Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence and Angular Momentum Transport in Accretion Disks
It is currently believed that angular momentum transport in accretion disks is mediated by magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence driven by the magnetorotational instability (MRI). More than 15 years after its discovery, an accretion disk model that incorporates the MRI as the mechanism driving the M...
