From Feast to Famine: A Systematic Study of Accretion onto Oblique Pulsars with 3D GRMHD Simulations

From Feast to Famine: A Systematic Study of Accretion onto Oblique Pulsars with 3D GRMHD Simulations

Disk-fed accretion onto neutron stars can power a wide range of astrophysical sources ranging from X-ray binaries, to accretion-powered millisecond pulsars, ultraluminous X-ray sources, and gamma-ray bursts. A crucial parameter controlling the gas–magnetosphere interaction is the strength of the ste...
