Hot accretion flows around black holes

F Yuan, R Narayan - Annual Review of Astronomy and …, 2014 - annualreviews.org
Black hole accretion flows can be divided into two broad classes: cold and hot. Whereas
cold accretion flows consist of cool optically thick gas and are found at relatively high mass …

Dynamics of protoplanetary disks

PJ Armitage - Annual Review of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2011 - annualreviews.org
Protoplanetary disks are quasi-steady structures whose evolution and dispersal determine
the environment for planet formation. I review the theory of protoplanetary disk evolution and …

A global three-dimensional radiation magneto-hydrodynamic simulation of super-eddington accretion disks

YF Jiang, JM Stone, SW Davis - The Astrophysical Journal, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
We study super-Eddington accretion flows onto black holes using a global three-
dimensional radiation magneto-hydrodynamical simulation. We solve the time-dependent …

The event horizon general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic code comparison project

O Porth, K Chatterjee, R Narayan… - The Astrophysical …, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
Fully general relativistic models of astrophysical sources are in high demand, not only since
the discovery of gravitational waves emitted from merging stellar mass black holes (Abbott et …

General relativistic hydrodynamic simulation of accretion flow from a stellar tidal disruption

H Shiokawa, JH Krolik, RM Cheng… - The Astrophysical …, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
We study how the matter dispersed when a supermassive black hole tidally disrupts a star
joins an accretion flow. Combining a relativistic hydrodynamic simulation of the stellar …

Local study of accretion disks with a strong vertical magnetic field: Magnetorotational instability and disk outflow

XN Bai, JM Stone - The Astrophysical Journal, 2013 - iopscience.iop.org
We perform three-dimensional, vertically-stratified, local shearing-box ideal MHD
simulations of the magnetorotational instability (MRI) that include a net vertical magnetic flux …

Transport and accretion in planet-forming disks

NJ Turner, S Fromang, C Gammie, H Klahr… - … and Planets VI, 2014 - books.google.com
Planets appear to form in environments shaped by the gas flowing through protostellar disks
to the central young stars. The flows in turn are governed by orbital angular momentum …

Electron thermodynamics in GRMHD simulations of low-luminosity black hole accretion

SM Ressler, A Tchekhovskoy, E Quataert… - Monthly Notices of …, 2015 - academic.oup.com
Simple assumptions made regarding electron thermodynamics often limit the extent to which
general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations can be applied to …

Adaptive analytical ray tracing of black hole photon rings

A Cárdenas-Avendaño, A Lupsasca, H Zhu - Physical Review D, 2023 - APS
Recent interferometric observations by the Event Horizon Telescope have resolved the
horizon-scale emission from sources in the vicinity of nearby supermassive black holes …
