Efficiency of Super-Eddington Magnetically-Arrested Accretion
Jonathan C. McKinney, Lixin Dai, Mark Avara
The radiative efficiency of super-Eddington accreting black holes (BHs) is explored for magnetically-arrested disks (MADs), where magnetic flux builds-up to saturation near the BH.…

Efficiency of Thin Magnetically-Arrested Disks Around Black Holes
Mark J. Avara, Jonathan C. McKinney, Chris S. Reynolds
The radiative and jet efficiencies of thin magnetized accretion disks around black holes (BHs) are affected by BH spin and the presence of a magnetic field that, when strong, could…
