Three-dimensional Simulation of Magnetized Cloud Fragmentation Induced by Nonlinear Flows and Ambipolar Diffusion
Takahiro Kudoh, Shantanu Basu
We demonstrate that the formation of collapsing cores in subcritical clouds is accelerated by nonlinear flows, by performing three-dimensional non-ideal MHD simulations. An initial…
How was the mushroom-shaped GW 123.4--1.5 formed in the Galactic disk?
Chang Hyun Baek, Takahiro Kudoh, Kohji Tomisaka
The unusual mushroom-shaped HI cloud, GW 123.4--1.5, is hundreds of parsecs in size but does not show any correlations to HI shells or chimney structures. To investigate the origin…
Three-dimensional simulations of molecular cloud fragmentation regulated by magnetic fields and ambipolar diffusion
Takahiro Kudoh, Shantanu Basu, Youichi Ogata +1
We employ the first fully three-dimensional simulation to study the role of magnetic fields and ion-neutral friction in regulating gravitationally-driven fragmentation of molecular…
The Origin of Ripples in Cool Cores of Galaxy Clusters: Heating by MHD Waves?
Yutaka Fujita, Takeru K. Suzuki, Takahiro Kudoh +1
We consider MHD waves as a heating source of cool cores of galaxy clusters. In particular, we focus on transverse waves (Alfven waves), because they can propagate a longer distance…
Nonlinear Hydromagnetic Wave Support of a Stratified Molecular Cloud II: A Parameter Study
Takahiro Kudoh, Shantanu Basu
We use numerical simulations to study the effect of nonlinear MHD waves in a stratified, self-gravitating molecular cloud that is bounded by a hot and tenuous external medium. In a…
The Acceleration Mechanism of Resistive MHD Jets Launched from Accretion Disks
T. Kuwabara, K. Shibata, T. Kudoh +1
We analyzed the results of non-linear resistive magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) simulations of jet formation to study the acceleration mechanism of axisymmetric, resistive MHD jets. Th…
