High-resolution radio imaging of two luminous quasars beyond redshift 4.5

S. Frey, O. Titov, A. E. Melnikov +2

Context. Radio-loud active galactic nuclei in the early Universe are rare. The quasars J0906+6930 at redshift z=5.47 and J2102+6015 at z=4.57 stand out from the known sample with t…

Feathering Instability of Spiral Arms. I: Formulation of the Problem

Wing-Kit Lee, Frank H. Shu

In this paper we study the feathering substructures along spiral arms by considering the perturbational gas response to a spiral shock. Feathers are density fluctuations that jut o…

Magnetic Interactions in Pre-Main-Sequence Binaries

Fred C. Adams, Michael J. Cai, Daniele Galli +2

Young stars typically have strong magnetic fields, so that the magnetospheres of newly formed close binaries can interact, dissipate energy, and produce synchrotron radiation. The…

Magnetocentrifugally Driven Flows from Young Stars and Disks. VI. Accretion with a Multipole Stellar Field

Subhanjoy Mohanty, Frank H. Shu

Previous analyses of magnetospheric accretion and outflow in classical T Tauri stars (CTTSs), within the context of both the X-wind model and other theoretical scenarios, have assu…

The Challenge of Sub-Keplerian Rotation for Disk Winds

Frank H. Shu, Susana Lizano, Daniele Galli +2

Strong magnetization makes the disks surrounding young stellar objects rotate at rates that are too sub-Keplerian to enable the thermal launching of disk winds from their surfaces…

X-winds in Action

Mike J. Cai, Hsien Shang, Hsiao-Hsuan Lin +1

The interaction of accretion disks with the magnetospheres of young stars can produce X-winds and funnel flows. With the assumption of axial symmetry and steady state flow, the pro…
