In this work we consider a new class of oscillatory instabilities that pertain to thermocapillary destabilization of a liquid film heated by a solid substrate. We assume the substrate thickness and substrate-film thermal conductivity ratio…
The stratified inclined duct (SID) sustains an exchange flow in a long, gently sloping duct as a model for continuously-forced density-stratified flows such as those found in estuaries. Experiments have shown that the emergence of…
The streaming instability (SI) is a leading mechanism for concentrating solid particles into regions dense enough to form planetesimals. Its efficiency in clumping particles depends primarily on the dimensionless stopping time ($\tau_s$, a…
We present a model for the dynamics of fluid vesicles in linear flow which consistently includes thermal fluctuations and nonlinear coupling between different modes. At the transition between tank-treading and tumbling, we predict a…
Time-accurate simulation of gas dynamic structures resulting in viscous, heat conducting and radiating gas flows through localized heat release areas is performed. Cases of intensive heat release in to air at atmospheric pressure are…
Precipitation of cold gas due to thermal instability in both galaxy clusters and the circumgalactic medium may regulate AGN feedback. We investigate thermal instability in idealized simulations of the circumgalactic medium with a parameter…
Exact solutions of a magnetized plasma in a vorticity containing shear flow for constant temperature are presented. This is followed by the modification of these solutions by thermomagnetic currents in the presence of temperature gradients.…
A nonresonant cosmic-ray-current-driven instability may operate in the shock precursors of young supernova remnants and be responsible for magnetic-field amplification, plasma heating and turbulence. Earlier simulations demonstrated…
Stellar-driven galactic winds regulate the mass and energy content of star-forming galaxies. Emission- and absorption-line spectroscopy shows that these outflows are multiphase and comprised of dense gas clouds embedded in much hotter…
The heat engine model of tropical cyclones describes a thermally direct overturning circulation. Outflowing air slowly subsides as radiative cooling to space balances adiabatic warming, a process that does not consume any work. However, we…
Thermal instability (TI) can strongly affect the structure and dynamics of the interstellar medium (ISM) in the Milky Way and other disk galaxies. Thermal conduction plays an important role in the TI by stabilizing small scales and limiting…
Context: The streaming instability (SI) is a leading candidate for reaching solid densities sufficient to trigger the gravitational collapse needed for the formation of planetesimals. However, dust growth barriers appear to impede the…
Our view of the central regions of AGN has been enriched by the discovery of fast and massive outflows of HI and molecular gas. Here we present a brief summary of results obtained for young (and restarted) radio AGN. We find that HI…
Thermal instability plays a crucial role in the dynamics of astrophysical plasmas. Building upon the foundational work of G. B. Field (1965) and the subsequent analysis by T. Waters & D. Proga (2019), this study revisits thermal instability…
The scope of the present paper is to determine how ion electrostatic wave perturbations in plasma flows are influenced by the presence of a kinematically complex velocity shear. For this purpose we consider a model based on the following…
We study particle acceleration in strongly turbulent pair plasmas using novel 3D Particle-in-Cell simulations, featuring particle injection from an external heat bath and diffusive escape. We demonstrate the formation of steady-state,…
Determining the origin of turbulence in galaxy clusters, and quantifying its transport of heat, is an outstanding problem, with implications for our understanding of their thermodynamic history and structure. As the dilute plasma of the…
Relaxations of localized over-density in a plane transverse to the magnetic field are numericallyinvestigated under the effect of drift-wave and interchange drives in SOL conditions. Such a controlleddeparture from thermodynamic equilibrium…
The turbulence statistics of the intermittent region in a supersonic turbulent boundary layer are studied by direct numerical simulation. Recently, Kwon et al. (2016) have shown that this intermittent behavior, consisting of the coexistence…
The annihilation of TeV photons from extragalactic TeV sources and the extragalactic background light produces ultrarelativistic $e^{\pm}$ beams, which are subject to powerful plasma instabilities that sap their kinetic energy. Here we…
