Notes. The first column refers to the type of accretion model, the second column to the initial maximum values of 2p/B2, and the third column to the initial maximum magnetization σmax. The fourth column corresponds to the module used in the BHAC, ideal or resistive, and the next column lists the value of the uniform resistivity η we employed (ideal models have η = 0). The next column reports the resolution of each run, Cols. 7 and 8 report the inner radius and maximum density radii of the torus, and Col. 9 lists the outer radius of the domain in units of rg. The two last columns report the average MRI quality factor Qθ at the heart of the torus (Event Horizon Telescope Collaboration 2019b) for the time before (Col. 10) and after 4000 M (last column). (More details on the MRI quality factor can be found in Appendix C).
