Experimental investigation of the return flow instability in magnetic spherical Couette flow
Jude Ogbonna, Ferran Garcia, Thomas Gundrum +2
We conduct magnetic spherical Couette (MSC) flow experiments in the return flow instability regime with GaInSn as the working fluid, and the ratio of the inner to the outer sphere…

Convection-Caused Symmetry Breaking of Azimuthal Magnetorotational Instability in a Liquid Metal Taylor-Couette Flow
Martin Seilmayer, Jude Ogbonna, Frank Stefani
We report the results of a liquid metal Taylor-Couette experiment in the Rayleigh-stable regime under the influence of an azimuthal magnetic field. We observe that the resulting az…
