Spectral Evolution and Current Sheet Analysis as Probes of Reconnection-Mediated Decay in Magnetically Dominated Turbulence
Chandranathan Anandavijayan, Pallavi Bhat
The decay of magnetically dominated turbulence exhibits robust inverse transfer of magnetic energy even in the absence of net magnetic helicity, challenging traditional cascade-bas…
Dynamo and Jet interconnections in GRMHD simulations of black hole accretion disks
P. S. Santhiya, Pallavi Bhat, Prayush Kumar +2
We present global 3D GRMHD simulations of black hole (BH) accretion disks designed to investigate how MRI-driven dynamo action regulates jet formation and evolution. Unlike standar…
Quasi-two-dimensionality of three-dimensional, magnetically dominated, decaying turbulence
Shreya Dwivedi, Chandranathan Anandavijayan, Pallavi Bhat
Decaying magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence is important in various astrophysical contexts, including early universe magnetic fields, star formation, turbulence in galaxy cluster…
Unified treatment of mean-field dynamo and angular-momentum transport in magnetorotational instability-driven turbulence
Tushar Mondal, Pallavi Bhat
Magnetorotational instability (MRI)-driven turbulence and dynamo phenomena are analyzed using direct statistical simulations. Our approach begins by developing a unified mean-field…
Magnetic island merger as a mechanism for inverse magnetic energy transfer
Muni Zhou, Pallavi Bhat, Nuno F. Loureiro +1
Magnetic energy transfer from small to large scales due to successive magnetic island coalescence is investigated. A solvable analytical model is introduced and shown to correctly…
Large scale dynamo action precedes turbulence in shearing box simulations of the magnetorotational instability
Pallavi Bhat, Fatima Ebrahimi, Eric G. Blackman
We study the dynamo generation (exponential growth) of large scale (planar averaged) fields in unstratified shearing box simulations of the magnetorotational instability (MRI). In…
