Morphological Regimes of Rotating Moist Convection
Whitney T. Powers, Adrian E. Fraser, Evan H. Anders +2
Moist convection is a physical process where the latent heat released by condensation acts as a buoyancy source that can enhance or even trigger an overturning convective instabili…
3D Simulations Demonstrate Propagating Thermohaline Convection for Polluted White Dwarfs
Imogen G. Cresswell, Adrian E. Fraser, Evan B. Bauer +2
Polluted white dwarfs (WDs) with small surface convection zones deposit significant concentrations of heavy elements to the underlying radiative interior, presumably driving thermo…
Rapidly Rotating Wall-Mode Convection
Geoffrey M. Vasil, Keaton J. Burns, Daniel Lecoanet +3
In the rapidly rotating limit, we derive a balanced set of reduced equations governing the strongly nonlinear development of the convective wall-mode instability in the interior of…
On the Linear Stability of Partially and Fully Saturated Atmospheres to Moist Convection
Jeffrey S. Oishi, Benjamin P. Brown
We present a linear analysis of a minimal model of moist convection under a variety of atmospheric conditions. The stationary solutions that we analyze include both fully saturated…
The solar dynamo begins near the surface
Geoffrey M Vasil, Daniel Lecoanet, Kyle Augustson +5
The Sun's magnetic dynamo cycle features a distinct pattern: a propagating region of sunspot emergence appears around 30 degrees latitude and vanishes near the equator every 11 yea…
Iterative Methods for Navier--Stokes Inverse Problems
Liam O'Connor, Daniel Lecoanet, Evan H. Anders +5
Even when the partial differential equation underlying a physical process can be evolved forward in time, the retrospective (backward in time) inverse problem often has its own cha…
Internally heated and fully compressible convection: flow morphology and scaling laws
Whitney T. Powers, Evan H. Anders, Benjamin P. Brown
In stars and planets natural processes heat convective flows in the bulk of a convective region rather than at hard boundaries. By characterizing how convective dynamics are determ…
