Shearing Box Simulations of the MRI in a Collisionless Plasma
Prateek Sharma, Gregory W. Hammett, Eliot Quataert +1
We describe local shearing box simulations of turbulence driven by the magnetorotational instability (MRI) in a collisionless plasma. Collisionless effects may be important in radi…

Plasma instabilities and magnetic-field growth in clusters of galaxies
A. A. Schekochihin, S. C. Cowley, R. M. Kulsrud +2
We show that under very general conditions, cluster plasmas threaded by weak magnetic fields are subject to very fast growing plasma instabilities driven by the anisotropy of the p…
