General Relativistic MHD Jets
J. H. Krolik, J. Hawley
Magnetic fields connecting the immediate environs of rotating black holes to large distances appear to be the most promising mechanism for launching relativistic jets, an idea firs…

Viscous and Resistive Effects on the MRI with a Net Toroidal Field
Jacob B. Simon, John F. Hawley
Resistivity and viscosity have a significant role in establishing the energy levels in turbulence driven by the magnetorotational instability (MRI) in local astrophysical disk mode…

Transport of Large Scale Poloidal Flux in Black Hole Accretion
Kris Beckwith, John F. Hawley, Julian H. Krolik
We report on a global, three-dimensional GRMHD simulation of an accretion torus embedded in a large scale vertical magnetic field orbiting a Schwarzschild black hole. This simulati…
