Stratorotational instability in MHD Taylor-Couette flows

G. Ruediger, D. A. Shalybkov

The stability of dissipative Taylor-Couette flows with an axial stable density stratification and a prescribed azimuthal magnetic field is considered. Global nonaxisymmetric soluti…

Theory of current instability experiments in magnetic Taylor-Couette flows

G. Ruediger, M. Schultz, D. Shalybkov +1

We consider the linear stability of dissipative MHD Taylor-Couette flow with imposed toroidal magnetic fields. The inner and outer cylinders can be either insulating or conducting;…

The stability of MHD Taylor-Couette flow with current-free spiral magnetic fields between conducting cylinders

G. Ruediger, R. Hollerbach, M. Schultz +1

We study the magnetorotational instability in cylindrical Taylor-Couette flow, with the (vertically unbounded) cylinders taken to be perfect conductors, and with externally imposed…

Stability of density-stratified viscous Taylor-Couette flows

D. Shalybkov, G. Ruediger

The stability of density-stratified viscous Taylor-Couette flows is considered using the Boussinesq approximation but without any use of the short-wave approximation. The flows whi…

The linear MHD Taylor-Couette instability for liquid sodium

G. Rüdiger, M. Schultz, D. Shalybkov

The linear stability of MHD Taylor-Couette flow of infinite vertical extension is considered for liquid sodium with its small magnetic Prandtl number Pm of order of 10^-5 and an un…

Hydrodynamic stability in accretion disks under the combined influence of shear and density stratification

G. Rüdiger, R. Arlt, D. Shalybkov

The hydrodynamic stability of accretion disks is considered. The particular question is whether the combined action of a (stable) vertical density stratification and a (stable) rad…
