Characterising the Dynamo in a Radiatively Inefficient Accretion Flow
Prasun Dhang, Abhijit Bendre, Prateek Sharma +1
We explore the MRI driven dynamo in a radiatively inefficient accretion flow (RIAF) using the mean field dynamo paradigm. Using singular value decomposition (SVD) we obtain the lea…

3D global simulations of RIAFs: convergence, effects of azimuthal extent and dynamo
Prasun Dhang, Prateek Sharma
We study the long-term evolution of non-radiative geometrically thick () accretion flows using 3D global ideal MHD simulations and a pseudo-Newtonian gravity. We fi…
