Popis: | We explore the gas dynamics near the dust sublimation radius of active galactic nucleus (AGN). For the purpose, we perform axisymmetric radiation hydrodynamic simulations of a dusty gas disk of radius $\approx 1\,\mathrm{pc}$ around a supermassive black hole of mass $10^{7}\,\mathrm{M_{\odot}}$ taking into account (1) anisotropic radiation of accretion disk, (2) X-ray heating by corona, (3) radiative transfer of infrared (IR) photons reemitted by dust, (4) frequency dependency of direct and IR radiations, and (5) separate temperatures for gas and dust. As a result, we find that for Eddington ratio $\approx 0.77$, a nearly neutral, dense ($\approx 10^{6\operatorname{-}8}\;\mathrm{cm^{-3}}$), geometrically-thin ($h/r 40 pages, 33 figures, 7 tables; accepted for publication in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society |
