The nonlinear dynamics of a bundle of magnetic flux ropes driven by stationary fluid motions at their endpoints is studied, by performing numerical simulations of the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations. The development of MHD turbulence is…
Cold ($T\sim 10^{4} \ \mathrm{K}$) gas is very commonly found in both galactic and cluster halos. There is no clear consensus on its origin. Such gas could be uplifted from the central galaxy by galactic or AGN winds. Alternatively, it…
Both multiphase gas and magnetic fields are ubiquitous in astrophysics. However, the influence of magnetic fields on mixing of the different phases is still largely unexplored. In this study, we use both turbulent radiative mixing layer…
In this letter we compute energy transfer rates from velocity field to magnetic field in MHD turbulence using field-theoretic method. The striking result of our field theoretic calculation is that there is a large energy transfer rate from…
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…
The exact solutions for MHD shock waves in an ideal gas are obtained taking into consideration only the viscosity of the gas. In view of an axial magnetic field, the analytical expressions for the particle velocity, temperature, pressure…
We perform a suite of two- and three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations with the Athena code of the non-driven Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in the subsonic, weak magnetic field limit. Focusing the analysis on the non-linear…
A review of some of the issues that have arisen over the years concerning the energy distribution among scales for magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) turbulence is given here. A variety of tools are employed to that effect, and a central role is…
The energy spectrum and the nolinear cascade rates of MHD turbulence is not clearly understood. We have addressed this problem using direct numerical simulation and analytical calculations. Our numerical simulations indicate that…
The theory of passive scalar transport in two dimensional turbulent fluids is generalized to the case of 2D MHD. Invariance of the cross correlation of scalar concentration and magnetic potential produces a novel contribution to the…
Turbulence and magnetic fields are components of the interstellar medium and are interconnected through plasma processes. In particular, the magnetic flux transport in the presence of magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence is an essential…
Compressibility effects in a turbulent transport of temperature field are investigated applying the quasi-linear approach for small P\'eclet numbers and the spectral $\tau$ approach for large P\'eclet numbers. Compressibility of a fluid…
We investigate the saturation level of hydromagnetic turbulence driven by the magnetorotational instability in the case of vanishing net flux. Motivated by a recent paper of Bodo, Cattaneo, Mignone, & Rossi, we here focus on the case of a…
A physically consistent approach is considered for defining an external magnetic field as needed in computational fluid dynamics problems involving magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). The approach results in simple analytical formulae that can be…
This study investigates the effect of compliant walls on the turbulent heat transfer in channel flows over viscous-hyperelastic walls. We perform Direct Numerical Simulations, fully resolving the mutual fluid-structure interactions between…
Recent advances in understanding of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence call for revisions in the picture of particle acceleration. We make use of the recently established scaling of slow and fast MHD modes in strong and weak MHD…
Much of the progress in our understanding of dynamo mechanisms has been made within the theoretical framework of magnetohydrodynamics (MHD). However, for sufficiently diffuse media, the Hall effect eventually becomes non-negligible. We…
The present paper studies the effects of thermal radiation and mass diffusion on MHD flow over a vertical plate that applies time dependent shear to the fluid. This study is meant to provide framework for improved thermal system where…
A variety of studies of magnetised plasma turbulence invoke theories for the advection of a passive scalar by turbulent fluctuations. Examples include modelling the electron density fluctuations in the interstellar medium, understanding the…
Two-dimensional magnetohydrodynamics (2D MHD), forced at (a) large length scales or (b) small length scales, displays turbulent, but statistically steady, states with widely different statistical properties. We present a systematic,…
