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 & ...

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 ...

Dependence of the magneto-rotational instability (MRI) on thermal relaxation?

The MRI is the most efficient driver of turbulence in accretion discs (as measured by the effective scalar stress). The magnetic field, being properly coupled to the gas (weak coupling), connects the ...
