Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations of Disk–Magnetized Star Interactions in the Quiescent Regime: Funnel Flows and Angular Momentum Transport

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations have been used to study disk accretion to a rotating magnetized star with an aligned dipole moment. Quiescent initial conditions were developed in order to avoid the fast initial evolution seen in earlier studies. A set of simulations was performed for different... View More
