Precession of Magnetically Driven Warped Disks and Low-Frequency QPOs in Low-Mass X-Ray Binaries
Akiko Shirakawa, Dong Lai
An accretion disk around a rotating magnetized star is subjected to magnetic torques which induce disk warping and precession. These torques arise from interactions between the ste…
