Bondi or not Bondi: The impact of resolution on accretion and drag force modelling for Supermassive Black Holes

Whilst in galaxy-size simulations, supermassive black holes (SMBH) are entirely handled by sub-grid algorithms, computational power now allows the accretion radius of such objects to be resolved in smaller scale simulations. In this paper, we investigate the impact of resolution on two commonly used...
