Magnetic Flux Transport by turbulent reconnection in astrophysical flows
Elisabete M. de Gouveia Dal Pino, Márcia R. M. Leão, Reinaldo Santos-Lima +3
The role of MHD turbulence in astrophysical environments is still highly debated. An important question that permeates this debate is the transport of magnetic flux. This is partic…
The role of turbulent magnetic reconnection on the formation of rotationally supported protostellar disks
R. Santos-Lima, E. M. de Gouveia Dal Pino, A. Lazarian
The formation of protostellar disks out of molecular cloud cores is still not fully understood. Under ideal MHD conditions, the removal of angular momentum from the disk progenitor…
Particle Acceleration by Magnetic Reconnection in AGNs and in the IGM
Elisabete M. de Gouveia Dal Pino, Grzegorz Kowal, Alex Lazarian +1
There is no single mechanism by which fast particles are accelerated in astrophysical environments, and it is now recognized that the data require a rich variety of different mecha…
MHD turbulence-Star Formation Connection: from pc to kpc scales
E. M. de Gouveia Dal Pino, R. Santos-Lima, A. Lazarian +3
The transport of magnetic flux to outside of collapsing molecular clouds is a required step to allow the formation of stars. Although ambipolar diffusion is often regarded as a key…
Dynamo in the Intra-Cluster Medium: Simulation of CGL-MHD Turbulent Dynamo
R. Santos-Lima, E. M. de Gouveia Dal Pino, A. Lazarian +2
The standard magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) description of the plasma in the hot, magnetized gas of the intra-cluster (ICM) medium is not adequate because it is weakly collisional. In s…
