Spacetime constraints on accreting black holes
David Garofalo
We study the spin dependence of accretion onto rotating Kerr black holes using analytic techniques. In its linear regime, angular momentum transport in MHD turbulent accretion flow…

Signatures of black hole spin in galaxy evolution
David Garofalo
We explore the connection between black hole spin and AGN power by addressing the consequences underlying the assumption in the recent literature that the gap region between accret…

The spin dependence of the Blandford-Znajek effect
David Garofalo
The interaction of large scale magnetic fields with the event horizon of rotating black holes (the Blandford-Znajek [1977] mechanism) forms the basis for some models of the most re…
