Collapsars - rapidly rotating stellar cores that form black holes (BHs) - can power gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) and are proposed to be key contributors to the production of heavy elements in the Universe via the rapid neutron capture process ($r$-process

Quasars are powered by supermassive black hole (SMBH) accretion disks, yet standard disk models are inconsistent with many quasar observations. Recently, Hopkins et al. (2024) simulated the formation of a quasar disk feeding a SMBH of mass $M=1.3\tim

Accretion disks around both stellar-mass and supermassive black holes are likely often warped. Whenever a disk is warped, its scale height varies with azimuth. Sufficiently strong warps cause extreme compressions of the scale height, which fluid parc

Recent results of the event horizon-scale images of M87* and Sagittarius A* from the Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration show that strong magnetic fields are likely present around the central black holes (BHs) in these sources. Magnetically arreste

The tidal disruption event (TDE) AT2022cmc represents the fourth known example of a relativistic jet produced by the tidal disruption of a stray star providing a unique probe of the formation and evolution of relativistic jets in otherwise dormant su

From Feast to Famine: A Systematic Study of Accretion onto Oblique Pulsars with 3D GRMHD Simulations
Disk-fed accretion onto neutron stars can power a wide range of astrophysical sources ranging from X-ray binaries, to accretion powered millisecond pulsars, ultra-luminous X-ray sources, and gamma-ray bursts. A crucial parameter controlling the gas-m

Accreting neutron stars differ from black holes by the presence of the star's own magnetic field, whose interaction with the accretion flow is a central component in understanding these systems' disk structure, outflows, jets, and spin evolution. It

The observability of afterglows from binary neutron star mergers, occurring within AGN disks is investigated. We perform 3D GRMHD simulations of a post-merger system, and follow the jet launched from the compact object. We use semi-analytic technique

Magnetic fields regulate black hole (BH) accretion, governing both the inflow and outflow dynamics. When a BH becomes saturated with large-scale vertical magnetic flux, it enters a magnetically-arrested disk (MAD) state. The dynamically-important BH

Jetted astrophysical phenomena with black hole (BH) engines, including binary mergers, jetted tidal disruption events, and X-ray binaries, require a large-scale vertical magnetic field for efficient jet formation. However, a dynamo mechanism that cou
