Extended general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics: Formulation and application to black hole accretion
One of the long standing problems in accretion disk theory is that concerning black holes that accrete at a rate much lower than the Eddington rate. The plasma that constitutes the disk is in a regime where the Coulomb mean free path is much larger than the disk, and the collision time scales are …

General-relativistic magnetohydrodynamics simulations of black hole accretion disks: dynamics and radiative properties
… in this thesis is to understand the black hole accretion process and predict its observational properties. The highly non-linear process involves a turbulent magnetized plasma in a general relativistic regime, thus making it hard to study analytically. We use numerical simulations, specifically …
