Elongated bar-like features are ubiquitous in galaxies, occurring at the centers of approximately two-thirds of spiral disks in the nearby Universe. Due to gravitational interactions between the bar and the other components of galaxies, it…

The magnetic chemically peculiar (mCP) stars of the upper main sequence exhibit strong, globally-organised magnetic fields which are inclined to the rotational axis and facilitate the development of surface abundance inhomogeneities…

Dynamical instability is shown to occur in differentially rotating polytropes with N = 3.33 and $T/|W| \gtrsim 0.14$. This instability has a strong m=1 mode, although the m=2, 3, and 4 modes also appear. Such instability may allow a…

In a recent work, [1] the equilibrium of a cluster of charged dust particles mutually interacting with screened Coulomb force and radially confined by an externally applied electric field in a 2-D configuration was studied. It was shown…

There are indications from the large-N analysis that multi-channel Kondo lattices have topological order. We use the coupled-wire construction to study the channel paramagnetic regime of a two-channel Kondo lattice model of spin-1/2 SU(2)…

We consider a star as a compressible fluid subject to gravitational and magnetic forces. This leads to an Euler-Poisson system coupled to a magnetic field, which may be regarded as an MHD model together with gravity. The star executes…
