It is often asserted or implicitly assumed, without justification, that the results of two-dimensional investigations of plasma turbulence are applicable to the three-dimensional plasma environments of interest. A projection method is…
We analyse the effects of the propagating Alfv\'en waves, arising due to non-zero mean magnetic fields, on the nonequilibrium steady states of three-dimensional (3d) homogeneous Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence. In particular, the…
We use the 3D fully kinetic simulation to study different turbulence modes and turbulence anisotropy of relativistic turbulence in magnetically dominated collisionless plasmas. We extend the method developed by Cho & Lazarian (2002) for…
We derive the dynamics of magnetohydrodynamic waves in two-fluid partially ionized plasmas and to compare the results with those obtained under single-fluid description. Two-fluid magnetohydrodynamic equations are used, where ion-electron…
We present high resolution numerical simulations of compressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence. We concentrate on studies of spectra and anisotropy of velocity and density. We describe a technique of separating different…
The inverse transfer of magnetic helicity is a fundamental process which may explain large scale magnetic structure formation and sustainement. Until very recently, direct numerical simulations (DNS) of the inverse transfer in…
We investigate properties of plasma turbulence from magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) to sub-ion scales by means of two-dimensional, high-resolution hybrid particle-in-cell simulations. We impose an initial ambient magnetic field, perpendicular to…
One of the most important predictions in magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) is that in the presence of a uniform magnetic field $\textbf{b}_{0}$ a transition from weak to strong wave turbulence should occur when going from large to small…
Shocks waves are a ubiquitous feature of many astrophysical plasma systems, and an important process for energy dissipation and transfer. The physics of these shock waves are frequently treated/modeled as a collisional, fluid MHD…
We discuss a few recent developments that are important for understanding of MHD turbulence. First, MHD turbulence is not so messy as it is usually believed. In fact, the notion of strong non-linear coupling of compressible and…
We study theoretically mode conversion and resonant overreflection of magnetohydrodynamic waves in an inhomogeneous plane-stratified plasma in the presence of a nonuniform shear flow, using precise numerical calculations of the reflection…
Complete asymptotic expansions are developed for slow, Alfv\'en and fast magnetohydrodynamic waves at the base of an isothermal three-dimensional (3D) plane stratified atmosphere. Together with existing convergent Frobenius series solutions…
Alfven wave is the single most important physical phenomenon of magneto-hydrodynamic turbulence and has far-reaching impact to almost all studies related to astrophysical magnetic field. Yet the restoration of the Alfven wave fluctuations…
Using a new numerical code we have carried out two-dimensional simulations of the nonlinear evolution of unstable sheared magnetohydrodynamic flows. We considered two cases: a strong magnetic field (Alfven Mach number, M_a = 2.5) and a weak…
Transit-time damping (TTD) is a process in which the magnetic mirror force -- induced by the parallel gradient of magnetic field strength -- interacts with resonant plasma particles in a time-varying magnetic field, leading to the…
It has been shown recently that magnetic twist and axisymmetric MHD modes are ubiquitous in the solar atmosphere and therefore, the study of resonant absorption for these modes have become a pressing issue as it can have important…
In magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence, the large-scale magnetic field sets a preferred local direction for the small-scale dynamics, altering the statistics of turbulence from the isotropic case. This happens even in the absence of a…
On the basis of simple principles we derive and investigate the equations of relativistic plasma magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) in an arbitrary gravitational field. An exact solution describing the motion of magnetoactive plasma against the…
Compressible turbulence, especially the magnetized version of it, traditionally has a bad reputation with researchers. However, recent progress in theoretical understanding of incompressible MHD as well as that in computational capabilities…
The purpose of this paper is to solve the inverse scattering problem of nonlinear Alfv\'en waves governed by the three dimensional ideal incompressible MHD system. Bridging together geometric methods and weighted energy estimates, we…
