We introduce a new method, (Doppler Velocity Reconstruction or DoVeR), for reconstructing two-component velocity fields from color Doppler scans. DoVeR employs the streamfunction-vorticity equation, which satisfies mass conservation while…
We present our recent results from numerical simulations of a magnetized flow in the vicinity of a black hole in the context of the collapsar model for GRBs. The simulations show that after an initial transient, the flow settles into a…
The observational expectation of polarization measurements of thermal dust radiation is investigated to find information on molecular outflows based on magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) and radiation transfer simulations. There are two major…
High-resolution spectroscopy in soft X-rays will open a new window to map multiphase gas in galaxy clusters and probe physics of the intracluster medium (ICM), including chemical enrichment histories, circulation of matter and energy during…
An analytic model of the magnetic field line behavior in a stellarator is used to study the subtlety of the concept of an outermost magnetic surface. The analytic model that we use has a central region of nested magnetic surfaces. The…
Magnetically arrested accretion flows are thought to fuel some of the supermassive black holes and to power their relativistic jets. We calculate and study a time sequence of linear and circular polarimetric images of numerical, high…
Context. On the basis of XMM-Newton observations, we investigate the energy balance of selected magnetic cataclysmic variables, which have shown an extreme soft-to-hard X-ray flux ratio in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey. Aims. We intend to…
We describe the results of a sequence of simulations of gravitational collapse in a turbulent magnetized region. The parameters are chosen to be representative of molecular cloud material. We find that several protostellar cores and…

We review infrared (1-2.5 microns) observations of cataclysmic variables, a relatively unexplored part of the spectrum in which the dominant sources of emission are the secondary star, the outer regions of the accretion disc and the…
We study a self-similar circulation model for protostellar bipolar outflows. The model is axisymmetric and stationary, and now includes Poynting flux. Compared to an earlier version of the model, this addition produces faster and more…
Polars (or AM Her systems) are cataclysmic variables without a disc due to the strong magnetic field of the white dwarf. Most of their emission comes from the region where the accretion column impacts the white dwarf and cools through…
A two-dimensional electrodynamic model is used to study particle acceleration and non-thermal emission mechanisms in the pulsar magnetospheres. We solve distribution of the accelerating electric field with the emission process and the…
The intermediate state of type-I superconductors presents a classic paradigm of modulated pattern formation, arising from the competition between short-range attractive and long-range repulsive vortex-vortex interactions. However, direct…
Standing slow mode waves in hot flaring loops are exclusively observed in spectrometers and are used to diagnose the magnetic field strength and temperature of the loop structure. Due to the lack of spatial information, the longitudinal…

Bipolar outflows are present in many disk-accreting astrophysical systems. In disk-accreting cataclysmic variables (CVs), these outflows are responsible for most of the strong features in the ultraviolet spectra of these systems. However,…
