Intermittency in the Multiphase ISM --- I. Extreme Density, Velocity, and Magnetic Fluctuations
Yue Hu
Intermittency is a fundamental property of astrophysical turbulence because it concentrates strong gradients, dissipation, and transport into rare, localized structures. In the mul…
Slow Cosmic-Ray Diffusion in Supersonic and Super-Alfvénic Turbulence
Yue Hu
Extended TeV-PeV gamma-ray halo observations imply cosmic-ray (CR) diffusion that is both substantially slower than the Galactic mean and only weakly anisotropic, despite the prese…
Plasmoid-Mediated 2D Magnetic Reconnection in Partially Ionized Plasmas
Yue Hu, Siyao Xu, Grzegorz Kowal +3
Magnetic reconnection in partially ionized plasmas is an important channel for energy release. While the plasmoid instability is well characterized in 2D fully ionized plasmas, its…
Turbulence Mode Decomposition and Anisotropy in Magnetically Dominated Collisionless Plasmas
Samuel T. Sebastian, Siyao Xu, Yue Hu +3
We use the 3D fully kinetic simulation to study different turbulence modes and turbulence anisotropy of relativistic turbulence in magnetically dominated collisionless plasmas. We…
Mode Energy Partition in Partially Ionized Compressible MHD Turbulence
Yue Hu
We investigate how neutral-ion collisional damping modifies the spectral properties and energy partition of compressible MHD turbulence using a suite of 3D two-fluid simulations. B…
Reconnection-Driven Turbulent Fluctuations in the Magnetically Dominated Collisionless Regime
Yue Hu, Luca Comisso, Lorenzo Sironi +1
Magnetic reconnection is a fundamental plasma process that converts magnetic energy into bulk flow energy, thermal energy, and nonthermal particle acceleration. Despite its importa…
Probing Turbulence, Gravity, Supernovae, and Magnetic Field Effects with the 6D Kinematics of Young Stars in Milky Way Star-Forming Regions
Benjamin N. Velguth, Yuan Li, Trung Ha +6
The dynamics of star forming gas can be affected by many physical processes, such as turbulence, gravity, supernova explosions, and magnetic fields. In this paper, we investigate s…
Dynamics of Multiphase Carbon in the Turbulent Circumgalactic Medium
Yue Hu, Evan Scannapieco, Edward Buie +3
The circumgalactic medium (CGM) plays a crucial role in regulating material and energy exchange between galaxies and their environments. The best means of observing this medium is…
Cosmic Ray Perpendicular Superdiffusion and Parallel Mirror Diffusion in a Partially Ionized and Turbulent Medium
Yue Hu, Siyao Xu, Alex Lazarian +2
Understanding cosmic ray (CR) diffusion in a partially ionized medium is both crucial and challenging. In this study, we investigate CR perpendicular superdiffusion and parallel tr…
Anisotropic Velocity Fluctuations in Galaxy Mergers: A Probe of the Magnetic Field
Yue Hu, Joseph Whittingham, A. Lazarian +3
Magnetic fields and turbulence are fundamental to the evolution of galaxies, yet their precise measurement and analysis present significant challenges. The recently developed Veloc…
Wide-binary eccentricity distribution in young star clusters: dependence on the binary separation and mass
Sajay Sunny Mathew, Siyao Xu, Christoph Federrath +2
We study the wide-binary eccentricity () distribution in young star clusters and the role of turbulence in setting the form of the distribution using magnetohydrodynamical (…
On the properties and implications of collapse-driven MHD turbulence
Enrique Vázquez-Semadeni, Yue Hu, Siyao Xu +2
We numerically investigate the driving of MHD turbulence by gravitational contraction using simulations of an initially spherical, magnetically supercritical cloud core with initia…
The JWST Galactic Center Survey -- A White Paper
Rainer Schoedel, Steve Longmore, Jonny Henshaw +111
The inner hundred parsecs of the Milky Way hosts the nearest supermassive black hole, largest reservoir of dense gas, greatest stellar density, hundreds of massive main and post ma…
An Effective Potential for Composite Operators
Yue Hu
We study the effective potential for composite operators. Introducing a source coupled to the composite operator, we define the effective potential by a Legendre transformation. We…
Bubble Nucleation Rate In Fourth-Order Gravity
Yue Hu
We calculate the bubble nucleation rate in a fourth-order gravity theory whose action contains an term, under the thin-wall approximation, by two different methods. First the…
Dynamical Solutions to the Horizon and Flatness Problems
Yue Hu, Michael S. Turner, Erick J. Weinberg
We discuss in some detail the requirements on an early-Universe model that solves the horizon and flatness problems during the epoch of classical cosmology ($t\ge t_i\gg 10^{-43}\s…
