Evolution of Unmagnetized and Magnetized Shear Layers
M. L. Palotti, F. Heitsch, E. G. Zweibel +1
We present numerical simulations of the growth and saturation of the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability in a compressible fluid layer with and without a weak magnetic field. In the absen…

Ideal Internal Kink Modes in a Line-tied Screw Pinch
Yi-Min Huang, Ellen G. Zweibel, Carl R. Sovinec
It is well known that the radial displacement of the internal kink mode in a periodic screw pinch has a steep jump at the resonant surface where …
