Accretion Disk Winds

Accretion Disk Winds is a physical phenomenon in accretion physics characterized by the outflow of ionized gas or plasma from the surface layers of an accretion disk, driven by radiation pressure, magnetic forces, or thermal effects, thereby removing mass, angular momentum, and energy from the disk system.
