Perfect Conducting (PC) and Perfect Insulating (PI) boundary conditions for magnetic induction in MHD problems in cylindrical coordinates

I understand the computational implementation of the PC and PI bcs in cartesian case. In terms of the magnetic field components for PI, we have $B_x = B_y = B_z = 0$, and for PC, we have $B_x = \...

Newtonian/Relativistic Solutions of Fluid Disks in orbit around a massive body

I have been trying to make an RMHD (Relativistic Magneto-Hydro Dynamics) Set-up of a Disk around a Massive Rotational Body. The initial paper I have been studing a paper which uses a Fishbone & ...

Understanding the notion of lose or win of angular momentum in accretion disk

Here is below a slide of one of my lecture in planetology : I understand well the fact that ring A will be slow down by friction with ring B since ring B is rotating slower and the inverse process (...

Resources in magnetized accretion disk

I'm looking for some resources in magnetized accretion disk. Preferably a book or an article review that starts with un-magnetized accretion disk theory. While I have some familiarity with accretion ...
