We study the effects of Kelvin-Helmholtz instability (KHI) on the cold streams that feed high-redshift galaxies through their hot haloes, generalizing our earlier analyses of a 2D slab to a 3D cylinder, but still limiting our analysis to…

Kelvin-Helmholtz Instabilities (KHI) along contact discontinuities in galaxy clusters have been used to constrain the strength of magnetic fields in galaxy clusters, following the assumption that, as magnetic field lines drape around the…

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves are ubiquitously observed in the solar atmosphere. Kink waves are a type of transverse MHD waves in magnetic flux tubes that are damped due to resonant absorption. The theoretical study of kink MHD waves in…

Using a full kinetic, implicit particle-in-cell code, iPiC3D, we studied the properties of plasma kinetic turbulence, such as would be found at the interface between the solar wind and the Earth magnetosphere at low latitude during…

The shear-flow-driven instability can play an important role in energy transfer processes in coronal plasma. We present for the first time the observation of a kink-like oscillation of a streamer probably caused by the streaming kinkmode…

We investigate the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability occuring at the interface of a shear flow configuration in 2D compressible magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). The linear growth and the subsequent non-linear saturation of the instability are studied…

The Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability (KHI) has been observed in the solar atmosphere. Ion-neutral collisions may play a relevant role for the growth rate and evolution of the KHI in solar partially ionized plasmas as in, e.g., solar…

In this paper, the coupled Rayleigh-Taylor-Kelvin-Helmholtz instability(RTI, KHI and RTKHI, respectively) system is investigated using a multiple-relaxation-time discrete Boltzmann model. Both the morphological boundary length and…

A numerical study of the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in compressible magnetohydrodynamics is presented. The three-dimensional simulations consider shear flow in a cylindrical jet configuration, embedded in a uniform magnetic field directed…

In rotating 3He superfluids the Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) instability of the AB interface has been found to follow the theoretical model above 0.4 Tc. A deviation from this dependence has been assumed possible at the lowest temperatures. Our…

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) kink waves are ubiquitously observed in the solar atmosphere. The propagation and damping of these waves may play relevant roles for the transport and dissipation of energy in the solar atmospheric medium. However,…

We represent the outermost shear interface of an eddy by a circular vortex sheet in two dimensions, and provide a new proof of linear instability via the Birkhoff-Rott equation. Like planar vortex sheets, circular sheets are found to be…

The Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) instability is commonly found in many astrophysical, laboratory, and space plasmas. It could mix plasma components of different properties and convert dynamic fluid energy from large scale structure to smaller…

The modelling of astrophysical systems such as binary neutron star mergers or the formation of magnetars from the collapse of massive stars involves the numerical evolution of magnetised fluids at extremely large Reynolds numbers. This is a…

Magnetic twist is thought to play an important role in coronal loops. The effects of magnetic twist on stable magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves is poorly understood because they are seldom studied for relevant cases. The goal of this work is…

The non-linear hydrodynamic stability of thin, compressible, Keplerian disks is studied on the large two-dimensional compressible scale, using a high-order accuracy spectral method. We show that purely hydrodynamic perturbations, while…

We present two-dimensional (2D) particle-in-cell simulations of a magnetized, collisionless, relativistic pair plasma subjected to combined velocity and magnetic-field shear, a scenario typical at intermittent structures in plasma…

Over the last few years it became clear that turbulent magnetic reconnection and magnetized turbulence are inseparable. It was not only shown that reconnection is responsible for violating the frozen-in condition in turbulence, but also…

The generalized Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) and Miles mechanisms of the water wave generation by wind are investigated for two-layer piece-wise linear model of the wind profile. It is shown by asymptotic expansions in small air-to-water density…

We extend the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability to an expanding background. We study the evolution of a non-viscous irrotational fluid and find that for wavelengths much smaller than the Hubble scale small perturbations of the fluid are unstable…
