Helical magnetorotational instability in a Taylor-Couette flow with strongly reduced Ekman pumping
Frank Stefani, Gunter Gerbeth, Thomas Gundrum +4
The magnetorotational instability (MRI) is thought to play a key role in the formation of stars and black holes by sustaining the turbulence in hydrodynamically stable Keplerian ac…
Liquid metal experiments on the helical magnetorotational instability
Frank Stefani, Gunter Gerbeth, Thomas Gundrum +3
The magnetorotational instability (MRI) plays an essential role in the formation of stars and black holes. By destabilizing hydrodynamically stable Keplerian flows, the MRI trigger…
The Ekman-Hartmann layer in MHD Taylor-Couette flow
Jacek Szklarski, Günther Rüdiger
We study magnetic effects induced by rigidly rotating plates enclosing a cylindrical MHD Taylor-Couette flow at the finite aspect ratio . The fluid confined between the cyl…
Reduction of boundary effects in spiral MRI experiment PROMISE
J. Szklarski
Magnetorotational instability (MRI) is one of the most important and most common instabilities in astrophysics, it is widely accepted that it serves as a source of turbulent viscos…
Experiments on the magnetorotational instability in helical magnetic fields
Frank Stefani, Thomas Gundrum, Gunter Gerbeth +3
The magnetorotational instability (MRI) plays a key role in the formation of stars and black holes, by enabling outward angular momentum transport in accretion disks. The use of co…
Nonlinear simulations of magnetic Taylor-Couette flow with current-free helical magnetic fields
Jacek Szklarski, Günther Rüdiger
The magnetorotational instability (MRI) in cylindrical Taylor-Couette flow with external helical magnetic field is simulated for infinite and finite aspect ratios. We solve the MHD…
