“…Such a formulation for the system of relativistic ideal MHD equations is found in [10,11,13], and a fully covariant geometric formulation is derived in our previous work [15]. We rewrite the formulation in [10,11,13] as suited to our numerical method. We introduce the basis, {t α , φ α , e α A }, associated with the coordinates t, φ and two other spatial coordinates x A , where t and φ are chosen along the symmetry vectors t α and φ α and normalized as t…”
