In the past decade, hundreds of exoplanets have been discovered in extremely short orbits below 10 days. Unlike in the Solar System, planets in these systems orbit their host stars close enough to disturb the stellar magnetic field lines.…
A three-dimensional (3D) MHD model is applied to simulate the evolution of a large-scale magnetic field in a barred galaxy possessing a gaseous halo extending to about 2.8 kpc above the galactic plane. As the model input we use a…
Stars and planets in close systems are magnetised but the influence of magnetic fields on their tidal responses (and vice versa) and dissipation rates has not been well explored. We present exploratory nonlinear magnetohydrodynamical (MHD)…
Understanding the on-chip motion of magnetic particles in a microfluidic environment is key to realizing magnetic particle-based Lab-on-a-chip systems for medical diagnostics. In this work, a simulation model is established to quantify the…
Stellar magnetosphere and accretion disk interact, and a result should be outflow launched from the innermost vicinity of a protostellar object. We simulated physical conditions in this region by resistive MHD simulations. Outflows…

Tidal interaction between an exoplanet and its host star is a possible pathway to transfer angular momentum between the planetary orbit and the stellar spin. In cases where the planetary orbital period is shorter than the stellar rotation…
