Tidal torques acting on a gaseous accretion disk around a binary black hole can create a gap in the disk near the orbital radius. At late times, when the binary inspiral timescale due to gravitational wave emission becomes shorter than the…

Turbulence in an accretion disk launches Alfv\'en waves (AWs) that propagate away from the disk along magnetic field lines. Because the Alfv\'en speed varies with distance from the disk, the AWs undergo partial non-WKB reflection, and…
