X-ray Halos of Early-Type Galaxies with AGN Feedback and Accretion from a Circumgalactic Medium: models and observations
Silvia Pellegrini, Luca Ciotti, Zhaoming Gan +2
The knowledge of the X-ray properties of the hot gas halos of early-type galaxies has significantly advanced in the past years, for large and homogeneously investigated samples. We…
Compressible Turbulence in the Near-Sun Solar Wind: Parker Solar Probe's First Eight Perihelia
Manuel Enrique Cuesta, Rohit Chhiber, Xiangrong Fu +10
Many questions remain about the compressibility of solar wind turbulence with respect to its origins and properties. Low plasma beta (ratio of thermal to magnetic pressure) environ…
On the Interpretation of the Scalings of Density Fluctuations from In-situ Solar Wind Observations: Insights from 3D Turbulence Simulations
Senbei Du, Hui Li, Zhaoming Gan +1
Solar wind turbulence is often perceived as weakly compressible and the density fluctuations remain poorly understood both theoretically and observationally. Compressible magnetohy…
Star formation inefficiency and Kennicutt-Schmidt laws in early-type galaxies
Brian Jiang, Luca Ciotti, Zhaoming Gan +1
Star formation in disk galaxies is observed to follow the empirical Kennicutt-Schmidt law, a power-law relationship between the surface density of gas () [$\textrm{M}_{\od…
Nature and Scalings of Density Fluctuations of Compressible MHD Turbulence with Applications to the Solar Wind
Xiangrong Fu, Hui Li, Zhaoming Gan +2
The solar wind is a magnetized and turbulent plasma. Its turbulence is often dominated by Alfvénic fluctuations and often deemed as nearly incompressible far away from the Sun, as…
On the Existence of Fast Modes in Compressible Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence
Zhaoming Gan, Hui Li, Xiangrong Fu +1
We study the existence and property of Fast magnetosonic modes in 3D compressible MHD turbulence by carrying out a number of simulations with compressible and incompressible drivin…
