The evolution of a binary in a retrograde circular orbit embedded in an accretion disk
P. B. Ivanov, J. C. B. Papaloizou, S. -J. Paardekooper +1
Supermassive black hole binaries may form as a consequence of galaxy mergers. Both prograde and retrograde orbits have been proposed. We study a binary of a small mass ratio, q, in…
No Evidence for Bardeen-Petterson Alignment in GRMHD Simulations and Semi-Analytic Models of Moderately Thin, Prograde, Tilted Accretion Disks
Viacheslav V. Zhuravlev, Pavel B. Ivanov, P. Chris Fragile +1
In this paper we introduce the first results that use data extracted directly from numerical simulations as inputs to the analytic twisted disk model of Zhuravlev & Ivanov. In both…
Conservative GRMHD Simulations of Moderately Thin, Tilted Accretion Disks
Danilo Morales Teixeira, P. Chris Fragile, Viacheslav V. Zhuravlev +1
This paper presents our latest numerical simulations of accretion disks that are misaligned with respect to the rotation axis of a Kerr black hole. In this work we use a new, fully…
