Prospects for observing the magnetorotational instability in the Plasma Couette Experiment

K. Flanagan, M. Clark, C. Collins +4

Many astrophysical disks, such as protoplanetary disks, are in a regime where non-ideal, plasma-specific magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) effects can significantly influence the behavior…

Fast dynamos in spherical boundary-driven flows

I. V. Khalzov, C. M. Cooper, C. B. Forest

We numerically demonstrate the feasibility of kinematic fast dynamos for a class of time-periodic axisymmetric flows of conducting fluid confined inside a sphere. The novelty of ou…

Optimized boundary driven flows for dynamos in a sphere

I. V. Khalzov, B. P. Brown, C. M. Cooper +2

We perform numerical optimization of the axisymmetric flows in a sphere to minimize the critical magnetic Reynolds number Rm_cr required for dynamo onset. The optimization is done…

Magnetorotational instability in electrically driven fluids

I. V. Khalzov, A. I. Smolyakov, V. I. Ilgisonis

The linear stability of electrically driven flow of liquid metal in circular channel in the presence of vertical magnetic field is studied. It is shown that the instability thresho…
