### Angular Momentum Transport in Early-formed Objects by Cosmic Background Radiation: Radiation-hydrodynamical Approach

#### Tsuribe, Tohru,   Umemura, Masayuki

The effects of radiation force by the cosmic background radiation (CBR) on early-formed objects shortly after the cosmological recombination are explored. In particular, we are interested in the angular momentum transport in massive disks that originate from tidally spun-up density fluctuations. The radiation force by the CBR is calculated by...

### Self-Similar Viscous Collapse of a Self-Gravitating, Polytropic Gas Disk

#### Mineshige, Shin,   Nakayama, Kunji,   Umemura, Masayuki

Self-similar solutions for the time evolution of polytropic, self- gravitating viscous disks is found on the condition that the kinematic viscosity is nu åisebox-0.5ex~ r(\l\ and the gas pressure is P \i̊sebox-0.5ex~ rho (Gamma ) , where l and Gamma are free parameters, r is radius, and rho is density....

### Very Strong Microlensing of Distant Luminous Stars by Relic Massive Black Holes

#### Turner, Edwin L.,   Umemura, Masayuki

We examine the possibility that a population of relic massive black holes, perhaps constituting an important component of the dark matter, might be indirectly detected via their occasional very strong gravitational lensing of individual luminous stars in distant external galaxies. For plausible, and in some respects conservative, values of the...

### Self-similar Collapse of a Self-gravitating Viscous Disk

#### Mineshige, Shin,   Umemura, Masayuki

A self-similar solution for time evolution of isothermal, self- gravitating viscous disks is found under the condition that \ensuremathα' \ensuremath≡ \ensuremathα(H/r) is constant in space (where \ensuremathα is the viscosity parameter and H/r is the ratio of a half-thickness to the radius of the disk). This solution describes a homologous...
