Accretion disks and astrophysical jets are used to model many active astrophysical objects, viz., young stars, relativistic stars, and active galactic nuclei. In this paper we present self-consistent time-dependent simulations of supersonic…
Axisymmetric magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations have been applied to investigate the interrelation of a central stellar magnetosphere and stellar wind with a surrounding magnetized disk outflow and how the overall formation of a large…
We have performed self-consistent 2.5-dimensional nonsteady MHD numerical simulations of jet formation as long as possible, including the dynamics of accretion disks. Although the previous nonsteady MHD simulations for astrophysical jets…
We investigate the launching mechanism of relativistic jets from black hole sources, in particular the strong winds from the surrounding accretion disk. Numerical investigations of the disk wind launching - the simulation of the…
The most accepted model for jet production is based on the magneto-centrifugal acceleration out off an accretion disk that surrounds the central source (Blandford & Payne, 1982). This scenario, however, does not explain, e.g., the…
The launching of magnetohydrodynamic outflows from accretion disks is considered. We formulate a model for the local vertical structure of a thin disk threaded by a poloidal magnetic field of dipolar symmetry. The model consists of an…
We examine, parametrically, the interaction between the magnetosphere of a rotating, young stellar object (YSO) and a circumstellar accretion disk using 2.5-D (cylindrically symmetric) numerical magnetoydrodynamic simulations. The…
We present fully three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic jet launching simulations of a jet source orbiting in a binary system. We consider a time-dependent binary gravitational potential, thus all tidal forces that are experienced in the…
In this paper, steady-state MHD calculations of non-relativistic magnetized accretion discs driving jets are presented. For the first time, an energy equation describing the effects of entropy generation along streamlines is included. Using…
It is generally accepted that the launching of astrophysical jets requires a large-scale magnetic field threading a central object (black hole or star) and/or its surrounding accretion disc. However, the collimation mechanism far away from…
We present the first-ever simulations of non-ideal magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) stellar magnetospheric winds coupled with disc-driven jets where the resistive and viscous accretion disc is self-consistently described. These innovative MHD…
A large body of theoretical and computational work shows that jets - modelled as magnetized disk winds - exert an external torque on their underlying disks that can efficiently remove angular momentum and act as major drivers of disk…
Jets and outflows are commonly observed in young stellar objects (YSOs), yet their origins remain debated. Using 3D non-ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of a circumstellar disk threaded by a large-scale open poloidal magnetic…
We present 2.5-D global, ideal MHD simulations of magnetically and rotationally driven protostellar jets from Keplerian accretion discs, wherein only the initial magnetic field strength at the inner radius of the disc, $B_{\rm i}$, is…
(Abridged) Finite radius accretion disks are a strong candidate for launching astrophysical jets from their inner parts and disk-winds are considered as the basic component of such magnetically collimated outflows. The only available…
There is a broad consensus that accretion onto supermassive black holes and consequent jet formation power the observed emission from active galactic nuclei (AGNs). However, there has been less agreement about how jets form in accretion…
The theory of jet emitting disks (JEDs) provides a mathematical framework for a self-consistent treatment of steady-state accretion and ejection. A large-scale vertical magnetic field threads the accretion disk where magnetic turbulence…
Magnetic fields are important for accretion disc structure. Magnetic fields in a disc system may be transported with the accreted matter. They can be associated with either the central body and/or jet, and be fossil or dynamo excited in…
