Rapid, strongly magnetized accretion in the zero-net-vertical-flux shearing box by Jonathan Squire, Eliot Quataert, Philip F. Hopkins

“…The efficient angular momentum transport in the low-$\beta$ state may resolve long-standing tension between predictions of magnetorotational turbulence (at high $\beta$) and observations; likewise, the bifurcation in accretion states we identify may be important for understanding the state transitions observed in dwarf novae, X-ray binaries, and changing-look AGN. …”
