HARM: a numerical scheme for general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics

CF Gammie, JC McKinney, G Tóth - The Astrophysical Journal, 2003 - iopscience.iop.org
We describe a conservative, shock-capturing scheme for evolving the equations of general
relativistic magnetohydrodynamics. The fluxes are calculated using the Harten, Lax, & van …

Ion-supported tori and the origin of radio jets

MJ Rees, MC Begelman, RD Blandford, ES Phinney - Nature, 1982 - nature.com
While apparently supplying tremendous power to their extended radio-emitting regions, the
nuclei of most radio galaxies emit little detectable radiation. It is proposed that at the centre …
