Scientific paper

We have performed a 2.5D, nonsteady, general-relativistic MHD simulation. Initially, we assumed a uniform magnetic field, a geometrically thin accretion disk rotating at Keplerian velocity, and a hydrostatic corona around a Schwarzschild black hole. We have investigated the formation mechanism of gas-pressure driven jets expected by Koide et al. and found the strong dependence of jet velocities (γj = 1 / √1 - Vj2; Lorentz factor of jets) on the ratio of the density of the accretion disk to that of the corona (ρd / ρc), where γj2 - γj ~(ρd / ρc)0.75.
