Description

In our 3D numerical simulations of accretion disk around a supermassive black hole with the GRMHD code Athena++, we follow the time evolution of magnetic field. In the case of SANE configuration, with multiple loops of oppositely directed initial poloidal magnetic field in the torus around a black hole, we follow the forming of flux ropes atop the disk, and their release into corona.
