MHD Turbulence: Properties of Alfven, Slow and Fast Modes
A. Lazarian, A. Beresnyak
We summarise basic properties of MHD turbulence. First, MHD turbulence is not so messy as it is believed. In fact, the notion of strong non-linear coupling of compressible and inco…
Turbulence Statistics from Spectral Line Observations
A. Lazarian
Turbulence is a crucial component of dynamics of astrophysical fluids dynamics, including those of ISM, clusters of galaxies and circumstellar regions. Doppler shifted spectral lin…
Optical polarization from aligned atoms as a new diagnostic of Astrophysical magnetic fields
Huirong Yan, A. Lazarian
Population of levels of the hyperfine and fine split ground state of an atom is affected by radiative transitions induced by anisotropic radiation flux. Such aligned atoms precess…
Velocity centroids as tracers of the turbulent velocity statistics
A. Esquivel, A. Lazarian
We use the results of magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations to emulate spectroscopic observations and use maps of centroids to study their statistics. In order to assess under whic…
