Radiative Efficiency Enhancement by Electromagnetic Energy Dissipation in Strongly Magnetized Supercritical Accretion Flows around Kerr Black Holes

Hiroyuki R. Takahashi, Ken Ohsuga, Ryohei Kobayashi +4

We investigate how black hole spin and the amount of magnetic flux affect electromagnetic energy dissipation and radiation transport in supercritical accretion flows. For this purp…
