Magnetic reconnection in the partially ionized solar chromosphere is studied in 2.5-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic simulations including radiative cooling and ambipolar diffusion. A Harris current sheet with and without a guide field is…
We study the effects of turbulence on magnetic reconnection using 3D numerical simulations. This is the first attempt to test a model of fast magnetic reconnection in the presence of weak turbulence proposed by Lazarian & Vishniac (1999).…
We study the dynamics of torque driven spherical spinners settled on a surface, and demonstrate that hydrodynamic interactions at finite Reynolds numbers can lead to a concentration dependent and non-uniform crystallisation. At semi-dilute…
The work deals with two major topics concerning the numerical analysis of Runge-Kutta-like (RK-like) methods, namely their stability and order of convergence. RK-like methods differ from additive RK methods in that their coefficients are…
The r-modes of neutron stars can be driven unstable by gravitational radiation. While linear perturbation theory predicts the existence of this instability, linear theory can't provide any information about the nonlinear development of the…
We consider evolution of an unstable acoustic mode interacting with an ensemble of stable g-modes. We show that the static multimode solution does not exist. We then find the condition for the stability of the statistical equilibrium.…
Oscillation modes in fast-rotating stars can be split into several subclasses, each with their own properties. To date, seismology of these stars cannot rely on regular pattern analysis and scaling relations. However, recently there has…
We consider both mode calculations and time evolutions of axial r-modes for relativistic uniformly rotating non-barotropic neutron stars, using the slow-rotation formalism, in which rotational corrections are considered up to linear order…
We study the effectiveness of the time-localised principal resolvent forcing mode at actuating the near wall cycle of turbulence. The mode is restricted to a wavelet pulse and computed from an SVD of the windowed wavelet-based resolvent…
We study magnetic reconnection events in a turbulent plasma within the two-fluid theory. By identifying the diffusive regions, we measure the reconnection rates as function of the conductivity and current sheet thickness. We have found that…
Magnetic field embedded in a perfectly conducting fluid preserves its topology for all time. Although ionized astrophysical objects, like stars and galactic disks, are almost perfectly conducting, they show indications of changes in…
We examine the existence of nonlinear modes and their temporal dynamics, in arrays of split-ring resonators, using a fractional extension of the Laplacian in the evolution equation. We find a closed-form expression for the dispersion…
We study the transmission through different small systems as a function of the coupling strength $v$ to the two attached leads. The leads are identical with only one propagating mode $\xi^E_C$ in each of them. Besides the conductance $G$,…
Magnetic reconnection, especially in the relativistic regime, provides an efficient mechanism for accelerating relativistic particles and thus offers an attractive physical explanation for nonthermal high-energy emission from various…
Magnetic reconnection (MR) is considered as a major source of particle energization in astrophysical plasma. In the past, analysis of MR often assumes the magnetostatic condition, i.e. $\partial_t = 0$. We show that under the…
At this time there does not exist a robust set of rules connecting low and high $\beta$ waves across the $\beta \approx 1$ layer. The work here contributes specifically to what happens when a low $\beta$ fast wave crosses the $\beta \approx…
We consider $u(x,t)$, a solution of $\partial_tu = \Delta u + |u|^{p-1}u$ which blows up at some time $T > 0$, where $u:\mathbb{R}^N \times[0,T) \to \mathbb{R}$, $p > 1$ and $(N-2)p < N+2$. Define $S \subset \mathbb{R}^N$ to be the blow-up…
We investigate the effect of surface tension on the linear Rayleigh--Taylor (RT) instability in stratified incompressible viscous fluids with or without (interface) surface tension. The existence of linear RT instability solutions with…
In order to understand the nature of magnetic reconnection in ``free space'' which is free from any influence of external circumstances, I have studied the structure of spontaneous reconnection outflow using a shock tube approximation. The…
A catastrophe model for the onset of fast magnetic reconnection is presented that suggests why plasma systems with magnetic free energy remain apparently stable for long times and then suddenly release their energy. For a given set of…
