Revealing the drag instability in one-fluid nonideal MHD simulations of a 1D isothermal C-shock

Pin-Gao Gu, Che-Yu Chen, Emma Shen +2

C-type shocks are believed to be ubiquitous in turbulent molecular clouds thanks to ambipolar diffusion. We investigate whether the drag instability in 1D isothermal C-shocks, infe…
