Winds and Disk Turbulence Exert Equal Torques on Thick Magnetically Arrested Disks

Winds and Disk Turbulence Exert Equal Torques on Thick Magnetically Arrested Disks

The conventional accretion disk lore is that magnetized turbulence is the principal angular momentum transport process that drives accretion. However, when dynamically important large-scale magnetic fields thread an accretion disk, they can produce mass and angular momentum outflows, known as winds...
