Calculations of the heat flux carried by plasma to the wall of a magnetic fusion machine often assume that power flows only along the field lines, but this cannot be true in general. Instead, we treat the plasma as an anisotropic non-linear…

Heated pipe flow is widely used in thermal engineering applications, but the presence of buoyancy force can cause intermittency, or multiple flow states at the same parameter values. Such changes in the flow lead to substantial changes in…
We investigate the diffusive scaling of the Lorentz gas in the presence of an external force of mean-field type. In the weak coupling regime and for diffusive time scales, the test particle's law converges to the probability density…
