Dissipative and nonaxisymmetric standard-MRI in Kepler disks
L. L. Kitchatinov, G. Ruediger
Deviations from axial symmetry are necessary to maintain self-sustained MRI-turbulence. We define the parameters region where nonaxisymmetric MRI is excited and study dependence of…
The kink-type instability of toroidal stellar magnetic fields with thermal diffusion
G. Ruediger, L. L. Kitchatinov
The stability of toroidal magnetic fields in rotating radiative stellar zones is studied for realistic values of both the Prandtl numbers. The two considered models for the magneti…
Stability of latitudinal differential rotation in stars
L. L. Kitchatinov, G. Rüdiger
The question is addressed whether stellar differentially rotating radiative zones (like the solar tachocline) excite nonaxisymmetric r-modes which can be observed. To this end the…
Magnetic pinch-type instability in stellar radiative zones
G. Ruediger, L. L. Kitchatinov, M. Gellert
The solar tachocline is shown as hydrodynamically stable against nonaxisymmetric disturbances if it is true that no cos^{4}θterm exists in its rotation law. We also show that the t…
