Growth or Decay -- I: universality of the turbulent dynamo saturation

James R. Beattie, Christoph Federrath, Neco Kriel +2

The turbulent small-scale dynamo (SSD) is likely to be responsible for the magnetisation of the interstellar medium (ISM) that we observe in the Universe today. The SSD efficiently…

The role of the turbulence driving mode for the Initial Mass Function

Sajay Sunny Mathew, Christoph Federrath, Amit Seta

Turbulence is a critical ingredient for star formation, yet its role for the initial mass function (IMF) is not fully understood. Here we perform magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) simula…

Rotation measure structure functions with higher-order stencils as a probe of small-scale magnetic fluctuations and its application to the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds

Amit Seta, Christoph Federrath, Jack D. Livingston +1

Magnetic fields and turbulence are important components of the interstellar medium (ISM) of star-forming galaxies. It is challenging to measure the properties of the small-scale IS…

Turbulent diffusion of streaming cosmic rays in compressible, partially ionised plasma

Matt L. Sampson, James R. Beattie, Mark R. Krumholz +3

Cosmic rays (CRs) are a dynamically important component of the interstellar medium (ISM) of galaxies. The GeV CRs that carry most CR energy and pressure are likely confined b…

Fundamental scales in the kinematic phase of the turbulent dynamo

Neco Kriel, James R. Beattie, Amit Seta +1

The turbulent dynamo is a powerful mechanism that converts turbulent kinetic energy to magnetic energy. A key question regarding the magnetic field amplification by turbulence, is,…

Energy balance and Alfvén Mach numbers in compressible magnetohydrodynamic turbulence with a large-scale magnetic field

James R. Beattie, Mark R. Krumholz, Raphael Skalidis +5

Energy equipartition is a powerful theoretical tool for understanding astrophysical plasmas. It is invoked, for example, to measure magnetic fields in the interstellar medium (ISM)…

Turbulent dynamo in the two-phase interstellar medium

Amit Seta, Christoph Federrath

Magnetic fields are a dynamically important component of the turbulent interstellar medium (ISM) of star-forming galaxies. These magnetic fields are due to a dynamo action, which i…
