Description: Density (left) and magnetic energy density (right, zoom-in) in a turbulent, radiatively inefficient black hole accretion disk simulation (spin parameter a=0.9375). The simulation is performed in cartesian Kerr-Schild coordinates using 8 levels of mesh refinement (black lines are grid-lines). Simulation with the open source black hole accretion code (www.bhac.science).
