We investigated a semi-analytic and numerical model to study the geometrically thin and optically thick accretion disk around Maclaurin spheroid (MS). The main interest is in the inner region of the so called {alpha}-disk, {alpha} being the viscosity parameter. Analytical calculations are done assuming radiation pressure and gas pressure dominated for close to Eddington mass accretion rate and $dot{M}lesssim 0.1dot{M_{Edd}}$ respectively. We found that the change in eccentricity of MS gives a change at high frequency region in the emitted spectra. We found that disk parameters are dependent on eccentricity of MS. Our semi-analytic results show that qualitatively an increase in eccentricity of MS has same behavior as decrease in mass accretion rate. Numerical work has been carried out to see the viscous time evolution of the accretion disk around MS. In numerical model we showed that if the eccentricity of the object is high the matter will diffuse slowly during its viscous evolution. This gives a clue that how spin-up or spin-down can change the time evolution of the accretion disk using a simple Newtonian approach. The change in spectra can be used to determine the eccentricity of MS and thus period of the MS.

Optically thin coronae around neutron stars suffering an X-ray burst can be ejected as a result of rapid increase in stellar luminosity. In general relativity (GR), radiation pressure from the central luminous star counteracts gravitational attractio n more strongly than in Newtonian physics. However, motion near the neutron star is very effectively impeded by the radiation field. We discuss coronal ejection in a general relativistic calculation of the motion of a test particle in a spherically symmetric radiation field. At every radial distance from the star larger than that of the ISCO, and any initial luminosity of the star, there exists a luminosity change which leads to coronal ejection. The luminosity required to eject from the system the inner parts of the optically thin neutron-star corona is very high in the presence of radiation drag and always close to the Eddington luminosity. Outer parts of the corona, at a distance of ~20 $R_G$ or more, will be ejected by a sub-Eddington outburst. Mildly fluctuating luminosity will lead to dissipation in the plasma and may explain the observed X-ray temperatures of coronae in low mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). At large radial distances from the star ($3cdot 10^3 R_G$ or more) the results do not depend on whether or not Poynting-Robertson drag is included in the calculation.
