Long Term Evolution of Magnetized Bubbles in Galaxy Clusters
Wei Liu, Hui Li, Shengtai Li +1
We have performed nonlinear ideal magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the long term evolution of a magnetized low-density "bubble" plasma formed by a radio galaxy in a stratified cl…

Ideal magnetohydrodynamic simulation of magnetic bubble expansion as a model for extragalactic radio lobes
Wei Liu, Scott C. Hsu, Hui Li +2
Nonlinear ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations of the propagation and expansion of a magnetic "bubble" plasma into a lower density, weakly-magnetized background plasma are p…

Helical Magnetorotational Instability in Magnetized Taylor-Couette Flow
Wei Liu, Jeremy Goodman, Isom Herron +1
Hollerbach and Rudiger have reported a new type of magnetorotational instability (MRI) in magnetized Taylor-Couette flow in the presence of combined axial and azimuthal magnetic fi…
