Recent study suggests that the streaming instability, one of the leading mechanisms for driving the formation of planetesimals, may not be as efficient as previously thought. Under some disc conditions, the growth timescale of the…

We investigate the stability of supercurrents in a Bose-Einstein condensate with one-dimensional spin-orbit and Raman couplings. The consequence of the lack of Galilean invariance is explicitly discussed. We show that in the plane-wave…

We present accurate simulations of the dynamical bar-mode instability in full General Relativity focussing on two aspects which have not been investigated in detail in the past. Namely, on the persistence of the bar deformation once the…
