Summary of luminosity contributions for the accretion disk around a 106M⊙ SMBH. The AGN component or its upper limit is shown in blue, and the thermal emission from the optically thick self-gravitating region is shown in orange. The Eddington luminosity is plotted for reference (black dashed). Across all models, increasing γ systematically suppresses LAGN, while Ldisk remains largely unchanged and often dominates even at γ for lower accretion rates.
