A misaligned protostellar disk fed by gas streamers in a barred spiral-like massive dense core

Xiaofeng Mai, Tie Liu, Xunchuan Liu +42

High-mass stars, born in massive dense cores (MDCs), profoundly impact the cosmic ecosystem through feedback processes and metal enrichment, yet little is known about how MDCs asse…

Mathematical Aspects of Geophysical and Astrophysical Fluid Dynamics: Magnetic buoyancy instability in galaxies

Yasin Qazi, Anvar Shukurov, Devika Tharakkal +1

We study the nonlinear evolution of the magnetic buoyancy instability in rotating and non-rotating gas layers using numerical solutions of non-ideal, isothermal MHD equations. The…

Fast fitting of spectral lines with Gaussian and hyperfine structure models

Mika Juvela, Devika Tharakkal

The fitting of spectral lines is a common step in the analysis of line observations and simulations. However, the observational noise, the presence of multiple velocity components,…

Nonlinear magnetic buoyancy instability and turbulent dynamo

Yasin Qazi, Anvar Shukurov, Devika Tharakkal +2

Stratified disks with strong horizontal magnetic fields are susceptible to magnetic buoyancy instability (MBI). Modifying the magnetic field and gas distributions, this can play an…

Steady states of the Parker instability: the effects of rotation

Devika Tharakkal, Anvar Shukurov, Frederick A. Gent +2

We model the Parker instability in vertically stratified isothermal gas using non-ideal MHD three-dimensional simulations. Rotation, especially differential, more strongly and dive…

Steady states of the Parker instability

Devika Tharakkal, Anvar Shukurov, Frederick A. Gent +3

We study the linear properties, nonlinear saturation and a steady, strongly nonlinear state of the Parker instability in galaxies. We consider magnetic buoyancy and its consequence…

Cosmic rays and random magnetic traps

Devika Tharakkal, Andrew P. Snodin, Graeme R. Sarson +1

The spatial distribution of cosmic ray (CR) particles in the interstellar medium (ISM) is of major importance in radio astronomy, where its knowledge is essential for the interpret…
