Accretion and Ejection--The GR/MHD View

J. H. Krolik, J. F. Hawley

The inward flow of matter through accretion disks is driven by MHD turbulence. Global general relativistic MHD simulations shed quantitative light on this process, revealing a numb…

Light Curves from an MHD Simulation of a Black Hole Accretion Disk

Jeremy D. Schnittman, Julian H. Krolik, John F. Hawley

We use a relativistic ray-tracing code to calculate the light curves observed from a global general relativistic magneto-hydrodynamic simulation of an accretion flow onto a Schwarz…

Estimating the Radiative Efficiency of Magnetized Accretion Disks Around Black Holes

Kris Beckwith, John F. Hawley, Julian H. Krolik

Simulations of black hole accretion have shown that magnetic stresses are present near and inside the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO). This finding suggests that such flows…

Type II Quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey: V. Imaging host galaxies with the Hubble Space Telescope

Nadia L. Zakamska, Michael A. Strauss, Julian H. Krolik +7

Type II quasars are luminous Active Galactic Nuclei whose centers are obscured by large amounts of gas and dust. In this paper we present 3-band HST images of nine type II quasars…

Hosts of Type II Quasars: an HST Study

Nadia L. Zakamska, Michael A. Strauss, Julian H. Krolik +6

Type II quasars are luminous Active Galactic Nuclei whose centers are obscured by large amounts of gas and dust. In this contribution we present 3-band HST images of nine type II q…

Magnetic pressure support and accretion disk spectra

O. M. Blaes, S. W. Davis, S. Hirose +2

Stellar atmosphere models of ionized accretion disks have generally neglected the contribution of magnetic fields to the vertical hydrostatic support, although magnetic fields are…
