Impacts of radiative cooling on the images of a black hole shadow and extended jets in two-temperature GRMHD simulations
Radiative cooling in GRMHD simulations of M87* makes the inner disk dimmer and the jets more extended and brighter.

Record completeness
Claims
Radiative cooling sharply decreases the electron temperature in the dense inner disk around the equatorial plane (r ≲ 10 r_g), while slightly reducing jet sheath temperature, leading to a dimmer disk, more extended and brighter jets, and reduced total flux.
The two-temperature GRMHD simulations with chosen electron heating prescriptions and nonthermal distributions accurately capture the dominant physical processes at the simulated accretion rates for M87*.
Radiative cooling in two-temperature GRMHD simulations for M87* produces cooler inner disks, dimmer disks, brighter and more extended jets, and lower total flux at 230 GHz compared to non-cooling models.
