We present results from axisymmetric, time-dependent hydrodynamical (HD) and magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) simulations of a gaseous envelope collapsing onto a black hole (BH). We consider gas with so small angular momentum that after an…
The transport of magnetic flux to outside of collapsing molecular clouds is a required step to allow the formation of stars. Although ambipolar diffusion is often regarded as a key mechanism for that, it has been recently argued that it may…
We have argued that magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence in an accretion disk naturally produces hoop-stresses, and that in a geometrically-thick flow these stresses could both drive and collimate an outflow. We based this argument on an…
Stellar magnetism, explorable via polarimetry, is a crucial driver of activity, ionization, photodissociation, chemistry and winds in stellar environments. Thus it has an important impact on the atmospheres and magnetospheres of surrounding…
Recent observations that indicate that some extrasolar planets observed in transit can experience mass loss from their surfaces. Motivated by these findings, this paper considers outflows from Hot Jupiters in the regime where the flow is…
The molecular phase of supernova-driven outflows originates from the cold, molecular gas in the disc of a star-forming galaxy, and may carry a substantial fraction of the wind mass flux in some galaxies, but it remains poorly understood.…

Most large scale dynamo research for astrophysical rotators focuses on interior flow driven helical dynamos (FDHDs), but larger scale coronal fields most directly influence observations. It is thus important to understand the relationship…
The role of MHD turbulence in astrophysical environments is still highly debated. An important question that permeates this debate is the transport of magnetic flux. This is particularly important, for instance, in the context of star…
Winds from black hole accretion disks are essential ingredients in understanding the coevolution between the supermassive black hole and its host galaxy. The great difference of dynamical ranges from small-scale accretion disk simulations…

Stellar feedback in the form of radiation pressure and magnetically-driven collimated outflows may limit the maximum mass that a star can achieve and affect the star-formation efficiency of massive pre-stellar cores. Here we present a…
Dynamical contraction of a slowly-rotating magnetized cloud is studied using the magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) simulations. In the isothermal stage ($n \la n_{\rm A} \sim 10^{10}{\rm cm}^{-3}$), the cloud evolves similarly to that expected…
