A certain appeal to the alpha model for turbulence and related viscosity in accretion disks was that one scales the Reynolds stresses simply on the thermal pressure, assuming that turbulence driven by a certain mechanism will attain a…
In this paper we investigate gravitational instability of shocked gas layers using linear analysis. An unperturbed state is a self-gravitating isothermal layer which grows with time by the accretion of gas through shock fronts due to a…
We investigate shear-induced crystallization in a very dense flow of mono-disperse inelastic hard spheres. We consider a steady plane Couette flow under constant pressure and neglect gravity. We assume that the granular density is greater…
The electrostatic shear-flow-driven ion cyclotron instability of magnetic field aligned sheared plasma flow is investigated analytically. It is shown that the shear-flow-driven electrostatic ion cyclotron instability can be considered as a…
Recent gyrokinetic stability calculations have revealed that the spherical tokamak is susceptible to tearing parity instabilities with length scales of a few ion Larmor radii perpendicular to the magnetic field lines. Here we investigate…
The ionic-liquid-gating technique can be applied to the search for novel physical phenomena at low temperatures because of its wide controllability of the charge carrier density. Ionic-liquid gated field-effect transistors are often fragile…
We investigate the linear and nonlinear properties of the Goldreich-Schubert-Fricke (GSF) instability in stellar radiative zones with arbitrary local (radial and latitudinal) differential rotation. This instability may lead to turbulence…
The onset and characteristics of Micro-Tearing Modes (MTM) in the core of spherical (NSTX) and conventional tokamaks (ASDEX-UG and JET) are studied through local linear gyrokinetic simulations with gyro [J. Candy and E. Belli, General…
We present nonlinear magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of high-$\beta$ Wendelstein 7-X plasmas using the stellarator extension of the M3D-$C^1$ code, building on the recent work that shows benign saturation of ideal ballooning modes…
Magnetic fields are ubiquitous in the interstellar medium but are notoriously difficult to study through observation. Making use of the advances in our understanding of MHD turbulence and turbulent reconnection, the Velocity Gradient…
We investigate the turbulence driving mode of ionizing radiation from massive stars on the surrounding interstellar medium (ISM). We run hydrodynamical simulations of a turbulent cloud impinged by a plane-parallel ionization front. We find…
We use Swift blazar spectra to estimate the key intergalactic medium (IGM) properties of hydrogen column density(Nhxigm), metallicity and temperature over a redshift range of 0.03 leq z leq 4.7, using a collisional ionisation…
In this work we explore accurate new ways to derive the ionization parameter ($U$) and the equivalent effective temperature ($T_*$) in HII regions using emission-line intensities from the ionized gas. The so-called softness parameter…
A two-dimensional Ising model with short-range interactions and mobile defects describing the formation and thermal destruction of defect stripes is studied. In particular, the effect of a local pinning of the defects at the sites of…
The effects of line-tying on resistive tearing instability in slab geometry is studied within the framework of reduced magnetohydrodynamics (RMHD).\citep{KadomtsevP1974,Strauss1976} It is found that line-tying has a stabilizing effect. The…
Extensive photoionization model grids are computed for single star HII regions using stellar atmosphere models from the WM-basic code. Mid-IR emission line intensities are predicted and diagnostic diagrams of [NeIII]/[NeII] and [SIV]/[SIII]…
(Abridged) We analyse the stability and evolution of power-law accretion disc models. These have midplane densities that follow radial power-laws, and have either temperature or entropy distributions that are power-law functions of…
We investigate the impact of the oxidizing character of the nitric medium on the evolution of the intergranular corrosion of a stainless steel. In two different oxidizing conditions ("severe" and "soft"), the corroded surface of the steel…
Young protoplanetary discs are expected to be gravitationally unstable, which can drive angular momentum transport as well as be a potential mechanism for planet formation. Gravitational instability is most prevalent in the outer disc where…
We present a theoretical study of the effects and signatures of realistic velocity field and atmospheric inhomogeneities associated with convective motions at the surface of cool late-type stars on the emergent profiles of iron spectral…
