Accretion Disk Simulations

Accretion Disk Simulations is a computational methodology within numerical astrophysics that specifically models the dynamical, radiative, and magnetic processes in rotating gaseous structures around compact celestial objects by numerically solving the equations of hydrodynamics or magnetohydrodynamics under general relativistic or Newtonian gravitational frameworks.
