Mixing-induced thermal instabilities and coronal condensations
B. Snow, A. Hillier
Cool, dense material is frequently observed to permeate the hot, tenuous solar corona in the form of prominences, spicules and coronal rain. Both the cool material and surrounding…
UK White Paper on Magnetic Reconnection
Alexander J. B. Russell, James A. McLaughlin, Philippa Browning +25
Magnetic reconnection powers explosive releases of magnetic energy, heating and particle acceleration throughout the plasma universe. Knowledge of this universal process is vital t…
Comparing the magnetic Rayleigh-Taylor instability dynamics in two- and three-dimensions
Manohar Teja Kalluri, Andrew Hillier
The magnetic Rayleigh-Taylor instability (MRTI) governs plasma mixing and transport in a wide range of astrophysical and laboratory systems. Owing to computational constraints, MRT…
Quantifying Reconnection and it's Dynamical Role in 2D Magnetic Rayleigh-Taylor Turbulence
Manohar Teja Kalluri, Andrew Hillier, Ben Snow
Magnetic Rayleigh-Taylor instability (MRTI) governs material transport and mixing in astrophysical and laboratory plasmas under the influence of gravity and magnetic fields. While…
Understanding coronal rain dynamics through a point-mass model
Andrew Hillier, Ramon Oliver, David Martínez-Gómez
Observations and simulations of coronal rain show that as cold and dense plasma falls through the corona it initially undergoes acceleration by gravity before the downward velocity…
Self-similarity and growth of non-linear magnetic Rayleigh-Taylor instability -- Role of the magnetic field strength
Manohar Teja Kalluri, Andrew Hillier
The non-linear regime of the magnetic Rayleigh-Taylor instability (MRTI) has been studied in the context of several laboratory and astrophysical systems. Yet, several fundamental a…
Stability of two-fluid partially-ionised slow-mode shock fronts
Ben Snow, Andrew Hillier
A magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) shock front can be unstable to the corrugation instability, which causes a perturbed shock front to become increasingly corrugated with time. An ideal M…
