We have used the AMR hydrodynamic code, MG, to perform idealised 3D MHD simulations of the formation of clumpy and filamentary structure in a thermally unstable medium without turbulence. A stationary thermally unstable spherical diffuse…
We report observations of slowly drifting pulsating structures (DPS) in the 0.8-4.5 GHz frequency range of the RT4 and RT5 radio spectrographs at Ondrejov observatory, between 2002 and 2012. We found 106 events of drifting pulsating…
Forced magnetic reconnection is triggered by external perturbations, which are ubiquitous in the solar corona. This process plays a crucial role in the energy release during solar transient events, which are often associated with electric…
In low-density plasma environments, such as the intracluster medium (ICM), the Larmour frequency is much larger than the ion-ion collision frequency. In such a case, the thermal pressure becomes anisotropic with respect to the magnetic…
To understand the formation mechanism of large plumes in solar prominences, we investigate the formation process of two such phenomena. We studied the dynamic and thermal properties of two large plumes using observations from New Vacuum…
In this paper we propose a new mechanism describing the initial spike of giant flares in the framework of the starquake model. We investigate the evolution of a plasma on a closed magnetic flux tube in the magnetosphere of a magnetar in the…
Plasmoid-mediated reconnection is investigated for nonlinear Peeling-Ballooning Edge-Localized Modes (P-B ELMs). The formation of current sheets and the transition to 3-D current sheet instability is demonstrated through fully nonlinear…
The role of turbulence in current generation and self-excitation of magnetic fields has been studied in the geometry of a mechanically driven, spherical dynamo experiment, using a three dimensional numerical computation. A simple impeller…
Formation of surface plasmon modes in sodium nanoclusters containing 20-300 atoms was studied using the GW method. It is shown that in the small Na nanoparticles up to 2 nm in size, the loss function $Im[\epsilon^{-1}]$ is dominated by a…
Fast-mode magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves in the solar corona are often known to be produced by solar flares and eruptive prominences. We here simulate the effect of the interaction of an external perturbation on a magnetic null in the…
The recent observations of Singh et al. (2012) have shown multiple plasma ejections and the intermittent nature of magnetic reconnection in the solar chromosphere, highlighting the need for fast reconnection to occur in highly collisional…
We develop a model and numerical method to study the large-amplitude flutter of rectangular membranes (of zero bending rigidity) that shed a trailing vortex-sheet wake in a three-dimensional (3D) inviscid fluid flow. We apply small initial…
The nonlinear dynamo effect of tearing modes is derived with the resistive MHD equations. The dynamo effect is divided into two parts, parallel and perpendicular to the magnetic field. Firstly, the force-free plasma is considered. It is…
Azimuthal flow is driven in the edge of the Large Plasma Device (LAPD) [W. Gekelman, {\itshape et. al}, Rev. Sci. Instr. {\bfseries 62}, 2875 (1991)] through biasing a section of the vacuum vessel relative to the plasma source cathode. As…
The results of a numerical study of the magnetic dynamo effect in cylindrical von K\'arm\'an plasma flow are presented with parameters relevant to the Madison Plasma Couette Experiment. This experiment is designed to investigate a broad…
Ions, protons and possibly a small flux of electrons and positrons are accelerated outward from the polar cap of a normal or millisecond pulsar whose rotational spin is antiparallel with its magnetic moment. The Langmuir modes of this…
Supersonic turbulence is a large reservoir of suprathermal energy in the interstellar medium. Its dissipation, because it is intermittent in space and time, can deeply modify the chemistry of the gas. We further explore a hybrid method to…
A new mechanism for pressure profile relaxations in an edge tokamak plasma is derived from simulations within the two-fluid three-dimensional turbulence code EMEDGE3D. The relaxation is due to diamagnetic coupling in the resistive…
The phenomenon of sediment pattern formation in a channel flow is numerically investigated by performing simulations which resolve all the relevant scales of the problem. The numerical approach employed and the flow configuration considered…
Fast magnetic reconnection plays a fundamental role in driving explosive dynamics and heating in the solar chromosphere. The reconnection time scale of traditional models is shortened at the onset of the coalescence instability, which forms…
