First Sagittarius A* Event Horizon Telescope Results. V. Testing Astrophysical Models of the Galactic Center Black Hole

TL;DR: In this article , the authors compare resolved EHT data at 230 GHz and unresolved non-EHT observations from radio to X-ray wavelengths to predictions from a library of models based on time-dependent general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics simulations, including aligned, tilted, and stellar-wind-fed simulations; radiative transfer is performed assuming both thermal and nonthermal electron distribution functions.

First-Order General-Relativistic Viscous Fluid Dynamics

- 24 May 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this article , the first generalization of Navier-Stokes theory to general relativity is presented, which satisfies all of the following properties: (a) the system coupled to Einstein's equations is causal and strongly hyperbolic; (b) equilibrium states are stable; (c) all leading dissipative contributions are present, i.e., shear viscosity, bulk visccosity and thermal conductivity; (d) nonzero baryon number is included; (e) entropy production is non-negative in the regime of validity of the theory; (f) all the above hold in the nonlinear regime without any simplifying symmetry assumptions.

A Universal Power-law Prescription for Variability from Synthetic Images of Black Hole Accretion Flows

Boris Georgiev, +268 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors present a framework for characterizing the spatiotemporal power spectrum of the variability expected from the horizon-scale emission structure around supermassive black holes, and apply this framework to a library of general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations.

Smoothed particle hydrodynamics.

TL;DR: In this paper, the theory and application of Smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) since its inception in 1977 are discussed, focusing on the strengths and weaknesses, the analogy with particle dynamics and the numerous areas where SPH has been successfully applied.

A Class of Methods for Solving Nonlinear Simultaneous Equations

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss certain modifications to Newton's method designed to reduce the number of function evaluations required during the iterative solution process of an iterative problem solving problem, such that the most efficient process will be that which requires the smallest number of functions evaluations.

Transient relativistic thermodynamics and kinetic theory

TL;DR: In this article, a generalized formulation of irreversible thermodynamics applicable to the description of thermal phenomena in the presence of strong gravitational fields, fast rotation and rapid fluctuations is developed, from both the phenomenological and kinetic points of view.

The Thermodynamics of Irreversible Processes. III. Relativistic Theory of the Simple Fluid

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the first law of thermodynamics is a scalar equation, and not the fourth component of the energy-momentum principle, and temperature and entropy also prove to be scalars.

An improved weighted essentially non-oscillatory scheme for hyperbolic conservation laws

TL;DR: An improved version of the classical fifth-order weighted essentially non-oscillatory finite difference scheme of WENO-JS for hyperbolic conservation laws is developed, with a 25% reduction in CPU costs, since no mapping is necessary.
