Disc Tearing and Bardeen-Petterson Alignment in GRMHD Simulations of Highly Tilted Thin Accretion Discs
M. Liska, C. Hesp, A. Tchekhovskoy +4
Luminous active galactic nuclei (AGN) and X-Ray binaries (XRBs) often contain geometrically thin, radiatively cooled accretion discs. According to theory, these are -- in many case…

Formation of Precessing Jets by Tilted Black-hole Discs in 3D General Relativistic MHD Simulations
Matthew Liska, Casper Hesp, Alexander Tchekhovskoy +3
Gas falling into a black hole (BH) from large distances is unaware of BH spin direction, and misalignment between the accretion disc and BH spin is expected to be common. However,…
