Steady states of the Parker instability: the effects of rotation

Devika Tharakkal, Anvar Shukurov, Frederick A. Gent +2

We model the Parker instability in vertically stratified isothermal gas using non-ideal MHD three-dimensional simulations. Rotation, especially differential, more strongly and dive…

Steady states of the Parker instability

Devika Tharakkal, Anvar Shukurov, Frederick A. Gent +3

We study the linear properties, nonlinear saturation and a steady, strongly nonlinear state of the Parker instability in galaxies. We consider magnetic buoyancy and its consequence…

Energetic Particle Perpendicular Diffusion: Simulations and Theory in Noisy Reduced Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence

A. P. Snodin, T. Jitsuk, D. Ruffolo +1

The transport of energetic charged particles (e.g., cosmic rays) in turbulent magnetic fields is usually characterized in terms of the diffusion parallel and perpendicular to a lar…

Cosmic rays and random magnetic traps

Devika Tharakkal, Andrew P. Snodin, Graeme R. Sarson +1

The spatial distribution of cosmic ray (CR) particles in the interstellar medium (ISM) is of major importance in radio astronomy, where its knowledge is essential for the interpret…

The Pencil Code, a modular MPI code for partial differential equations and particles: multipurpose and multiuser-maintained

A. Brandenburg, A. Johansen, P. A. Bourdin +34

The Pencil Code is a highly modular physics-oriented simulation code that can be adapted to a wide range of applications. It is primarily designed to solve partial differential equ…

Fickian and non-Fickian diffusion of cosmic rays

L. F. S. Rodrigues, A. P. Snodin, G. R. Sarson +1

Fluid approximations to cosmic ray (CR) transport are often preferred to kinetic descriptions in studies of the dynamics of the interstellar medium (ISM) of galaxies, because they…
