Numerical simulations of the Princeton magneto-rotational instability experiment with conducting axial boundaries
Xing Wei, Hantao Ji, Jeremy Goodman +4
We investigate numerically the Princeton magneto-rotational instability (MRI) experiment and the effect of conducting axial boundaries or endcaps. MRI is identified and found to re…
Dynamo-driven plasmoid formation from a current-sheet instability
F. Ebrahimi
Axisymmetric current-carrying plasmoids are formed in the presence of nonaxisymmetric fluctuations during nonlinear three-dimensional resistive MHD simulations in a global toroidal…
Evolution of the magnetorotational instability on initially tangled magnetic fields
Pallavi Bhat, Fatima Ebrahimi, Eric G. Blackman +1
The initial magnetic field of previous magnetorotational instability (MRI) simulations has always included a significant system-scale component, even if stochastic. However, it is…
Large scale dynamo action precedes turbulence in shearing box simulations of the magnetorotational instability
Pallavi Bhat, Fatima Ebrahimi, Eric G. Blackman
We study the dynamo generation (exponential growth) of large scale (planar averaged) fields in unstratified shearing box simulations of the magnetorotational instability (MRI). In…
