Absolute stability of axisymmetric perturbations in strongly-magnetized collisionless axisymmetric accretion disk plasmas

C. Cremaschini, J. C. Miller, M. Tessarotto

The physical mechanism responsible for driving accretion flows in astrophysical accretion disks is commonly thought to be related to the development of plasma instabilities and tur…

The kinetic theory of quasi-stationary collisionless accretion disc plasmas

C. Cremaschini, J. C. Miller, M. Tessarotto

Astrophysical plasmas in accretion discs are usually treated in the framework of fluid or MHD approaches but there are some situations where these treatments become inadequate and…

An investigation of magnetic field distortions in accretion discs around neutron stars - II. Analysis of the toroidal field component

L. Naso, J. C. Miller

Millisecond pulsars are believed to be old pulsars spun up by a surrounding accretion disc. Magnetic fields are thought to play a leading role in this, both by determining the loca…

Microscopic calculation of the equation of state of nuclear matter and neutron star structure

S. Gandolfi, A. Yu Illarionov, S. Fantoni +3

We present results for neutron star models constructed with a new equation of state for nuclear matter at zero temperature. The ground state is computed using the Auxiliary Field D…

An investigation of magnetic field distortions in accretion discs around neutron stars. I. Analysis of the poloidal field component

L. Naso, J. C. Miller

We report results from calculations investigating stationary magnetic field configurations in accretion discs around magnetised neutron stars. Our strategy is to start with a very…

Axisymmetric gravitational MHD equilibria in the presence of plasma rotation

C. Cremaschini, A. Beklemishev, J. Miller +1

In this paper, extending the investigation developed in an earlier paper (Cremaschini et al., 2008), we pose the problem of the kinetic description of gravitational Hall-MHD equili…
