One-winged butterflies: mode selection for azimuthal magnetorotational instability by thermal convection

A. Mishra, G. Mamatsashvili, M. Seilmayer +1

The effects of thermal convection on turbulence in accretion discs, and particularly its interplay with the magnetorotational instability (MRI), are of significant astrophysical in…

Phase coherence and phase jumps in the Schwabe cycle

F. Stefani, J. Beer, A. Giesecke +4

Guided by the working hypothesis that the Schwabe cycle of solar activity is synchronized by the 11.07 years alignment cycle of the tidally dominant planets Venus, Earth and Jupite…

Experimental evidence for non-axisymmetric magnetorotational instability in a rotating liquid metal exposed to an azimuthal magnetic field

Martin Seilmayer, Vladimir Galindo, Gunter Gerbeth +6

The azimuthal version of the magnetorotational instability (MRI) is a non-axisymmetric instability of a hydrodynamically stable differentially rotating flow under the influence of…

Critical fields and growth rates of the Tayler instability as probed by a columnar gallium experiment

Guenther Ruediger, Marcus Gellert, Manfred Schultz +5

Many astrophysical phenomena (such as the slow rotation of neutron stars or the rigid rotation of the solar core) can be explained by the action of the Tayler instability of toroid…

Experimental evidence for Tayler instability in a liquid metal column

Martin Seilmayer, Frank Stefani, Thomas Gundrum +4

In the current-driven, kink-type Tayler instability (TI) a sufficiently strong azimuthal magnetic field becomes unstable against non-axisymmetric perturbations. The TI has been dis…
