Recent work by Pringle and by Maloney, Begelman & Pringle has shown that geometrically thin, optically thick, accretion disks are unstable to warping driven by radiation torque from the central source. In this paper we generalize the study…
We investigate the asymmetric integrable turbulence and rogue waves (RWs) emerging from the modulation instability (MI) of plane waves for the DNLS equation. The \(n\)-th moments and ensemble-averaged kinetic and potential energy exhibit…
Warped astrophysical discs are usually treated as laminar viscous flows, which have anomalous properties when the disc is nearly Keplerian and the viscosity is small: fast horizontal shearing motions and large torques are generated, which…
In the framework of metric $f(R)$ gravity, we find the dispersion relation for the propagation of tightly wound spiral density waves in the surface of rotating, self-gravitating disks. Also, new Toomre-like stability criteria for…
The spontaneous emission of internal waves (IWs) from balanced mesoscale eddies has been previously proposed to provide a source of oceanic IW kinetic energy (KE). This study examines the mechanisms leading to the spontaneous emission of…
We consider a two-dimensional, incompressible, inviscid fluid with variable density, subject to the action of gravity. Assuming a stable equilibrium density profile, we adopt the so-called Boussinesq approximation, which neglects density…
It was recently shown that a coherent oscillation of an axion can cause an efficient parametric resonance, leading to a prominent emission of the gravitational waves (GWs). In this paper, conducting the Floquet analysis, we investigate the…
Horseshoe-shaped brightness asymmetries of several transitional discs are thought to be caused by large-scale vortices. Anticyclonic vortices are efficiently collect dust particles, therefore they can play a major role in planet formation.…
We identify and study a number of new, rapidly growing instabilities of dust grains in protoplanetary disks, which may be important for planetesimal formation. The study is based on the recognition that dust-gas mixtures are generically…
We study the linear perturbations of collisionless near-Keplerian discs. Such systems are models for debris discs around stars and the stellar discs surrounding supermassive black holes at the centres of galaxies. Using a finite-element…
A one-armed spiral instability has been found to develop in differentially rotating stellar models that have a relatively stiff, $n=1$ polytropic equation of state and a wide range of rotational energies. This suggests that such…
In order to understand star formation it is important to understand the dynamics of atomic and molecular clouds in the interstellar medium (ISM). Nonlinear hydrodynamic flows are a key component to the ISM. One route by which nonlinear…
In a composite fluid system of two gravitationally coupled barotropic scale-free discs bearing a rotation curve $v\propto r^{-\beta}$ and a power-law surface mass density $\Sigma_0\propto r^{-\alpha}$ with $\alpha=1+2\beta$, we construct…
Gravitational coupling between planets and protoplanetary discs is responsible for many important phenomena such as planet migration and gap formation. The key quantitative characteristics of this coupling is the excitation torque density…
A linear analysis of baroclinic instability in a stellar radiation zone with radial differential rotation is performed. The instability onsets at a very small rotation inhomogeneity. There are two families of unstable disturbances…
Young protoplanetary discs and the outer radii of active galactic nucleii may be subject to gravitational instability and, as a consequence, fall into a `gravitoturbulent' state. While in this state, appreciable angular momentum can be…
Recent observations show that planet formation is already underway in young systems, when the protostar is still embedded into the molecular cloud and the accretion disc is massive. In such environments, the role of self gravity (SG) and…
Gravitational instabilities (GIs) are most likely a fundamental process during the early stages of protoplanetary disc formation. Recently, there have been detections of spiral features in young, embedded objects that appear consistent with…
We carry out three dimensional smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations to study the impact of planet-disc interactions on a gravitationally unstable protoplanetary disc. We find that the impact of a planet on the disc's evolution can be…
The presence of a giant planet in a low-viscosity disc can create a gap edge in the disc's radial density profile sharp enough to excite the Rossby Wave Instability. This instability may evolve into dust-trapping vortices that might explain…
