Model Description

If an axion star were captured by a BH with a strongly magnetized accretion disk, the axion star’s orbit will lead it to approach and impact the accretion disk several times at different locations. The electric field induced by the axion star passing through a strong magnetic field will result in the coherent oscillation of surrounding electrons.
