Measurement of the Electric Current in a Kpc-Scale Jet

Philipp P. Kronberg, Richard V. E. Lovelace, Giovanni Lapenta +1

We present radio emission, polarization, and Faraday rotation maps of the radio jet of the galaxy 3C303. From this data we derive the magnetoplasma and electrodynamic parameters of…

High Magnetic Shear Gain in a Liquid Sodium Stable Couette Flow Experiment; A Prelude to an alpha-Omega Dynamo

Stirling A. Colgate, Hui Li, Vladimir Pariev +15

The -phase of the liquid sodium - dynamo experiment at NMIMT in cooperation with LANL has successfully demonstrated the production of a high toroidal field, $B_ϕ \simeq 8\…

The Need for Plasma Astrophysics in Understanding Life Cycles of Active Galaxies

H. Li, J. Arons, P. Bellan +8

In this White Paper, we emphasize the need for and the important role of plasma astrophysics in the studies of formation, evolution of, and feedback by Active Galaxies. We make thr…

A Magnetic Alpha-Omega Dynamo in Active Galactic Nuclei Disks: II. Magnetic Field Generation, Theories and Simulations

Vladimir I. Pariev, Stirling A. Colgate, John M. Finn

It is shown that a dynamo can operate in an Active Galactic Nuclei accretion disk due to the Keplerian shear and due to the helical motions of expanding and twisting plumes of plas…

A Magnetic Alpha-Omega Dynamo in Active Galactic Nuclei Disks: I. The Hydrodynamics of Star-Disk Collisions and Keplerian Flow

Vladimir I. Pariev, Stirling A. Colgate

A magnetic field dynamo in the inner regions of the accretion disk surrounding the supermassive black holes in AGNs may be the mechanism for the generation of magnetic fields in ga…

Modeling the Large Scale Structures of Astrophysical Jets in the Magnetically Dominated Limit

Hui Li

We suggest a new approach that could be used for modeling both the large scale behavior of astrophysical jets and the magnetically dominated explosions in astrophysics. We describe…
