Collisionless Accretion of Finite-Angular-Momentum Plasma onto a Spinning Black Hole
John M. Mehlhaff, Alexander Y. Chen, Martin Luepker +1
In low-luminosity active galactic nuclei like M87* and Sgr A*, the accretion disk around the central supermassive black hole is tenuous and collisionless. As a result, the usual id…

Emergence of cyclic flux eruptions in kinetic simulations of magnetized spherical accretion onto a Schwarzschild black hole
Enzo Figueiredo, John Mehlhaff, Adrien Soudais +1
The dynamics of black hole magnetospheres critically depend on the black hole spin and on the structure of the accretion flow. In the limit of a Schwarzschild black hole immersed i…
