Magnetorotationally-Driven Galactic Turbulence and the Formation of Giant Molecular Clouds
Woong-Tae Kim, Eve C. Ostriker, James M. Stone
Using local 3D MHD simulations, we investigate ways in which galactic turbulence associated with the magnetorotational instability (MRI) may influence the formation and properties…

Turbulent Mixing in Clusters of Galaxies
Woong-Tae Kim, Ramesh Narayan
We present a spherically-symmetric, steady-state model of galaxy clusters in which radiative cooling from the hot gas is balanced by heat transport through turbulent mixing. We ass…

Thermal Instability in Clusters of Galaxies with Conduction
Woong-Tae Kim, Ramesh Narayan
We consider a model of galaxy clusters in which the hot gas is in hydrostatic equilibrium and maintains energy balance between radiative cooling and heating by thermal conduction.…
