Astrophysics of magnetically collimated jets generated from laser-produced plasmas
A. Ciardi, T. Vinci, J. Fuchs +4
The generation of astrophysically relevant jets, from magnetically collimated, laser-produced plasmas, is investigated through three-dimensional, magneto-hydrodynamic simulations.…
Comparing Poynting flux dominated magnetic tower jets with kinetic-energy dominated jets
Martín Huarte-Espinosa, Adam Frank, Eric G. Blackman +4
Magnetic Towers represent one of two fundamental forms of MHD outflows. Driven by magnetic pressure gradients, these flows have been less well studied than magneto-centrifugally la…
On the structure and stability of magnetic tower jets
Martín Huarte-Espinosa, Adam Frank, Eric G. Blackman +4
Modern theoretical models of astrophysical jets combine accretion, rotation, and magnetic fields to launch and collimate supersonic flows from a central source. Near the source, ma…
Protostellar disk formation and transport of angular momentum during magnetized core collapse
Marc Joos, Patrick Hennebelle, Andrea Ciardi
Theoretical studies of collapsing clouds have found that even a relatively weak magnetic field (B) may prevent the formation of disks and their fragmentation. However, most previou…
