Toward General Relativistic Magnetohydrodynamics Simulations in Stationary Nonvacuum Spacetimes

Accretion of magnetized gas on compact astrophysical objects such as black holes (BHs) has been successfully modeled using general relativistic magnetohydrodynamic (GRMHD) simulations. These simulations have largely been performed in the Kerr metric, which describes the spacetime of a vacuum and sta...
