Understanding hydrodynamical wave-driven shear mixing in stellar radiation zones. Looking in the mirror of the dyapicnal oceanic mixing
Stéphane Mathis
Stellar radiation zones play a key role in the long-term magneto-rotational and chemical evolution of stars. As parts of the oceans and of the atmosphere of the Earth, their dynami…
Parametrisation of the wave-zonal flow interactions taking into account the full Coriolis acceleration. The necessity of going beyond the traditional approximation in the sub-inertial regime and in weakly stratified regions
Stéphane Mathis
From the Earth's atmosphere and oceans to stellar radiation zones, inertia-gravity waves, which are called gravito-inertial waves (hereafter GIWs) in Astrophysics, are transporting…
Non-linear evolution of the horizontal shear instability in stratified rotating fluids under the complete Coriolis acceleration
Camille Moisset, Paul Billant, Junho Park +1
This paper investigates the non-linear dynamics of horizontal shear instability in an incompressible, stratified and rotating fluid in the non-traditional -plane, i.e. with the…
Exploring hydrodynamical stellar tachoclines along stellar evolution
Camille Moisset, Stéphane Mathis, Louis Amard
Stellar tachoclines are thin regions located between the radiative core and the convective envelope of solar-type stars. They are defined as layers where the rotation of the radiat…
Vertical shear instabilities in rotating stellar radiation zones: effects of the full Coriolis acceleration and thermal diffusion
Junho Park, Stéphane Mathis
Rotation deeply impacts the structure and the evolution of stars. To build coherent 1D or multi-D stellar structure and evolution models, we must systematically evaluate the turbul…
