Simulations of Magnetized Disks Around Black Holes: Effects of Black Hole Spin, Disk Thickness, and Magnetic Field Geometry
Robert F. Penna, Jonathan C. McKinney, Ramesh Narayan +3
The standard general relativistic model of a razor-thin accretion disk around a black hole, developed by Novikov & Thorne (NT) in 1973, assumes the shear stress vanishes at the rad…

Numerical Studies of Relativistic Jets
Ramesh Narayan, Alexander Tchekhovskoy, Jonathan C. McKinney
The connection between collimation and acceleration of magnetized relativistic jets is discussed. The focus is on recent numerical simulations which shed light on some longstanding…
