Evidence for Growth of Eccentricity and Mass Clearing in a Disc Interior to a Planet

Richard G. Edgar, Eric Blackman, Alice Quillen +2

We present computational results showing eccentricity growth in the inner portions of a protoplanetary disc. We attribute this to the evolving surface density of the disc. The plan…

Magnetic Fields in Stellar Jets

P. Hartigan, A. Frank, P. Varniere +1

Although several lines of evidence suggest that jets from young stars are driven magnetically from accretion disks, existing observations of field strengths in the bow shocks of th…

Accretion-Ejection Instability, MHD Rossby Wave Instability, diskoseismology, and the high-frequency QPO of microquasars

Michel Tagger, Peggy Varniere

We present a possible explanation for the high-frequency Quasi-Periodic Oscillations of microquasars by an MHD instability that combines the physics developed, in different context…
