Magnetically Modified Spherical Accretion in GRMHD: Reconnection-Driven Convection and Jet Propagation

Sean M. Ressler, Eliot Quataert, Christopher J. White +1

We present 3D general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic(GRMHD) simulations of zero angular momentum accretion around a rapidly rotating black hole, modified by the presence of initi…
