The linear instability of thin, vertically-isothermal Keplerian discs, under the influence of axial magnetic field is investigated. Solutions of the stability problem are found explicitly by asymptotic expansions in the small aspect ratio…
The linear stability of thin vertically-isothermal density-stratified Keplerian discs in toroidally-dominated magnetic fields is treated by asymptotic expansions in the small aspect ratio of the discs. The discs are found to be spectrally…
Motivated by the recent results of \citet{Lesur_Ogilvie10} on the transport properties of incompressible convection in protoplanetary discs, in this paper we study the role of compressibility and hence of another basic mode -- spiral…
Deviations from axial symmetry are necessary to maintain self-sustained MRI-turbulence. We define the parameters region where nonaxisymmetric MRI is excited and study dependence of the unstable modes structure and growth rates on the…
Accretion disks are highly unstable to magnetic instabilities driven by shear flow, where classically, the axisymmetric, weak-field Magneto-Rotational Instability (MRI) has received much attention through local WKB approximations. In…
Linear instability of two equilibrium configurations with either poloidal (I) or toroidal (II) dominant magnetic field components are studied in thin vertically-isothermal Keplerian discs. Solutions of the stability problem are found…
We present a perturbation theory for studying the instabilities of non-axisymmetric gaseous discs. We perturb the dynamical equations of self-gravitating fluids in the vicinity of a non-axisymmetric equilibrium, and expand the perturbed…
Thin viscous Keplerian accretion disks are considered asymptotically stable, even though they can show significant dynamic activity on short timescales. In this paper the dynamics of non-axisymmetric hydrodynamical disturbances of disks are…
The magneto-rotational decay instability (MRDI) of thin Keplerian discs threaded by poloidal magnetic fields is introduced and studied. The linear magnetohydrodynamic problem decouples into eigenvalue problems for in-plane slow- and fast-…
In this paper, we analyze the linear stability of a stellar accretion disk, having a stratified morphology. The study is performed in the framework of ideal magneto-hydrodynamics and therefore it results in a characterization of the linear…
The short time evolution of three dimensional small perturbations is studied. Exhibiting spectral asymptotic stability, thin discs are nonetheless shown to host intensive hydrodynamical activity in the shape of non modal growth of initial…
For over 30 years, the Magneto-Rotational Instability has been accepted as the mechanism driving accretion disk turbulence. Its physical basis is well understood, where an interplay between centrifugal forces and magnetic tension transfers…
A global mode is shown to be unstable to non-axisymmetric perturbations in a differentially rotating Keplerian disk containing either vertical or azimuthal magnetic fields. In an unstratified cylindrical disk model, using both global…
In Keplerian accretion disks, turbulence and magnetic fields may be jointly excited through a subcritical dynamo process involving the magnetorotational instability (MRI). High-resolution simulations exhibit a tendency towards statistical…
Aims: To quantify the transient growth of nonaxisymmetric perturbations in unstratified magnetized and stratified non-magnetized rotating linear shear flows in the shearing sheet approximation of accretion disc flows. Method: The Rayleigh…
We derive expressions for the local ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations for a warped astrophysical disc using a warped shearing box formalism. A perturbation expansion of these equations to first order in the warping amplitude leads…
We investigate shear and buoyancy instabilities in radially stratified, magnetized, cylindrical flows, for application to magnetocentrifugally driven winds and to magnetized accretion disks. We identify and study nine principal types of…
Flow nonnormality induced linear transient phenomena in thin self-gravitating astrophysical discs are studied in the shearing sheet approximation. The considered system includes two modes of perturbations: vortex and (spiral density) wave.…
We study the magnetorotational instability (MRI) using nonmodal stability techniques. Despite the spectral instability of many forms of the MRI, this proves to be a natural method of analysis that is well-suited to deal with the…
Simulations of the magnetorotational instability (MRI) in 'unstratified' shearing boxes exhibit powerful coherent flows, whereby the fluid vertically splits into countermoving planar jets or `channels'. Channel flows correspond to certain…
