Intermediate-mass black holes (with $\geq\!10^5\,M_\odot$) are promising candidates for the origin of supermassive black holes (with $\sim\!10^9\,M_\odot$) in the early universe (redshift $z\sim6$). Chon & Omukai (2020) firstly pointed out…
Magnetic fields advected along with low angular momentum accretion flows predominantly become toroidal due to the strong azimuthal velocity close to a black hole. We study self-consistently the movements of these flux tubes inside an…

Astrophysical black holes do not exist in vacuum, and their motion is affected by the galactic environment. As a black hole moves it attracts stars and matter, creating a wake that, in turn, exerts an effective friction slowing down the…
