Model of Reconnection of Weakly Stochastic Magnetic Field and its Testing
A. Lazarian, E. Vishniac, G. Kowal
Astrophysical fluids are generically turbulent, which means that frozen-in magnetic fields are, at least, weakly stochastic. Therefore realistic studies of astrophysical magnetic r…
Model of Reconnection of Weakly Stochastic Magnetic Field and its Implications
A. Lazarian, E. Vishniac
We discuss the model of magnetic field reconnection in the presence of turbulence introduced by us approximately ten years ago. The model does not require any plasma effects to be…
Numerical Studies of Weakly Stochastic Magnetic Reconnection
G. Kowal, A. Lazarian, E. T. Vishniac +1
We study the effects of turbulence on magnetic reconnection using three-dimensional numerical simulations. This is the first attempt to test a model of fast magnetic reconnection p…
Growth of Magnetic Fields Induced by Turbulent Motions
J. Cho, E. Vishniac, A. Beresnyak +2
We present numerical simulations of driven magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence with weak/moderate imposed magnetic fields. The main goal is to clarify dynamics of magnetic field g…
Glimm's Method for Relativistic Hydrodynamics
J. K. Cannizzo, N. Gehrels, E. T. Vishniac
We present the results of standard one-dimensional test problems in relativistic hydrodynamics using Glimm's (random choice) method, and compare them to results obtained using fini…
