta:

    This study suggests that a rocky, Earth-like planet gets more chances to acquire life-essential elements if it forms and grows from giant impacts with planets that have sampled different building blocks, perhaps from different parts of a protoplanetary disk, this removes some boundary conditions. It shows that life-essential volatiles can arrive at the surface layers of a planet, even if they were produced on planetary bodies that underwent core formation under very different conditions.

  5. Dheeraj Pasham:

    The fact that we can track this region of bright X-ray emission as it circles the black hole lets us track just how quickly material in the disk is spinning, that gives us information about the spin rate of the supermassive black hole itself.
