Nonlinear Simulations of the Heat Flux Driven Buoyancy Instability and its Implications for Galaxy Clusters
Ian J. Parrish, Eliot Quataert
In low collisionality plasmas heat flows almost exclusively along magnetic field lines, and the condition for stability to convection is modified from the standard Schwarzschild cr…

Saturation of the Magnetothermal Instability in Three Dimensions
Ian J. Parrish, James M. Stone
In dilute astrophysical plasmas, thermal conduction is primarily along magnetic field lines, and therefore highly anisotropic. As a result, the usual convective stability criterion…
