Summary

Story summary

A new simulation method studies rotating regular black holes using the Hayward regular black hole model, which avoids singularities.
The approach yields realistic, time-varying images of black holes by modeling gas dynamics and simulating light flickering from the accretion disk.
The study indicates the Hayward model better represents observed phenomena, such as shifts in magnetic fields around supermassive black holes like M87*, than standard models.
