Cosmic-ray driven dynamo in galactic disks
M. Hanasz, K. Otmianowska-Mazur, H. Lesch +6
We present new developments on the Cosmic--Ray driven, galactic dynamo, modeled by means of direct, resistive CR--MHD simulations, performed with ZEUS and PIERNIK codes. The dynamo…
Model of Reconnection of Weakly Stochastic Magnetic Field and its Testing
A. Lazarian, E. Vishniac, G. Kowal
Astrophysical fluids are generically turbulent, which means that frozen-in magnetic fields are, at least, weakly stochastic. Therefore realistic studies of astrophysical magnetic r…
Studying ISM magnetic fields and turbulent regimes from polarimetric maps
D. Falceta-Goncalves, A. Lazarian, G. Kowal
Polarimeric maps have been used on the characterization of the magnetic field in molecular clouds. However, it is difficult to determine the 3-dimensional properties of these regio…
Numerical Studies of Weakly Stochastic Magnetic Reconnection
G. Kowal, A. Lazarian, E. T. Vishniac +1
We study the effects of turbulence on magnetic reconnection using three-dimensional numerical simulations. This is the first attempt to test a model of fast magnetic reconnection p…
Studies of regular and random magnetic fields in the ISM: statistics of polarization vectors and the Chandrasekhar-Fermi technique
D. Falceta-Goncalves, A. Lazarian, G. Kowal
Polarimetry is extensively used as a tool to trace the interstellar magnetic field projected on the plane of sky. Moreover, it is also possible to estimate the magnetic field inten…
