This paper presents a three-dimensional simulation of chromospheric jets with twisted magnetic field lines. Detailed treatments of the photospheric radiative transfer and the equation of states allow us to model realistic thermal convection…
Gamma-Ray Bursts are the most luminous events in the Universe, and are excellent laboratories to study extreme physical phenomena in the cosmos. Despite a long trajectory of progress in understanding these highly energetic events, there are…
Relativistic jets from black holes can extract energy not only from accretion but also directly from the black hole's spin, as described by the Blandford-Znajek mechanism. A longstanding question is whether magnetic flux can accumulate near…
X-shaped radio galaxies (XRGs) produce misaligned X-shaped jet pairs and make up $\lesssim10\%$ of radio galaxies. XRGs are thought to emerge in galaxies featuring a binary supermassive black hole ($\rm SMBH$), $\rm SMBH$ merger, or…

Multi-wavelength observations suggest that the accretion disk in the hard and intermediate states of X-ray binaries (XRBs) and active galactic nuclei (AGN) transitions from a cold, thin disk at large distances into a hot, thick flow close…
A circular disc impacting on a water surface creates a remarkably vigorous jet. Upon impact an axisymmetric air cavity forms and eventually pinches off in a single point halfway down the cavity. Immediately after closure two fast…
We address the production of black holes at LHC in space times with compactified space-like large extra dimensions (LXD). Final state black hole production leads to suppression of high-P_T jets, i.e. a sharp cut-off in the cross section for…
Jet precession is sometimes invoked to explain asymmetries in radio galaxy (RG) jets and "X/S/Z-shape" radio galaxies, caused by the presence of a binary black hole companion to the source active galactic nucleus (AGN) or by accretion…
We present a new approach for stably evolving general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations in regions where the magnetization $\sigma=b^2/\rho c^2$ becomes large. GRMHD codes typically struggle to evolve plasma above…
We construct a supersymmetric rotating black hole with asymptotically flat four-dimensional spacetime times a circle, by superposing an infinite number of BMPV black hole solutions at the same distance in one direction. The near horizon…

Highly relativistic jets are most probably driven by strong magnetic fields and are launched from the accretion disk surrounding a central black hole. In this paper we review some of our recent results considering the two-dimensional…
