How embedded, actively accreting low-mass protostars accrete their mass is still greatly debated. Observations are now piecing together the puzzle of embedded protostellar accretion, in particular with new facilities in the near-infrared.…

Viscous Keplerian discs become sub-Keplerian close to a black hole since they pass through sonic points before entering into it. We study the time evolution of polytropic viscous accretion discs (both in one and two dimensional flows) using…
(Abridged) We test how accurately the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) numerical technique can follow spherically-symmetric Bondi accretion. Using the 3D SPH code GADGET-3, we perform simulations of gas accretion onto a central…

The dynamics of accreting and outgoing flows around compact objects depends crucially on the strengths and configurations of the magnetic fields therein, especially of the large-scale fields that remain coherent beyond turbulence scales.…
We consider the accretion process in a disk with magnetic fields that are dragged in from the interstellar medium by gravitational collapse. Two diffusive processes are at work in the system: (1) "viscous" torques exerted by turbulent and…
We investigate the evolution of magnetohydrodynamic/hydromagnetic perturbations in the presence of stochastic noise in rotating shear flows. The particular emphasis is the flows whose angular velocity decreases but specific angular momentum…

We investigate accretion onto a central star, with the size, rotation rate, and magnetic dipole of a young stellar object, to study the flow pattern (velocity and density) of the fluid within and outside of the disc. We perform resistive…

We discuss results of global 3D MHD simulations of accretion on to a rotating magnetized star with a tilted dipole magnetic field, where the accretion is driven by the magneto-rotational instability (MRI). The simulations show that…
We present a ``cyclic zoom'' method to capture the dynamics of accretion flows onto black holes across a vast range of spatial and temporal scales in general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations. In this method, we…

Dynamics of linear perturbations in a differentially rotating accretion disk with non-homogeneous vertical structure is investigated. It has been found that turbulent viscosity results in instability of both pinching oscillations, and…

Large-scale magnetic fields are relevant for a number of dynamical processes in accretion disks, including driving turbulence, reconnection events, and launching outflows. Numerical simulations have indicated that the initial strengths and…
In this study, we investigate the effect of resistivity on the dynamics of global magnetohydrodynamic accretion flows (Res-MHD) around a spinning supermassive black hole. We perform a comparative study of 2D and 3D resistive models around…
