Radiative cooling in MADs above a transition accretion rate creates thinner denser filaments with increased efficiency, rendering conventional scale height measures misleading and motivating a new definition based on the polar position of the density maximum.
General-relativistic ray-tracing shows that non-flat accretion disk geometries systematically bias iron Kα-derived black hole spin, coronal height, and inclination estimates when fit with flat-disk models.
GRRMHD simulations of CEM-adapted tori find thermal instability in 17-46 days with spin-dependent X-ray decline and soft excess matching AT2021ehb observations.
Implements advanced GRMHD numerical techniques in Athena++ and demonstrates them via simulations of magnetically arrested disks around black holes.
