Extended MHD turbulence and its applications to the solar wind

Hamdi M. Abdelhamid, Manasvi Lingam, Swadesh M. Mahajan

Extended MHD is a one-fluid model that incorporates two-fluid effects such as electron inertia and the Hall drift. This model is used to construct fully nonlinear Alfvénic wave sol…

Multi-region relaxed Hall magnetohydrodynamics with flow

Manasvi Lingam, Hamdi M. Abdelhamid, Stuart R. Hudson

The recent formulations of multi-region relaxed magnetohydrodynamics (MRxMHD) have generalized the famous Woltjer-Taylor states by incorporating a collection of "ideal barriers" th…

General Theory of the Plasmoid Instability

L. Comisso, M. Lingam, Y. -M. Huang +1

A general theory of the onset and development of the plasmoid instability is formulated by means of a principle of least time. The scaling relations for the final aspect ratio, tra…

Inertial magnetohydrodynamics

M. Lingam, P. J. Morrison, E. Tassi

A version of extended magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) that incorporates electron inertia is obtained by constructing an action principle. Unlike MHD which freezes in magnetic flux, the…

The action principle for generalized fluid motion including gyroviscosity

M. Lingam, P. J. Morrison

A general set of fluid equations that allow for energy-conserving momentum transport by gyroscopic motion of fluid elements is obtained. The equations are produced by a class of ac…

Action Principles for Extended MHD Models

I. Keramidas Charidakos, M. Lingam, P. J. Morrison +2

The general, non-dissipative, two-fluid model in plasma physics is Hamiltonian, but this property is sometimes lost or obscured in the process of deriving simplified (or reduced) t…
