A comparison of local simulations and reduced models of MRI-induced turbulence
Pierre Lesaffre, Steven A. Balbus, Henrik Latter
We run mean-field shearing-box numerical simulations with a temperature-dependent resistivity and compare them to a reduced dynamical model. Our simulations reveal the co-existence…

MRI channel flows and their parasites
Henrik N. Latter, Pierre Lesaffre, Steven A. Balbus
Local simulations of the magnetorotational instability (MRI) in accretion disks can exhibit recurrent coherent structures called channel flows. The formation and destruction of the…
