Towards pseudo-Newtonian black hole jets: comparison of forces

Maciej Jabłoński, Aleksandra Kotek, Miljenko Čemeljić, Włodek Kluźniak

We perform resistive and viscous MHD simulations of axial jet launching from a magnetized thin accretion disk around a supermassive black hole. We compare the forces in our pseudo-Newtonian simulations for the Paczyński-Wiita and Kluźniak-Lee potentials. The results will help to find magnetic field configurations and physical parameters conducive to jet launching.
