We investigate the behavior of flows, including turbulent flows, driven by a horizontal body-force and subject to a vertical magnetic field, with the following question in mind: for very strong applied magnetic field, is the flow mostly…
We study the behavior at infinity, with respect to the space variable, of solutions to the magnetohydrodynamics equations in ${\bf R}^d$. We prove that if the initial magnetic field decays sufficiently fast, then the plasma flow behaves as…
We consider the evolution of arbitrarily large perturbations of a prescribed pure hydrodynamical flow of an electrically conducting fluid. We study whether the flow perturbations as well as the generated magnetic fields decay or grow with…
We discuss a manifestly covariant formulation of ideal relativistic magnetohydrodynamics, which has been recently used in astrophysical and heavy-ion contexts, and compare it to other similar frameworks. We show that the covariant equations…

Magnetic induction in magnetohydrodynamic fluids at magnetic Reynolds number (Rm) less than~1 has long been known to cause magnetic drag. Here, we show that when $\mathrm{Rm} \gg 1$ and the fluid is in a hydrodynamic-dominated regime in…
We study the evolution of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence taking into account the chiral anomaly effect. This chiral magnetohydrodynamic description of the plasma is expected to be relevant for temperatures comparable to the electroweak…

Physical experiments and numerical simulations have revealed a remarkable stabilizing phenomenon: a background magnetic field stabilizes and dampens electrically conducting fluids. This paper provides a rigorous mathematical justification…
We consider a low-dimensional model of convection in a horizontally magnetized layer of a viscous fluid heated from below. We analyze in detail the stability of hydromagnetic convection for a wide range of two control parameters. Namely,…

We use Lagrangian effective field theory techniques to construct the equations of motion for an ideal relativistic fluid whose constituent degrees of freedom have microscopic polarization. We discuss the meaning of such a system, and argue…
Variational principles for magnetohydrodynamics were introduced by previous authors both in Lagrangian and Eulerian form. In previous works [1] Yahalom & Lynden-Bell and later Yahalom [2] introduced a simpler Eulerian variational principle…
We briefly review helicity dynamics, inverse and bi-directional cascades in fluid and magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence, with an emphasis on the latter. The energy of a turbulent system, an invariant in the non-dissipative case, is…
