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…
Stability of Magnetized Disks and Implications for Planet Formation
Susana Lizano, Daniele Galli, Mike J. Cai +1
This paper considers gravitational perturbations in geometrically thin disks with rotation curves dominated by a central object, but with substantial contributions from magnetic pr…
The Equilibrium Structure of Prolate Magnetized Molecular Cores
Michael J. Cai, Ronald E. Taam
The structure of molecular cloud cores supported by thermal pressure and a poloidal magnetic field is reinvestigated in the magnetohydrostatic and axisymmetric approximation. In ad…
Migration of Extrasolar Planets: Effects from X-Wind Accretion Disks
Fred C. Adams, Mike J. Cai, Susana Lizano
Magnetic fields are dragged in from the interstellar medium during the gravitational collapse that forms star/disk systems. Consideration of mean field magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) i…
Polarized Emission of Sagittarius A*
Lei Huang, Siming Liu, Zhi-Qiang Shen +4
We explore the parameter space of the two temperature pseudo-Newtonian Keplerian accretion flow model for the millimeter and shorter wavelength emission from Sagittarius A*. A gene…
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…
