Some First Steps Towards a Radiation GRMHD Code: Radiative Effects on Accretion Rate onto a Kerr Black Hole
Jean-Pierre De Villiers
The role of radiation in general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) accretion simulations is discussed through axisymmetric simulations of the evolution of an initial torus s…

GRMHD Simulations of Disk/Jet Systems: Application to the Inner Engines of Collapsars
Jean-Pierre De Villiers, Jan Staff, Rachid Ouyed
We have carried out 2D and 3D general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic simulations of jets launched self-consistently from accretion disks orbiting Kerr black holes and applied the…

Dynamics of Cosmic Strings in Schwarzschild Spacetime
Jean-Pierre De Villiers
Cosmic strings are topological defects thought to have formed early in the life of the universe. If such objects exist, a study of their interaction with black holes is of interest…
