Large-scale magnetic field is crucial in launching and collimating the jets/outflows. It is found that the magnetic flux can be efficiently transported inward by the fast moving corona above a thin disk. In this work we investigate the…
We investigate the model of the disc/corona accretion flow around the black hole. The model, parameterized by the total (i.e. disk plus corona) accretion rate, $\dot m$, mass of the black hole, $M$ and the viscosity parameter, $\alpha$,…

A hot corona is suggested to be above the standard thin disk. The anisotropy of hard X-ray emission in radio-quiet active galactic nuclei implies that the corona is not static and probably moves outwards like winds. We perform…
