| Description: | Abstract: I will present results of MHD simulations investigating the launching of of astrophysical jets, covering both relativistic and non-relativistic flows. I will cover the topics of the 1) physical conditions at the launching point of jets, 2) the origin of the jet launching magnetic field as generated by a mean-field accretion disk dynamo, and 3) general relativistic jet launching from close to a black hole.
I will start 0) with an introduction on the basic physics involved. The image shows these simulations (GR-MHD). |
