Suppression of spiral density waves in collisionless accretion flows
Stephen Majeski, Matthew W. Kunz, Jason Dexter
Spiral density waves are ubiquitous phenomena in differentially rotating flows. They are non-modal, non-axisymmetric perturbations that, due to shear in the background flow, posses…
White Dwarf Natal Kicks as Velocity-Space Random Walks. I. Fokker-Planck Theory
Stephen Majeski, Dang Pham, Taeho Ryu +2
White dwarfs are the most common end state of stellar evolution, including that of our own Sun, making their formation critical to completing a more comprehensive understanding of…
White Dwarf Natal Kicks as Velocity-Space Random Walks. II. Binary Stellar Evolution and Observational Kick Constraints
Dang Pham, Stephen Majeski, Taeho Ryu +2
Wide binaries containing white dwarfs (WDs) provide a pathway to exploring post-main-sequence (MS) natal kicks associated with asymmetric mass loss. In this work, we develop a bina…
Reduced Effective Viscosity from Anisotropic Transport and Plasma Instabilities in the Sloshing Cores of Galaxy Clusters
John A. ZuHone, Stephen Majeski, Annie Heinrich +3
The G magnetic field in the intracluster medium (ICM) introduces a pressure anisotropy with respect to the magnetic field's direction that manifests as an anisotropic visco…
