The break-up of a two-dimensional circular disc by normal and oblique impact on a hard frictionless plate is investigated by molecular dynamics simulations. The disc is composed of numerous unbreakable randomly shaped convex polygons…
The problem of interaction of the rotating magnetic field, frozen to a star, with a thin well conducting accretion disk is solved exactly. It is shown that a disk pushes the magnetic field lines towards a star, compressing the stellar…
The interaction between a planet located in the inner region of a disc and the warped outer region is studied. We consider the stage of evolution after the planet has cleared-out a gap, so that the planetary orbit evolves only under the…
We present a linear analysis of the stability of accretion disks in which angular momentum is removed by the magnetic torque exerted by a centrifugally driven wind. The effects of the dependence of the wind torque on field strength and…

The mechanical response of a circularly-driven disk in a dissipative medium is considered. We focus on the role played by viscous friction in the spinning motion of the disk, especially on the effect called reverse rotation, where the…
A turbulent channel flow modified by the motion of discs that are free to rotate under the action of wall turbulence is studied numerically. The Navier-Stokes equations are coupled nonlinearly with the dynamical equation of the disc motion,…
Standard, planar accretion discs operate through a dissipative mechanism, usually thought to be turbulent, and often modelled as a viscosity. This acts to take energy from the radial shear, enabling the flow of mass and angular momentum in…
We perform a long-term simulation of star and disk formation using three-dimensional non-ideal magnetohydrodynamics. The simulation starts from a prestellar cloud and proceeds through the long-term evolution of the circumstellar disk until…

We demonstrate the investigation of thin accretion disc surrounding the Einstein- Euler-Heisenberg-Anti-de Sitter black hole. Additionally, we analyze the black hole event horizons and compute their effective potential and equations of…
The inner region of the accretion disk onto a rotating magnetized central star (neutron star, white dwarf or T Tauri star) is subjected to magnetic torques which induce warping and precession of the disk. The origin of these torques lies in…
Accretion discs are fundamental to many astrophysical systems, providing the conversion of gravitational potential energy into radiation that we can observe. In many systems there is evidence that discs are warped; from spatially-resolved…
Disk accretion onto a slowly rotating neutron star with a weak magnetic field $H < 3\times 10^8$ gauss is considered in a wide range of luminosities $1/100 < L/L_{edd} < 1,$ where $L_{edd}$ is the Eddington luminosity. We construct a theory…

We present evidence that recurrent spiral activity, long manifested in simulations of disk galaxies, results from the super-position of a few transient spiral modes. Each mode lasts between 5 and 10 rotations at its corotation radius where…
We review results on the dynamics of warped gaseous discs. We consider tidal perturbation of a Keplerian disc by a companion star orbiting in a plane inclined to the disc. The perturbation induces the precession of the disc, and thus of any…
This Letter presents a study of the geometry and motion of the Galactic disk using open clusters in the Gaia era. The findings suggest that the inclination of the Galactic disk increases gradually from the inner to the outer disk, with a…
I show that the recent calculation of Moffatt's regarding the viscous dissipation of a spinning coin overlooked the importance of the finite width of the viscous boundary layer. My new estimates are more in accord with that observed. I also…
