Minimum Dissipative Relaxed States Applied to Laboratory and Space Plasmas
Dastgeer Shaikh, B. Dasgupta, Q. Hu +1
The usual theory of plasma relaxation, based on the selective decay of magnetic energy over the (global) magnetic helicity, predicts a force-free state for a plasma. Such a force-f…

Solar arcades as possible minimum dissipative relaxed states
R. Bhattacharya, M. S. Janaki, B. Dasgupta +1
In our work, we have proposed the arcade structures as minimum dissipative relaxed states (including both the viscous and resistive channels) pertaining to a two-fluid description…
